Hey everyone,

Hopscotch Fest is here, and its already been crazy and tons of fun all at once! We've got some equally awesome programming coming up on WXYC this week, as well. Check it out:

Tonight on the New Science Experience, 10pm to midnight, DJs Alex B and PJ E will be switching off. PJ will be blending some of his original beats with house and hip hop for the first hour. At 11pm, Alex will be spinning on some new CDJs - deep house/grime, bass, and experimental club. 

Sunday's Orange County Special, 11am to 1pm, will be a survey of the locomotive in American folk music. Railroads have been prominently featured in the works of popular art. From the back-breaking labor put into laying the first transcontinental tracks to the wanderlust inspired by their conspicuous passage through cities and towns, trains were a natural inspiration for American artists, especially folk, country, and blues musicians.

This week's Backyard BBQ, Sunday from 8 to 9pm, shall be dubbed the Hopscotch Hangover. Your host won't be hungover, but will play his favorite tunes from his favorite acts at this year's festival.

And on Sports Rap, Sunday from 9 to 10pm, hosts Diego M and Femi Z will be diving deep into NFL hysteria. That means discussion of Tom Brady, Deflategate, and NFL previews. There may be some recap of UNC's first football game too.
