Hey everyone,

I’ve got just a few updates on WXYC’s programming for you this week. Check it out:

Tune in to tonight's Inside Track at 9pm to hear Brazilian producer Sango’s third album of funk carioca/instrumental hip-hop, Da Rocinha 3. Plenty of featured rappers here, but the focus is certainly on samples and faced paced, trap-influenced drums and bass.

Tonight’s New Science Experience will feature a set by local DJ Mike D! Tune in for some sick house & techno, 10pm to midnight!

This month, WXYC Reports discusses race relations in Chapel Hill through the partnership of three area churches, the Marian Cheek Jackson Center, and communities they serve. You can catch the segment this Sunday from 5 to 6pm!

And tune in to this Monday's Outside Track to hear Shake!, the latest from Scandinavian free jazz fusion trio The Thing. They augment their brand of European free jazz with distorted electric bass and loose rhythmic grooves reminiscent of a dirtier, more chaotic Zu. Or, to put it another way, they’re a band that’s covered both Ornette Coleman and Lightning Bolt.
