THE JUNK DRAWER
STAFF SHOW: Seraphim Bear
Indie/miscellaneous radio streaming with occasional introductions between each song, taken predominantly from the most obscure music I find in my collection of vintage cassettes that I turn digital, as well as the occasional requests.

Loud Noises
Daniel Woo
DJ set, various genres from dariacore/hyperflip to japanese electronic hardcore to anime music/jpop to dubstep to uptempo hardcore... maybe even calmer sounds like shibuya-kei, house, etc. Generally whatever is in my library but it's most likely japanese influenced and fast-paced. Also potential for shitpost-esque music and bootleg remixes. bottom line is, i want to string together a bunch of weird sounds and make people confused but bop their heads at the same time

Games You Ain’t nEver Heard Of
Nick Murillo
In this show, I would gather hits from various video games from vast genres with a common theme grouping each session together. The first show would be Hype Music from games like Jet Set Radio, Guilty Gear, Hotline Miami, Touhou, Ultrakill and maybe even things like Doom or Persona. The makeup of this show depends on how DJ'ing at WSVA works in my opinion.

In the Stars with AnDy Rahl
Andy Rahl
Tune into Andy Rahl’s cosmic forecast and learn about the planets and how Big Daddy Saturn transiting the 7th house of community is actually messing us all up? A astrology talk show with music intermissions between topics. Main topic would be a summary of all major planet transit accruing. In a way it’s like a weather planet but just for planets, and the rain is actually Venus telling to put off school work so you can call your ex. This is strictly for entertainment purposes. Any predictions that ‘occur’ afterwards is by sheer coincidence.
