Comments
Love this station- stream the archive all the time, can't get enough of that FuNk. However; I would like to recommend some "Rymesayers" and "Doomtree" I think; if any station would appreciate it, it would be Wefunk.
Ruby Jane never disappoints. Respect!
r.z.a is so awsome I want to cry
The Amy Winehouse remix is by Organized Noize Dungeon Family Remix :)
Great selection from Ruby Jane (again)! Keep Austin Smooooooth
one of my favorite sets in a while! especially ruby jane's picks at the top. well done!
Hi, anyone know who remixed the amy winehouse track at the end of the show? its dope!
wow, that lee fields track is one of the most soulful songs i've ever heard!! great show, nice interview with the "King of Latin Soul."
pozdrav iz Hrvatske!!! ;))
Great Bataan!!! I see his Madrid's concert with Los Fulanos (a spanish boogaloo band) and i get a autograph in a poster!! Is a pleasure earn him still, he's a legend of latin music although concrete people tried to hide him...Respects to Joe and Respects to Wefunk from Madrid (and sorry for my poor english jajaja).
love ruby jane to death like er body else, nobody has the same feel for R&B, but when was the last time y'all had dj fiend do a show??
