Sun, 10/25/2026 - 3:29am | Jojo Johanssen

Sun with Dragon.jpg

Get ready for some eclectic party time music on the next Sonic Rehab! DJJJ has a couple more versions of "Lola's Theme" by the Shapeshifters after playing the orginal version last week, some anime music from Yoshimasa Terui, and even some country for the first time! And of course, plenty more, including a section of music he loved hearing on the radio but seemed to only be played very late at night. Intrigued? Then tune in this Monday from 1-3 p.m. PDT on KDRT 95.7 FM or stream live on kdrt.org.

If you can't listen live (booooooo!) or want to listen again (yaaaaaaay!), you can check it out in the kdrt.org archives for up to 2 weeks after broadcast. d(-_-)b
