There's no guest this week, due to a change of plans. So I picked some tunes that caught my attention as something new, or as something I forgot about but liked.

Included are a couple of local artists, The Philharmonik and Rumi Shimada. Check out the playlist below . Clean your ears, sit back and enjoy.
