  • Beastie Boys - Check Your Head
    Beastie Boys - Check Your Head
    Jun 18, 2026, 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM
    Beastie Boys’ Check Your Head is a fuzzed-out, skate-rat jam session where punk attitude, boom-bap beats, and funky basslines collide in a basement-sized explosion of cool. Lo-fi, loose, and effortlessly raw, it’s a cratedigger’s fever dream with three MCs who refuse to be boxed in. Hosted by Brian

    Jun 18, 2026, 9:00 PM – 10:30 PM
    Joji leans into fractured production and detached emotion, turning hazy alt-pop into something cold, restless, and strangely intimate. The record trades polish for atmosphere, capturing isolation with a sound that feels both digital and deeply human. Hosted by Brian.

    Gerry Mulligan - Night Lights
    Jun 19, 2026, 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM

    Jun 20, 2026, 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
    Released in 1971, both elegiac and sweet, Blue remains a favorite of the artist's oeuvre, and with percussive acoustic guitars and lyrics such as "I wanna talk to you/I wanna shampoo you" it's easy to see why. This session will feature a 2018 AAA remaster. Hosted by Dana.

    Jun 20, 2026, 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM
    James Blake pares everything back to fragile piano-led sketches and submerged electronics, framing emotional exhaustion as something delicate rather than dramatic. Trying Times feels like a late-night document of uncertainty, where space and silence work as hard as melody. Hosted by Brian
