Roster

The lists we program by hand.

Each narrow enough that a listener knows what they opened. Play them, then send the record you think belongs.

Trap-Soul & Late Night R&B

Slow, low-lit R&B for the hours after midnight. Heavier on vocals than drums.

Request to be on this

Songs Weeknd fans would love

Nocturnal, synth-lit R&B for anyone who wore House of Balloons through. Moody by default.

The room, not the timeline.
