FMD: 2020 Guest DJs

Okay, here we go (finally). Like last year, we're going to have to play a little catch-up, but we'll get there.

Out of the volunteers, Algonad, CarterHayes, Daneekas Ghost, MagUidhir, Rhubarb_Runner, Twayn, and Zack all make the cut as they did not DJ last year.

Out of the remaining, I am removing Zee German (sorry, bro) as he is the only of last year's DJs to have gone two years in a row. So, there are 6 volunteers left for four spots.

Per usual, handles will be placed in alphabetical order, and a random sequence of numbers will be generated and that order will be matched to the alphabetical list of names. Numbers 1-4 are in, and 5 and 6 will have to wait until next year:

A similar method* was used to decide the order, and here are you 2020 Guest DJs!

February 24 - March 21: MagUidhir
March 16-22: Zack
April 6-12: Algonad
April 20-26: Beau
May 11-17: nibbish
June 15-21: CarterHayes
July 13-19: davidwatts
August 10-16: Rhubarb_Runner
September 14-20: Twayn
October 12-18: Daneekas Ghost
November 16-22: Philosofer
December: Best of 2020

*The random sequence for the months was run continuously until Rhu_Ru got the August spot, per his request

Oh, and drop your lists.

Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets – “Love Starvation”

We live in an online world that's controlled by algorithms. There's not much I can do to stop it, I mostly just roll my eyes at what these algorithms think I like. A flying vacuum? Sign me up for 5! 26 hour a day all Christmas music station? Hook it straight into my veins!

But, every once in a while these algorithms get it right. "Love Starvation" popped into my YouTube recommended videos and since it was Nick Low I gave it a click. I loved this song five seconds into it. Instantly bought the Love Starvation/Trombone EP and played it about 500 times. Here is a live performance of that song. I hope you enjoy!

Best of 2019: Lana Del Rey “California”

I find LDR's live performances hard to watch and her recent videos only OK. I think it's that her voice sells so much irony that her face doesn't convey.
But her record is fantastic, so here's a fan video (despite the "official" in the video title). Song selection driven in part by wanting to keep it clean.
