The New Music Hour with Mike Lupica

Surprise! What's up, Monday drivetime crowd? I'm delighted to be filling in for this week's edition of WPRB's New Music Hour.

I've got tons of great new releases lined up for tonight's show. Since we have only a limited amount of time together, my plan will be to dispense with the chatter and just stick to what matters which is (of course) the spinning of platters. Say hello in the chat!

YOOOOO

Dang! Helloooooo!!

YO YO YO YO. Good to be hear, gang!

Hello, fellow WPRB Listeners. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I don't think the bagels I ordered for the New Music Hour are going to get here on time.

It's a tale as old as time itself.

Thank goodness it's already 8pm Wednesday night

I was dreading Tuesday

Tuesday is for chumps.

Chewsday innitnot

Thanks for delaying ny departure from work

Is there no radio in your car, Jimbo?

I'm still in my office:(

So am I! Crank it up!

I'll make a break for it when you play a sucky song

going to listen hard to make my work go faster! woooo can't wait to hear all the new stuff I've been missing!

Jim's gonna be stuck at work all night damn

Right on, Jen! Distractify FM is ON THE AIR.

ALL IN

Dat phonky mic break music

WhatTheWho?!?

That's right!

TAndy, that was my mic break music back in the naughty aughties. Seemed like it was worth bringing back tonight.

WHAT UP MRM

I hope this new music hour is four hours long!

The 20 years agos musta been poppin

StitchingPinkDawg was barking about MikeLupica today. I translated the message in the chat. 🤓

WoofWoofWoof

dug that Fuckwolf track and FRANKIEEEEEEE

I can get behind all of this!!!

All hail the Frankie. I ordered this single months ago, but just got an update yesterday they're finally being shipped out. Soon to be appearing in slot J8 in the fabled Starlite Lounge jukebox!

I still think Frankie ATWF sounds like Santana on crystal meth. In a good way.

I'll never get tired of the cursed chalice song

FRANKIE!

DAT RIFF CHANGE, THO

Just thought same! Riffus maximus

Dey muss be pracketin'

This tickles the guitar-fancy inner ear cilia very well (Desumanos)

BIJOU BANGER

Definitely. A record that makes (non-slinger of the axe me) want to take it up.

My pants apparently needed a kick and this show has delivered.

It's a regular pants-kickin' saloon up in here, Jon.

👖 🦵

(No “saloon emoji” ….yet)

⛪️ *serves wine only

Mulled Wine and a Flaming Rum Punch

I’ll have what DJ MikeLupica is having

This Kutiman jam. Wow.

"Bartender, get a lukewarm tap water served in the dark for my friend here."

Right on DubNP!

Never mind. I’ll have what KrystalBeth is having

🚨🚨🚨

Holy Guacamole! I need a copy of this!

My bad! I mis-announced Acid Arab -- they're not from Cairo, but are in face a Paris-based French-Algerian collective. Sorry!

*in fact, not in face

The DJ shoveing the correct fact in our faces

"All corrections served with a pick axe and a kick in the keister"

🤣 @TAndy! Cheers, DJ MikeLupica!

I want this on repeat 🔂 the rest of the day!

About to drive home but what a awesome show.

How do you spell "see Elena"

Wait. Now I want this on repeat 🔂 Git it!

The playlist shows a set break

Try refreshing, Steven. Or view in a private browser window. Should be Homeboy Sandman right now.

I was trying to look up either c elena or see Elena

I refreshed - I see the current song and Acid Arab, preceded by Set Break after Frankie

Kutiman before that

I'm on my phone - am I doing something wrong

I just want to find Elena's album but I missed the name

Sorry -- I didn't play anything by Elena, so not sure what you saw. Was it in the previous show? Maybe check John Tobias' playlist? https://playlists.wprb.com/WPRB/pl/16819837/Total-Tobias?layout=1

Steven, maybe it was Acid Arab feat. Wael Alkak Ya Mahla N ٣ (Trois) 2022

ML, just want you to know this has been the best hour of my day. Thanks for the hot tips!

Omg, I'm a jerk

I'm listening to WFMU

LOL. Tell them I said hello!

Awesome, glad to hear it Jen!

L0LZ

@Steven HAHAHA I just snorted. hi, WFMU!

I thought it was WPRB and they happened to play Acid Arab I think when you did

Now go to their chat and thank DJ MikeLupica for the awesome music!!

HeeHeeHee

srsly GO

Mike Lupica!?!

>:)

😈

I have WFMU as preset 1 on FM1 in my car, WPRB as on FM2

That stinks. Flip it.

Forgive me - your shows also sound a lot alike atm

You have excellent taste in radio!

Thank you, Mike!!

Hilarious inside baseball joke: Former WPRB DJ Olivia (DJ Nostalgia) is hosting the current show on WFMU.

Didn't see that beat coming

Lol, Mike

I’m dead. Again ☠️

HAHAHAHA WPRB is EVERYWHERE

Do they have a chat?! Imma go blow it up with MikeLupica talk.

I think so

Here I go…

Gonna wait for your comment in chat

L0LZ

their chat is packed omg

At least I found the playlist and figured out it's Sea Oleena

Sorry for the intrusion - keep up the good work, Mike. Olivia said she just discovered Sea Oleena yesterday and can't get enough.

It's

a great find

See me TAndy???

Killer show, meester!
