With Bani

welcome to bani's bops, a bi-weekly show featuring all the bops i care to feature that week!

in any case, i hope my playlist resonates with you in some way

Dusty Bani's

We at WPRB take tons of care to maintain our studio and records, but every now and then, some records fall through the cracks, NOT DAMAGED, but rather, dusty... we will be listening to the most physically dusty records I can find in the WPRB collection!

Bring on the dust. This is a really fun lineup!!

Thank you so much Rebecca!!

Thanks for the great tunes Bani

Winter is getting me down :( but I'm enjoying your playlist at work rn :)

Hi Bani!

Omg thank you Em! Yeah it is quite cold already:( but the holidays are coming! And maybe we'll get some pretty snow!

Hi Ossy!! How are you?

Great as the sunny bhreezy morning! How are things?

Two weeks back, this DJ, Talltrees had a video game music show and he played Pauline's Song from Mario Odyssey! https://playlists.wprb.com/WPRB/pl/18098954/Through-the-Jungle?layout=1

yesss i think about how boring the word 'interesting' is all the time !!!

Oh WOW Ossy- I can't believe I missed this show- it's all my favorite games :(((

And yes Em! It is truly the least interesting word!!

im curious how the party version of this song is different from the original :0 I'll have to look it up later

Bani - I wasn't even exprecting on a video game show and rarely tune in on Friday mornings, til I saw that via wprb's IG! So many game sounds they played, like Zelda, Kirby Forgotten Land, Mario Galaxy etc

Oh for sure, I think the party mix is bass boosted and possibly loses a verse?

yess i love a good seagull outro

And yes!! I recently deleted insta so I am missing the posts, but I'm so glad you caught it and shared it with me! 100% listening to that playlist later today

Bani - Same sad reaction when I missed Deirdre's video game show, last August, was totally unaware and they were expecting me :( https://playlists.wprb.com/WPRB/pl/16261768/The-Lights-Are-On-But-Everyone-s-Home?layout=1

Oh yea, happy to help and share! :)

AW NO we always know you're with us Ossy!! even if you miss a show hehe

and back to the seagull outro, yes, it is always iconic haha

this show has been fantastic!! total trip down memory lane with a good number of tracks I never heard before.

Thank you so much Colin!! I'm so glad you're enjoying it!

So many bands that played at City Gardens in Trenton, years ago. And all of the lost SST stuff. Lots of angst here. Love it! Thank you, Bani.

Aww I'm so glad these songs/artists meant so much to so many of y'all!! I'm so happy :))

Oh Ossy sorry! I missed your message! Also that page shows me a 404 unfortunately, but I will take your word for it!!

Funny I didn't see a 404 on my end lol. Resending a general, https://www.google.com/search?q=warioware+mona+gold&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwig8-rNs8aCAxU-NlkFHTPAC2AQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=warioware+mona+gold&gs_lcp=CgNpbWcQAzIGCAAQCBAeMgYIABAIEB4yBggAEAgQHlCFF1jKGmDiG2gAcAB4AIABWIgB9QKSAQE1mAEAoAEBqgELZ3dzLXdpei1pbWfAAQE&sclient=img&ei=3O5UZaCVGb7s5NoPs4CvgAY&bih=954&biw=1912#imgrc=31-8EuLb8QlxnM

STOPPP THE LUMAS ThEY ARE SO CUTE

OOOOO, now that you said it, heard of the new upcoming Disney movie, Wish? There's a star that looks EXTREMELY SIMILAR to Lumas!!

I did see that, but I do not trust that star- it seems suspicious.....

On IG stories I did that Luma gif with Gladys Knight's song "Makings Of You" ❤️🧡💛💚💙🩵💜

awwww

Bani - Hmm, that Wish Star was scary?

not scary but i'm keeping my eye on it👀

Then again, appearances are deceptive, which are common. Plus, also saw the Inside Out 2 trailers, if you heard.

Oh yeah, remember Bellwether the scary lamb from Zootopia, who was cute on the outside, but inside dangerous and mean

lol bellweather was so funny! and yes I saw a headline about inside out 2 but I haven't watched the trailer
