POP 88 #50 – Special Non-Stop FemBOTmix This is my first time using Ableton for a Non-stop mix. You’d think beat matching software would be easier (PLo balked when I told him I was about to go back to Garageband *thehorror!thehorror!* Really, I just need more time to practise.) And while I don’t have much of an excuse for my absence between podcasts, let’s just say that I’ve finally found some juice to keep me going for at least 50 more episodes.

In this episode, you’ll have to excuse the FANGIRL in me as I play the latest music from AFTER SCHOOL including their collaboration with Namie Amuro.
