Tonight on Radical Creatives!

🎧Join DJ StaRJay tonight from 10 PM to midnight for an electrifying live mix on Radical Creatives—only on KSVY Sonoma! This set features a pulse-pounding blend of genres with tracks from Halluci Nation and Northern Cree, blending Indigenous rhythms with high-energy EDM. You’ll also hear the lyrical fire of Gizzle, the funk-rock grooves of Redbone, the didgeridoo-infused sounds of Didjworks, and Superman's mix of hip-hop and Native beats. Beat's Antique will bring their fusion of world music and electronic bass, while Space Wizard and Aliens take you on a psychedelic, bass-heavy trip, and Skoden adds some heavy dubstep and trap energy.

Get ready for two hours of Tribal House, bass drops, and cultural fusion that celebrates radical self-expression.
