Welcome to the lab where the asphalt meets the atom. Have you heard of a young scientist called Duran Duran? In this week's episode, DJDeedle conducts high-octane experiments in sonic fusion. Forget the Bunsen burners; the real heat comes from the collision of Michael Jackson, John Cougar Mellencamp, and those hungry Wild Boy wolves.

It is a world where The Police patrol the neon-lit streets with T.Rex, and Queen discovers a common frequency with the Beatles. DJDeedle mixes 1980s legends with modern catalysts and reagents, proving that Rick Astley and Ke$ha share a surprising molecular bond. From the classic rock riffs of ZZ Top to the pop alchemy of Britney Spears and Guns n' Roses, every track is a breakthrough in street-level physics. Step into the lab to witness the liquid streetlife where Missy Elliot meets Lipps, Inc., and Lenny Kravitz goes head-to-head with the Princess of Pop. This is not just a playlist: it is a theory of everything.

DJDeedle's been working on this one for so long that the working title was actually, "Going Nowhere." But Hot Diggity! It's finally ready for your discerning and highly tuned ears. DJDeedle is teaching some classic tracks new tricks, blending everyone from Rick Astley and Whitney Houston to the heavy-hitting riffs of AC/DC and Led Zeppelin. You will find Marvin Gaye and Hall & Oates prowling the same territory as 50 Cent and The Muppets in a sonic pedigree that is strictly top-shelf. This may have started out "going nowhere," but it's certainly found its feet. Stop chasing your tail and just hit play.

Life and music are all about choices. But there are always so many options that it can be overwhelming. This week, DJDeedle narrows it down for you, mixes it up for maximum variety, and sends you all over the musical universe. Step into the rabbit hole to navigate a digital overload, a choice between the comfort of the blue pill and the truth of the red. By stripping away the paralysis of indecision, this mix blends the synthetic echoes of Yaz and Tears for Fears with high-energy collisions from The Who and Depeche Mode, transforming a world of chaotic noise into a singular, cohesive journey.

Heavy is the head that wears the headphones. This week's Deedlecast is a sonic coronation where genre boundaries are dissolved, and musical icons are reimagined. This episode is a fever dream of "what if" scenarios brought to life through seamless, high-energy alchemy. Whether you are here for the yacht-funk fusion or the pop-punk-glam hybrids, the hierarchy of sound is yours to command; for the next 45 minutes, you are the one wearing the crown.

While the episode is titled for Dolly, the spirit of the show is hidden in the French soul of Native. In "Emmène-moi," they sing of being a "Princesse pour un soir" (Princess for one night), perfectly echoing the fleeting, royal magic of the episode's theme. When you pair that sentiment with the high-gloss disco energy of France Joli, you get a track that feels like a midnight ball in a Parisian club. It's the moment in the podcast where the "Queen for a Day" title finds its younger, soulful cousin in a "Princess for a Night."

In this week's Deedlecast, mashups meet a musical uprising. Inspired by Tracy Chapman's call for change, we explore every revolution of the record. From Devo to U2, witness a sonic shift where the tables are finally starting to turn.

Just a note to the ultra-sensitive: there are a couple of rude words in this one. 

When icons collide, the magic happens. These high-energy mashups prove that when disparate sounds finally get it together, the results are electric. From James Brown to Prince, dive into an eclectic journey where unexpected pairings find their rhythm and every beat fits perfectly.

This week, thrill to sounds spanning six decades. Precious keepsakes from the past get a touch of today, a gloss of yesterday, becoming more valuable and collectable than ever. Enjoy this collection of Sonic Heirlooms you'll want to treasure forever. 

This week's collection of mashed tunes reminds us that, no matter who, how old, or where you are, you can always go home. The title, of course, comes from a line in "Closing Time," a song by Semisonic, mixed into this show. The song, according to its composer, Dan Wilson, is not really about an ending, the closing of the bar and tossing out all the patrons, but a beginning. DJDeedle hopes this show both reminds you of where you came from and takes you back to a new beginning in the places you will be from. 

From Yes, to Prince, to Lady Gaga, Van Halen, Journey, A-Ha, and Fleetwood Mac, this week's Deedlecast is filled to the brim with pop sounds. DJDeedle ties these sounds together with a dynamic combination of classic and cutting-edge tech, and synth 2026 sounds like the Purple Disco Machine. It's 48 minutes of pure fun.

Back in the 1980s, when we wanted to know what your problem was, we asked, "what's your damage?" This week, no matter what your problem is, these tunes mashed and mixed from the 80s, 70s, 60s, and today will fix your damage. 

In the 1980s, we really walked the walk. And no walk in the 80s would be complete without those amazing tunes. We had the best bands, like Tears for Fears, Spandau Ballet, U2, the Cars, the Pet Shop Boys, and Hall & Oates. And solo singers, like Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Jody Whatly, and Cyndi Lauper were beyond compare. This week, let's take a walk in our top-siders with the curly laces, Chuck Taylors, or your Nike Air Force 1s. Choose your style. 

Back in the day, mashups, audio collages, and cutups were just something you heard on websites that found those special handmade creations for you. One legendary site was "Some Assembly Required." Jon Nelson hosted the nationally syndicated radio program Some Assembly Required from 1999-2011. In Jon's very final episode in 2011, he honored DJDeedle by ending his run with my very own first mashup, "Come Tangerine Together."  The internet has given us so much. But for DJDeedle, the internet is a feast of music.  This Deedlecast episode is dedicated to Jon Nelson and his epic work of bringing the best of internet musical creations to light.  

It's time to get your groove on with his royal highness of sound, the King of Shimmy. Classic kings of shimmy like Roger Miller, Robbie Williams, Bill Withers, Carl Douglas, and the Temptations hold court with their heirs to the throne like Duran Duran, Led Zeppelin, Run DMC, AC/DC, Katie Enlow, CCR, and more to bring the art of the shimmy into the 21st Century.

The world is filled with secrets and mysteries. This Deedlecast has been waiting since Valentine's Day in 2017 to unlock the hidden secrets and tantalizing mysteries of our world, delving deep into the shadows, revealing astonishing truths, and exploring the unexplained, where the extraordinary lies just beneath the surface. Are you ready to uncover the musical wonders within?

He's rebuilt his mixing rig and has put together a Halloween special to celebrate. Ghosts, spirits, monsters, ghouls, and lots and lots of thrilling bits and pieces for your Halloween pleasure. 

Welcome to the Spooky Wonderland. 

He woke us up before we go-go, told us we had to have faith, taught us to listen without prejudice, and had us praying for time, all while desperately wanting our sex. George Michael was taken from us far too soon, along with so many other legends in 2016. This week, DJDeedle presents a short, but sweet, sexy, and seductive tribute to Mr. Seduction himself, the legendary George Michael. 

This week, we celebrate eleven years of Deedlecast. That's eleven years of facing the music together.  This hour-long episode has chills, thrills, spills, and a full-on party like it's 1999. 

It's not a wrong turn. It's a detour. This little detour will take you to a level of fun you've never been to before. Give it a try. See where you end up!

Note - there are some rude words in this one! 

Here it is! The last Deedlecast of 2016. It was a crazy year, and 2017 looks like it may be worse. Throw yourself into some crazy music. If you can't beat the crazy, join it. We are the crazy people.  

This week, DJDeedle brings back those old musical thrills, those songs you loved so much you waited for hours for them to play on the radio. They're back, mashed, remixed, and infused with the thrills you deserve.

It's time to love music again. 

This week on #Deedlecast, it all gets a little dangerous. Throw caution to the wind and indulge in some tricky rhythms, risky beats, and perilous combinations. You won't know what hit you. You're in for thrilling ride.

The danger's baked in. It's not a bug, it's a feature.  

Don't be a slave to fickle fashion. Musical styles and trends come and go, ebb and flow, go in and out of fashion. Don't be afraid to let your hair down, cut lose, and enjoy a little Deedlecast style. 

It's time to flip on some 80s radio goodness for the 21st Century.  It's a dead man's party that will have you dancing like a maniac on the floor. 80s flavor. 2016 style.

It's time to put some balance into your music. This week, some point-counterpoint. A little music to keep you on your toes all weekend. Are you sitting comfortably? Good. Now let's begin. 

Radical, wicked, groovy, far-out, totally awesome, bitchin' tunes transcend time and land right in your ears this week on Deedlecast. From the 80s to today, this collection of gnarly classics runs from the radical to the righteous.  It's not vicious or malicious, just lovely and delicious.  

It's class reunion time again!  This week, Deedlecast salutes the class of 1986 by bringing back those beloved sounds from the 1980s once again.  Of course, these reminiscent tunes aren't exactly as you heard them on your LPs and cassette tapes.  This mixtape has the benefit of 30 years of technology to give them that little extra something. 80s tunes aren't oldies! The 80s still rule. 

Now listen to this! Deedlecast is back with the usual unusual sound you love. No need to decode what's being said, it's all spoken in tongues and will be clear to you by the end of the show! 

Programming note: "Decade" is NOT the final Deedlecast, but does mark the last weekly Deedlecast. Don't worry! Deedlecast will go on, but on a less regular schedule. 

This week, DJDeedle salutes David Bowie, a musical genius from another planet who inspired so many.  

A hui hou, Ziggy Stardust! 

It's time to get emergent.

Of course, if you should experience an erection lasting longer than four hours, definitely seek medical assistance! 

This week, Deedlecast is heeding the disco call. Chock full of classic disco beats. funky rhythms, freaky combinations.  It's time to get down and get your freak on.  

If you don't have something nice to say about someone, come sit by me.  

We still have a full year left to face the music together.  Let's celebrate!  

Welcome to the house of the "Wicked & Lazy."

This week's Deedlecast takes aim at all those great Bond songs. Take a stroll down "Bond Street" and relive 50 years of shaken, not stirred.  

Let DJDeedle take you to where the sound is always lush, warm, and full of energy. Welcome to “Boogie Paradise.”   

Though High Times span generations, the clock always reads 4:20, and it's perpetually the time of the season to indulge in a little California dreaming.  Just a word of warning as you listen to this Deedlecast, there are a couple of rude words, and always remember what the doormouse said, "Feed your head!" 

Sex, drugs, and rock n' roll. This remixed and remastered classic Deedlecast from July 17, 2009 has it all. 

Ill behavior warning:  This Deedlecast has a rude word or two! 

To be truly part of the MTV generation, one has to remember the excitement when MTV dawned, and VJs ruled the television, serving us hour after hour of brit pop, synth pop, new wave, rock, and even some mainstream rap (and ultimately some hip-hop).  New artists, like Madonna, Cindy Lauper, Bryan Adams, and Thomas Dolby arrived on our screens, daily.  And groups like Yaz, U2, Duran Duran, Wham, the Cure, the Smiths, and the Police echoed from every school dance, prom, and boom box.  

This week, DJDeedle salutes his generation, the MTV generation.  We're responsible for all those one-hit wonders from the 80s we now hear in elevators and waiting rooms everywhere. 

The influence of the Supremes was vital in shaping the Motown sound and R&B. Similarly, the influence of Diana Ross and her solo work on R&B and Disco cannot be understated.  The sounds they pioneered can be found throughout today's music, and modern musicians, both female and male, owe them a debt of gratitude for their groundbreaking work. This week, DJDeedle salutes the queens of popular music, both as a group and in their solo careers, the supremely special Supremes.

If you want to experience the full aural experience, listen to this one with headphones!

Don't stop. Just don't.  

Note:  Rude words in this one

It's time to implement "Plan 9" from DJDeedlespace.  

No matter what kind of robot you happen to be, this Deedlecast will speak to you. All robots depicted in this Deedlecast are purely fictional, and have no relation to me. 

Join DJDeedle as he chills in the warmth of the sun.  

Enjoy this remastered and remixed Deedlecast classic from December 2009.  

Now you can have kaleidoscope ears to go with those famous kaleidoscope eyes.

Remember, as Richard Buckminster Fuller, the inventor of the Bucky Ball,  famously said, “There is no such thing as a failed experiment, only experiments with unexpected outcomes.”

This week's Deedlecast experiment is just one of those unexpected outcomes. 

There are as many ways to love New York as there are things to love about New York.  One of the things DJDeedle loves about New York is its sound.  In the same way the city's diverse inhabitants mix and mingle in to make New York one of the most extraordinary places on Earth, the diverse sounds and musical styles of the city, from the refined and classic to the gritty and cutting edge, come together into something compelling and fresh.  

Just how do you love New York?

Warning:  New York style language throughout this Deedlecast. 

So whether you've been facing the music with DJDeedle every Friday since 2006, or you've joined us along the way, many thanks, and much love.  Join the party - already in progress.  

Don't worry. You'll still be able to face the music every Friday, even while DJDeedle's resting.  Each week during the break, we'll feature a classic Deedlecast, remastered and re-released.  The break will be a great time for those of you who've tuned in for years to rehear some of those great old shows.  For those of you who are newer to Deedlecast, you can discover some great shows from the archive that you've missed.  

Whether you're laughing through the snow or at the beach, your holiday is about to get cool, seriously seasonally cool.  

This week, DJDeedle pops those totally awesome 80s tunes. Classic pop really does rock.

This week's "Reunion" is full of surprises. 

This week, the Doc is in.  

Remember, if you can't break the system, own it.  

Welcome to The System.  

Who would have thought all those years ago that Deedlecast would attract a global audience of hundreds of thousands getting their weekly Deedlecasts via RSS, web, Twitter, Google+, Facebook, email, and Android and iOS apps?
