KRLX mix #52.5 (2/27/2020)

This bonus edition of Where The Action Was is a veritable 24 Hour Party People of late ’80s-early ’90s indie-rave and Britpop.

Most people will hear this playlist and think of the Madchester scene. Your admin is transported to an office building in suburban Boston, where — courtesy of WFNX — she did paste-up and final-read the Oil Spill Intelligence Report to the sounds of The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, and The Charlatans UK. To those sentimental favorites, DJ Owen adds groove-heavy selections from Blur, Pulp, and St. Etienne to round out the episode.

Even if you forgo the ecstasy, you’ll still be mad fer it.
