On tonight’s “Static” program (Thursday 20th February) …

We were devastated earlier this week to learn of the passing of legendary UK musician, producer, remixer, festival curator, radio show host and raconteur Andrew Weatherall.
The Guv’nor was a close friend of “Static” – he guest-programmed our show on a couple of his visits – and we’ll pay tribute to this irreplaceable rogue agent this evening.
Listen back to his guest-program shows from 2012 here and 2014 here.

We’ll also chat to LA’s chill-rock aces Allah Las, who are in Sydney off the back of last year’s laidback “LAHS” album …

Plus we’ll be spinning brand new music from the likes of Tame Impala, RVG, Pale Blue, The Orielles and more …
