It's been a busy week on the air and on the web - let's run it down...

• Studio 11's been poppin' for the last week, with plenty of guests coming by The Music Vox to talk shop and show us the goods.  DJ Eksbe took over the 1s and 2s on Friday night to deliver a signature blend of indie, nu disco, electro, dubstep and house; and Pilsen's own Bob Rok dropped by on Monday to show off his blend of jazz and hip-hop.
• Live From Studio 10 was a show-stopper this week, with Chicago legends Funkadesi coming in to blow the roof off.  They're celebrating their 14th year with an all-out anniversary spectacular this Saturday, Dec 11th, at Martyr's Pub so be sure to check that out.  Guaranteed spectacle.
• Gowhere Hip Hop keyed us in to what was hot in the world of hip hop, delivering new cuts from B.O.B., B.X.C., and 2Pak as well as news on releases from Mikkey Halsted and A Tribe Called Quest.
• Jim and Greg from Sound Opinions were lucky to have an in-depth, feature interview with James Murphy, the man behind LCD Soundsystem and one of the founders of the DFA record label.  He's been responsible for some of the best dance music of the past decade, and the interview hinted at what's to come in the future.  Check it out here.
• Brazilian psych was the name of the game on Radio M this week, as host Tony Sarabia revisited a live in-studio performance by MoMo.  Their sound is sometimes dark, sometimes cinematic and always engaging - you can hear the performance (along with more amazing music from around the world) right here.
• Vocalo blogger Jim Derogatis dropped by Eight Forty-Eight this week to talk about the City of Chicago's potential move to privatize its summer festival series.  He and Laurence Msall, president of the Civic Federation talked about how privatizing festivals could affect not only the city's bottom line but also the festival-going experience.  You can listen to the segment right here.  Eight Forty-Eight also played host to DJ Resistall 5000 as part of their ongoing Friday morning DJ Series.  His specialty is Spanish rock and roll, and he showed up with a crate of sides from We Are Wolves, Panico, Gustavo Cerati and more.  Check out his interview and set here. 
• Music was bumping on the web as well... Jon Wurster - comedian, writer, and drummer for indie rock legends Superchunk - dropped by to set the record straight on Wikipedia Files; and Chicago's own The Astronomer took to the seas on the tall ship Windy as part of our Pirate Radio performance series.

So much good music to check out!  Keep it locked for next week, which will prove to be just as deep.  In the meantime, peep our top spins for this week right here.
