Vortex is this SATURDAY!! You read that right! Mimi is DJing the Cleveland Museum of Art's Mix dance night on Friday celebrating Women's History Month with women of the 80s, so we'll be there and then heading down to Columbus Saturday!

And it's going to be warm! Current forecast 74 degrees!

See you on the dance floor! 💃 🕺 🎵 🎶

Hey all! If you're wanting some radio time today, check out an extended AbSynth AlgoRhythm!

Two of my colleagues asked me to fill in before and after my show, so it's going to be a DJ Dynamo megamix! 🥳

Tune in to WRUW FM 91.1 between 6 and 9 this evening, or go to WRUW.org to listen online.

I just agreed to do this, so I don't have a lot of time to plan, which should make it interesting! I might even play some non-synth music! 😯

Catch you then! 🎉🔥
