In corrolation with The Wire Magazine [http://www.thewire.co.uk/], the distinguished web portal Brainwashed has released "THE BRAIN IN THE WIRE." A 2 CD-set of Dub, Ambient, Out and Hardcore that is scarily good. It arrives free to fortunate US Wire subscribers, or the newsstands of Europe and Asia. But we're also treated to the "THE BRAIN NOT IN THE WIRE" a compilation of all new material which has been kept under wraps until today. Sure to astonish. Enough new music all night, for the first time, we don't even need DJs.

:: 9pm - 1am Featured Album: "Brain in the Wire 3xCD" featuring Bedhead, Cex, !!!, Windy & Carl, Matmos, Fridge, Cyclobe, V/VM, Legendary Pink Dots... on and on

The Beat Happening set the world on its ear. Only an earnest trio, the Beat Happening gave the northwest, and the world, a pop concoction that it had never quite heard before. This was 1983. 5 albums later, they had simply inspired a record label [K], numerous off-shoots [D+, Go Team, Halo Benders] and, incedentally, a pop revolt. The Beat Happening box set contains all five hard-to-get full-lengths, two bonus discs, a 96-page book, catalogued artwork, 45 sleeves and many, many photos... for only $60.00. Impressive to say the least. We'll preview the long-out-of print rarieties selections.

:: 11:30pm - 1am DJ Gibby [Start! Boston, Makeoutclub.com]
