Then in the chorus the whole track empties out, going from a big cavernous space into a tiny one, driven along by a minimal stuttering synth rhythm.\n\n\"I love the sense of contrast we achieved in this song.

They were both educated at the Latymer Upper School in London.\n\nOriginally, the pair were part of the short-lived indie band Born Blonde, which released one album in 2012. They went on to form Jungle at the beginning of 2013, choosing to put an aesthetic emphasis on the music's surrounding artwork and videos, and not on the pair's own identity. \n\nInitially hiding their names and faces, Josh Lloyd-Watson and Tom McFarland came to be known as J and T. Over the course of the following year, Jungle evolved into a collective by working with different artists across diverse disciplines. https://tinyurl.com/ybf5prew", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3553027, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3553027/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-14T16:54:54-07:00", "show": 64562, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64562/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn721305.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-c83a7647-89c5-4491-a5c8-5773708e033b/mbid-c83a7647-89c5-4491-a5c8-5773708e033b-41979893265_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn721305.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-c83a7647-89c5-4491-a5c8-5773708e033b/mbid-c83a7647-89c5-4491-a5c8-5773708e033b-41979893265_thumb250.jpg", "song": "Sisters", "track_id": "7c6ff518-7f5f-4d14-b0bf-d7d17e16ac5f", "recording_id": "3720eb89-c8c0-417d-853a-8f7c324718c2", "artist": "Sofia Kourtesis", "artist_ids": [ "2f8d2007-7666-45af-89d4-dec4921dce04" ], "album": "Volver", "release_id": "c83a7647-89c5-4491-a5c8-5773708e033b", "release_group_id": "9f8b3609-c58f-4230-a8cd-dcf16d2f6c74", "labels": [ "Ninja Tune" ], "label_ids": [ "dc940013-b8a8-4362-a465-291026c04b42" ], "release_date": "2025-08-01", "rotation_status": "Medium", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "The new EP from Peruvian DJ, producer, and vocalist Sofia Kourtesis is a vibrant collection of contemporary dance music infused with infectious Latin rhythms. \n\nCrafted between her homes in Germany and Peru, she uses her remarkable talents to help listeners move and groove with intent and purpose.\n\nKourtesis shares that Volver is a tribute to the LGBTQ+ community, and to trans women in particular: \"Their bravery and existence in a world full of hate and danger, they find a way to bring the lights to the most vulnerable communities, specifically those that are behind the walls of terrible corruption in the Latino America Security and Health System.\" https://tinyurl.com/ye24fscz", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3553026, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3553026/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-14T16:52:10-07:00", "show": 64562, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64562/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://ia800906.us.archive.org/10/items/mbid-5ea9f825-7bcf-4974-8adc-404d1c22fc39/mbid-5ea9f825-7bcf-4974-8adc-404d1c22fc39-42895384177_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn720709.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-5ea9f825-7bcf-4974-8adc-404d1c22fc39/mbid-5ea9f825-7bcf-4974-8adc-404d1c22fc39-42895384177_thumb250.jpg", "song": "Obsession", "track_id": "756cd368-ede4-406d-be36-8b8902aeac8c", "recording_id": "7c5dea73-bb93-40b3-a6ea-8c89516bce70", "artist": "Oliver Sim", "artist_ids": [ "040cb119-5d70-4f7f-af34-5d1f1c898030" ], "album": "Obsession", "release_id": "5ea9f825-7bcf-4974-8adc-404d1c22fc39", "release_group_id": "fd70ad39-774a-40e2-9a7c-7bd7255c14dd", "labels": [ "Young" ], "label_ids": [ "78cd137b-d2d4-4259-bf25-351d15e7de25" ], "release_date": "2025-08-27", "rotation_status": "Medium", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "It’s been three years since the xx’s Oliver Sim released his solo debut album Hideous Bastard, but he's back with a new track featuring complementary vocals from Katie O’Neill, bringing Sim back into the boy-girl dynamic that works so well in his main band.\n\n\"Obsession\" is, however, a move away from the xx in one important way: It’s his first song ever to not be produced by Jamie xx, but Bullion and Taylor Skye. https://tinyurl.com/3skt4pam", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3553028, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3553028/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-09-14T16:50:32-07:00", "show": 64562, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64562/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Hoogway, Dosi, and Scooby Doo", "artist_ids": [], "album": "Lofi Scooby-Doo", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [ "WaterTower Music" ], "label_ids": [ "a6cbb3d7-6fea-4257-aa79-e1e6bf810da3" ], "release_date": "2025-09-12", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "It’s not entirely clear how this happened, but the beloved mystery-solving cartoon dog Scooby-Doo has now entered the lofi chill-beats music genre that populates so many Spotify playlists.
