As always Hot Tub Johnnie kicked off with a rousing set of new tunes you all should dig into. He dove right in with the latest from These United States “Dead & Gone”, brand new IkE NicE “Pop That Bottles” another banger from our favorite Spanish DJ/producer Sak Noel “Paso (The Nini Anthem)” and also previewed 1 of 3 video picks of the week – Kid Mac’s addictive Summer Jam “She Goes Off” (feat. Mickey Avalon) plus many more new cuts you should hear!
Our featured industry special guest of the night was none other than renowned Music Supervisor and Queen of Clearance, Tracy McKnight (Head of Film & TV, Lionsgate). Tracy had just finished supervising the record breaking blockbuster film Hunger Games and prepared a special handpicked DJ Set of her favorite cuts off the #1 selling Soundtrack. The featured gems in her set were Arcade Fire’s single “Abraham’s Daughter”, KiD CuDi’s “The Ruller and The Killer”, Punch Brother’s “Dark Days” and the amazing Birdy with her song “Just A Game”. Tracy was also the very first person to ever play Taylor Swift on the HP airwaves…yes Taylor’s Hunnypot Cherry was broken! Overall one of the best interviews we have had on Hunnypot, so if you missed it, head over to the Hunnypot Radio page and check out the entire interview!
Our musical guest of the night was the up and coming Detroit piano duo, Mr. Piano Killer. The boys played a smoothed out set of chill piano jams layered with soothing vocals that perfectly laced the steaming Hunnypot crowd. Be sure to check out their set for their performance of “Broken Wing” and a killer rendition of Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games”!
