It’s fun time for internet radio programming this Friday as we offer up a classic episode of MIRRORBALL and a BRAND NEW edition of Sydney’s Big Electric Cat. The AIR is PopCult‘s sister radio station. You can hear these shows on The AIR website, or just click on the embedded player found on this very page.
At 2 PM, Mel Larch goes back to September, 2022 for a classic episode of MIRRORBALL! The AIR’s showcase of classic Disco music presents a wild collection of classic Disco tracks from the golden era of people dancing in dark rooms on cocaine.
For one hour you can go back to the Golden Age of Disco, where the sideburns were long, the skirts were short and the dancing was endless.

At 3 PM, it’s Big Electric Cat time as Sydney Fileen delivers a special mixtape edition of her show that pays tribute to one Stuart Leslie Goddard…or as you may know him, Adam Ant.
Sydney brings you two hours of Antmusic, spanning from the pre-fame “Dirk Wears White Socks” days to the Burundi-beat hits with Adam & the Ants and his solo days with even more big hit tunes as seen on MTV (back when they played music videos).
You can travel back to a time when cultural appropriation was a fashion statement and folks pledged alliegence to an Insect Nation. Sydney brings you all the hits from 1978 to 1985, plus some great deep album cuts and a few dance mixes and rare recordings.
