"On Shuffle" is simply what happens to play when you set your iPod on shuffle. It's raw, giving an organic glimpse into someone's style and taste. It may not make sense, but that's the fun of it. Hopefully this series will serve as your afternoon pick-me-up as that is what it's intended to do. And of course give you eight small windows into someone's soul. "On Shuffle" will be DJ'd by various guests. First up ... moi.
1. Time for Livin' - Beastie Boys
2. Unknown Brother - Black Keys
3. All Fired Up - Interpol
4. Check the Rhime - A Tribe Called Quest
5. Ride In the Sky - The Brand New Heavies
6. La conga blicoti - Joséphine Baker
7. Violet - Hole
8. Time & Space - Digable Planets
Listen here.

love the new series idea!
Yes! Love this. Exactly what I need to get me thru Friday!
Brilliant idea, H! The other day I was going to send a tweet that said: A shot of Fun with a Dr. Dre chaser...Cuz that's exactly how I listen to music. Little of this, little of that, makes it all fun.
I love the touch of Joséphine Baker. This is such a fun new series!
oooh, i love this. i always appreciate your music tweets (i've added many songs to my shuffle in result), so this is exciting :).
Oh man, love the Digable Planets ref. Blowout Comb is a favorite.
