Dissect DJs

We've finally hit Episode 100! And what better way to countdown to triple digits then by dissecting the epic sound of the 80's that is Europe's "The Final Countdown". We try to breakdown what it is that Europe is really counting down to, learn a little about who Europe is, and get into some of our favorite versions of final countdowns. Let's rock to level 100!

We're back to break down Nicki Minaj's 2022 smash "Super Freaky Girl" and compare how it stacks up to the OG version- Rick James's "Super Freak", and even throw in a little MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This" to see who did it best. Is Nicki really the baddest around? Let's dissect and find out!

The Dissect DJs are back with a brand new season! Kicking off with a breakdown of one of the most unstoppable jams of 2023 - Coi Leray's "Players". We discuss the origins of the track dating back to Grand Master Flash's "The Message", the historic nature of this classic beat, and if girls can be players too.

We conclude 80's month by breaking down one of the all-time throwback 80's bangers: The Clash - Rock the Casbah! Did you know the heavy backstory that this song gets into? Did you know the extremely lame story that this song almost got into? We get into all of it and break it down accordingly, alongside our new mascot Dottie!

We're going back to 80's month with a review of one of the most classic throwback sounds in music history with Tears for Fears "Everybody Wants to Rule the World". Does everybody really want to rule the world? Let's discuss!

80's Month keeps trucking along as we attempt to uncover the deeper meaning behind one of the most iconic hits from one of the trademark bands of the entire decade. It's time to dissect Hall & Oates' 1982 classic "Maneater".

We go to London for Track 3 of 80's Month to dissect the Pet Shop Boys' 1985 classic "West End Girls" in attempt to answer all the questions raised in this synth-laden throwback: Who are these guys? Who are the West End Girls? Why are they Pet Shop Boys? Who? Why? When? What? And of course- How farrrr have you beeeeennn?

Pet Shop Boys are NEXT!

80's month rolls on with one of the decade's all-time icons - Madonna, as we break down the deep and some would say controversial backstory of her 1986 classic "Papa Don't Preach". Also, Danny Aiello, a whole lot of Danny Aiello.

80's Month has arrived! And we kick it off with the song that kicked off the 80's infatuation with music videos with The Buggles infamous classic - "Video Killed the Radio Star".

We finally book-end the second half of "Sting Week/Month" and break down The Police's 1979 classic "Message in a Bottle", and try to determine if this song is a true story, a metaphor, or perhaps something much, much deeper... 🤔
