Say hello to our newest DJ! DJ Skeletal hails fro Say hello to our newest DJ!
DJ Skeletal hails from a quaint town down south called The Underworld where it’s warm all year round and an ideal place for bonfires. He recently ascended (his word) to Sitka and has been thrilled with our selection of vinyl from The Velvet Underground, The Zombies, The Five Blobs, Siouxsie & The Banshees and more. He says they remind him of home, and I think that’s quite a compliment. 
His favorite color is bone white, favorite instrument is the xylophone, and his favorite thing to do is ‘scream in the night,’ which I’m sure means that he loves being a late-night DJ. Right??
DJ Skeletal isn’t much of a talker, but he’s at the station 24/7, so if you’re ever in the building, swing by and say hi! Just don’t expect much of a response.
