Last Wednesday, Radio Rose invited us into the studio to keep her company while she recorded one of her upcoming interweb radio programs, “Girl’s Town” for Children of Da Curb and PNC Radio. The studio is in DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), and had a stupendous view. I even finally got to see the NYC Waterfalls by Olafur Eliasson - so exciting! Recording the show was lots of silly fun - it was a full on dance party with tons of old school freestyle or as Rose calls it, Puerto Rican R&B with lots of 80s dance tunes thrown in for good measure. The show won’t go live for a few weeks but we’ll let you know when it launches - stay tuned! Many thanks to Rose for inviting M.I.S.S.! Check out more pics and some video of the dance party after the jump . . .
