SOPA BLACKOUT DAY

The Eastern Hemisphere is broadcasting this evening, but there will be no playlist published on this blog in protest of the Stop Online Piracy Act.

Support Middle Eastern and world music, and tell your local politicians not to support SOPA. Dick Durbin, Mark Kirk -- cut it out, dudes. Not cool.
