Guitar and Other Machines || Leaving Records & Friends || 12/15/2025

The Guitar and Other Machines is produced by DJ Steena who leverages the freeform format of noncommercial FM radio to get the music and sounds created by underrepresented and lesser known artists into unsuspecting ears as an ongoing audio art project always erring on the experimental.
