With drum and keyboard loops influenced by the burgeoning house and early 90s dance scene, BTWN shows off Bowie’s penchant for melodic hooks and Rodgers talent for infectious grooves, but the spotless production ended up sacrificing some of the emotion and left us feeling a bit cold, despite the inspired cover choices.</font></p><p style="text-align: center; margin: 15px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; line-height: 21px; vertical-align: baseline;"><font size="2">Songs in this Episode:</font></p><font size="2"></font><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Intro - Black Tie White Noise</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">10:44 - The Wedding Song</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">13:33 - I Know It’s Gonna Happen</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">18:41 - Don’t Let Me Down and Down</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Outro - Jump They Say</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <div style="color: rgb(76,76,76); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17.2032px; background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <span style="line-height: 17px;">Follow on </span><a href="https://twitter.com/digmeoutpodcast" title="">Twitter </a><span style="line-height: 17px;">/ </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/DigMeOutPodcast" title="http://" style="font-family: Arial, Verdana; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal;">Facebook</a> </div> <div style="color: rgb(76,76,76); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17.2032px; background-color: rgb(255,255,255);"> <div></div> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"></p> <div></div> <p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"></p> <div> <a href="http://www.digmeoutpodcast.com/requestareview" title="http://" style="line-height: 17.2032px;">Request a 2016 Review</a> / <a href="https://www.patreon.com/digmeout" title="http://" style="line-height: 17.2032px;">Subscribe at Patreon</a> </div> </div> </div>
