INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY

Once again, all the lights are…wait, it turns out the lights are actually on this week.  Though, as usual, it remains completely silent.  DJ 3000′ boots up…

…to realize that the studio remains empty.

DJ 3000′: [checks calendar] OH, THAT’S RIGHT, HE’S STILL OFF IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

Suddenly, the “incoming call” button on DJ 3000”s console lights up. 

— video call flies open —

HUNTER RENFROW: Greetings from Myrtle Beach!

DJ 3000′: HEY THERE.  HOW’S THE VACATION RENTAL?

HUNTER RENFROW: It’s great!  We’re just a five minute walk away from the beach, and there’s a shuttle bus that brings you straight to the boardwalk. Check it out!

HUNTER RENFROW pans the camera around to show his surroundings.

HUNTER RENFROW: They’ve got this vintage arcade here that takes quarters so you can pretty much play all day.  I’m getting really good at Galaga.

DJ 3000′: SOUNDS LIKE FUN. SO WHAT PROMPTED THE CALL? DID YOU NEED A BREAK FROM MAKING OUT WITH COUSIN HAZEL?

HUNTER RENFROW: Cut it out, she’s not even here. I called because I, uh, need a favor.

DJ 3000′: [sighs] OH BOY.

HUNTER RENFROW: So I met this girl…

DJ 3000′: OF COURSE YOU DID. SHE’S FROM MYRTLE BEACH, SHE’S A MODEL, YOU WOULDN’T KNOW HER.

HUNTER RENFROW: Actually, she is local.

DJ 3000′: [engages BRO module] IS SHE HOT?

HUNTER RENFROW: She’s okay.  You know that episode of Futurama where President Nixon gives everyone a three hundred dollar tax rebate, and Professor Farnsworth uses it on an age-reversing therapy and starts hanging out with…

DJ 3000′: [displays spinning wheel icon]

HUNTER RENFROW: …okay so you know the girl he starts dating, April? She looks like her.

DJ 3000′ pulls up the image on his main display.

DJ 3000′: WAIT…BEFORE OR AFTER THE TREATMENT WEARS OFF?

HUNTER RENFROW: Um…kind of in between. Anyways, she’s really into music.  So I was trying to impress her and I told her that I work for KDFO and she said “terrestrial radio sucks, it’s all just corporate playlist crap these days” and I was like “not us, we broadcast whatever we want,” and she was like “you’re so full of shit, prove it,” and I was like “all right, let’s make it a bet,” and then she said that if I could get you to play her request then she’d go watch the sunset with me from the pier. And she heavily implied that making out was on the table.

DJ 3000′: OH HUNTER, YOU’RE GOING TO BREAK POOR COUSIN HAZEL’S HEART.

HUNTER RENFROW: Shut up! Can you do it?

DJ 3000′: PLAY HER REQUEST? SURE, AS LONG AS IT FITS THE THEME. WHICH I PRESUME YOU CAME UP WITH AND FORGOT TO EMAIL ME.

HUNTER RENFROW: Actually, I did.  It’s “flings”.

DJ 3000′: LIKE, VACATION ROMANCES?

HUNTER RENFROW: Yeah.  And any relationship that has a time limit.  Like soldiers going off to war and stuff.

DJ 3000′: COOL, THAT SHOULD WORK. SO WHAT’S HER REQUEST?

HUNTER RENFROW: She said it’s a really obscure Swedish band and you’ve probably never heard of them.

DJ 3000′: I HAVE DATABASE ACCESS TO PRETTY MUCH EVER BAND IN THE HISTORY OF RECORDED MUSIC, SO THAT SEEMS DOUBTFUL. WHAT GENRE?

HUNTER RENFROW: Well, she’s really into vintage punk.  And vintage techno.  And vintage techno-punk.

DJ 3000′: AH. SO SOMETHING BY THE NEKTROMANTIKS? OR THE PROPELLERHEADS? OR MAYBE SOMETHING FROM THAT COLLABORATION THAT SHITPOPE DID WITH THE HORSEHEAD COLLECTIVE?

HUNTER RENFROW: She says they’re called “Ace of Base.”

DJ 3000′: DUDE.

HUNTER RENFROW: So you have heard of them.

DJ 3000′: [sighs]

HUNTER RENFROW: Come on, man. Please?

DJ 3000′: UGH, FINE, I’LL GIVE IT A SPIN.  BUT YOU OWE ME.  BIG TIME.

Today’s theme is “Flings”.  We’re looking for songs about short-term and/or time-limited relationships.  Please post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHU(k!NrUn” and they should embed in the comments after you refresh.  Last week’s puzzle answer of “Hey Man Nice Shot” by Filter was solved by SonOfSpam. We’ve only got tonight, so let’s make the most of it!
