A spooktacularly frighting mix of awesomeness awaits—yep, we said it—with as many puns as fresh tracks. Tune in for brand new Of Montreal and Mumford & Sons. Plus check out info on the traveling Fun Festival, including this weekend’s third edition: Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin, TX featuring the Head and the Heart. And for good measure, a set with a beat also awaits you featuring Metermaids and Lord T. That’s your Halloween mix with DJRePete on BTR!
