Default Wanted: music about the internet

All, I am developing a digital radio program for my local community radio station WMNF themed around "The Internet". It will be called PLAY ALL THE THINGS and feature songs of many different genres but will especially include electronic music, nerdcore, video game soundtracks, popular meme songs, and more.

I currently have playlists for three 2-hour shows mapped out and music and ideas for months of weekly shows, but am definitely looking for more.

Does anyone know if a program like this exists that I could listen to for reference? Or if not, any suggestion of songs/ideas that you would like to hear on a program like this??

Thanks.

-Nate

What do you mean by it being themed around “The Internet?”

Well, it is a loose theme.

But it can be any of these:

- songs literally about the the web, online culture, social media, clockchain, streaming media, etc
- songs that were relevant digital milestones
- music by people who are known for being discovered primarily online
- music made exclusively by online collaboration sites
- music that about video games (which in their early days didn't have anything to do with the internet, but now surely do)
- any of the online remix trends

I am definitely open to other ideas, but all of this music exists and appeals to me, and I am betting that it would appeal to others as well.

Should I post a playlist with examples?

I guess I should clarify that this is basically modern "nerd culture" music minus fantasy and DnD music.

I do love me some nerd core. Going to a show later this year. Super pumped.

That is exactly the type of stuff I am talking about.
