The Slow Burn Radio — Dereck & David Dempster
On air tonight

Same coast.
Different vibes.

The Slow Burn is a late-night radio experience hosted by brothers Dereck & David Dempster — curated songs from your own Spotify or Apple Music, woven between commentary, stories, and the kind of silence that says something.

The format

A host. A playlist. And the space between.

Every episode is a timeline: voice fades into song, the music ducks, the host returns when the moment is right. We never host the music ourselves — it streams through your Spotify Premium or Apple Music account, exactly the way the artists intended.

  • Hosted segments — recorded commentary between every song.
  • Synchronized playback — Spotify & Apple Music ducked under the host, automatically.
  • Cinematic transitions — intros, ambient beds, room tone.

Dereck & David Dempster

Two brothers. A shared record collection. A belief that the right song at the right hour can change the shape of an evening. The Slow Burn is what they built when the radio stopped making sense.
