I saw mention of this elsewhere and was able to pick it up and listen to it for a while.  I didn't make any notes about what music was on though.  I did find that I had to do some fine-tuning in small steps to improve the sound.

Started listening to RMI after Ballsmacker shut down at 0245 UTC
RMI had usual potent signal (S9+20 55545) and 10 kHz of audio, but at 0255 signal made a dramatic fade to near zero. When signal came back it was much weaker than before and at 0321 UTC signal is averaging S5-S6 with a 34433. Either the band went long or a possible flare with a K Index of 6 that was expected, just hit. The upper half of the audio above 5 kHz is getting lost in the noise.

I noticed the band went long as our signal is S7 in parts Europe. I also noticed the fast change in the band which could be the flare also. We will stay on for a while.

Thank you again for tuning into MRI.

Just heard the first few bars of 'Low Rider' - 6870 usb @ 0500 utc.
Switched to magnetic loop, Rx isn't as good as the simple wire.
