Tricky joins Lauren around the release of his new album, Different When It's Silent and also shares his musical DNA.

Lauren brings a great selection of tunes to kick-start your weekend
We also take a moment to reflect something beautiful happening with our 6 Music listeners in the Beauty Spot, and look forward to the day ahead in A View From The Afternoon.

Plus, Lauren takes you on a trip to the Desert Island Disco - your opportunity to get the nation moving on a Friday morning, with dance-floor fillers of any genre.
