Retired Features
Certain features that were present in the earliest episodes are no longer a part of new episodes.
Stuck in the Box
Stuck in the Box was a random classic track that would be featured once in a while.
Unsung Hero
Unsung Hero was a featured unsigned or demo production. This feature became unnecessary as a great deal of tracks that are now played on TATW are demo or unsigned productions. In early 2004 demos and unsigned productions and remixes were harder to come by.
