Our format is an eclectic "late night" themed radio show and we feature up and coming artists as well as those already doing well in their associated genre's.

An entanglement of rocks and roots solidly grounds this hour long cosmic sound odyssey. Mix the tears of a troubadour with the occasional electrocution, and left amongst the ashes are soulful expressions that resonate sounds from deep within the earth, and far beyond the clouds.
Every week selectors Coda & N-Deep
hijack the airwaves to bring you a
sonic soundscape of underground
House, Garage and Dubstep music.

Genre: Hip Hop
Born into the 90’s….hosted by Kev_One and his weekly sidekick...Listen every 2nd Sunday from 9pm-11pm(Central Standard Time)
This show is the closest thing to actually owning a time machine. Go back to the '90s, when the New Jack Swing and hip-hop on an R&B tip thrived. You'll find all the songs here, including influential picks from the decade's most popular stars. You must be warned, however, that this show might spark the desire to the do the running man. Weekly Industry updates from our Music Insider aka Mr Glove Droppa live from the Nations Capital….Battle of the Beats and of course the New Joint of the Week where listeners call in to recommend to either “Rush or Flush It” to the New Joint of the week…Don’t worry we also mix some of today’s music with the old because what is old is always new again….

Cheap Tuesdays
Tuesday, 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
Host(s): Dan Fuller
Genre: Loud/Punk Rock
I described this show as "Loud / Punk", but that's not always the case. I do enjoy a bit of the ole' loud and noisy guitar, but expect to hear a lot of different stuff on the show ranging from hip-hop, electronic, country, folk, jazz, blues, experimental metal, folk metal, noise rock, rock, grind, etc etc.
One feature of the show that will be consistent, however, is the "6 o'clock soundtrack", in which I'll be playing selections from the soundtrack of a particular movie (either because I like the movie, I like the composer, I like the music on this particular movie, or a combination of all of the above). Features composers will be (and have been) Peter Gabriel, Mike Patton, Masaru Satoh, Ennio Morricone, Danny Elfman, Eric Bachman, Air, etc etc.
Enjoy!

Come explore the observable universe with your humble yet committed host and test pilot, Lil’ Joey Springs. The Cockpit Radio Blare extends its radio wave appendages to the stars, reaching for the elusive perfect freak-out. Nine out of ten cosmologists agree it is impossible to observe the entire continuum of existence. But at least we have this radio show, The Cockpit Radio Blare.
The Connoisseur's Guide to Jigger's Musical Galaxy
Sunday, 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
E-mail:
Genre: World/Latin
If you're under the impression that Stevie Ray Vaughan was the only extraordinary blues performer in the 80s and 90s, the question is: where have you been? The answer: certainly not listening to The Connoisseur's Guide to Jigger's Musical Galaxy.
This is your chance to listen to the best the WORLD has to offer in blues and rock blues -especially to fans of electric guitar and Hammond organ. And I literally mean the world. If you tune in on any given Sunday you're as likely to hear blues maestros from Italy, Holland, the UK as you are from the U.S. Not only that, but you can tune in every week and NEVER hear the same song twice -that's a promise (with the odd accidental repeated song, but nobody's perfekt right?)
If the first hour's heavy blues haven't unhinged your synapse, then stick around for the second hour and hear the best the WORLD has to offer in psychedelia, hardrock and progrock from the 60s until now. If you're not familiar with "The Flower Travellin' Band's" 15 minute cover of "21st Century Schizoid Man", the "Pink Fairies" doing a 22- minute version of "Uncle Harry's Last Freakout"; or anything remotely interesting from "Aardvark" to "Zzebra" and anything cool in between -this is your chance to tap into the remaining unused 93% of your brain.
Life is too short for 3 minute pop songs, it's much better designed for mindbending 60 minute opuses that will literally make your brain melt. Another no repetition guarantee and I don't play Zeppelin 10 times a day! (In fact you'll be lucky to hear it once a year and it certainly won't be a known version of anything)
If there's something absolutely brilliant that you haven't heard in the last 30 or 40 years -odds are that I have it in my personal collection.
