A pennant-winning battery of songland. Ongoing feature: Single File, a half-hour of randomly selected small records with big holes.

The Citizen Kane of adult entertainment.

Plenty of Tull. Some other bands too if they rock.

Intimate electronics, bad poetry, tender murk, and tired humans making the best of it. Features live sound collaging, too.

Conversations with creators and thinkers who are charting the way forward in a tech-saturated society. Tech, community, video games, and whatever else is next.

An hour of prog and prog-adjacent music.

Music with vocals weird & wonderful -- beatboxing, yodels, auction chants, Tuvan throatsinging, & eerie polyphonies.

The run-around drill sergeant of love meets the freeform radio nurse in an international popularity crisis. Twang, dub, noise, rockers, aliens, drum machines, foreigners, imported goods, songs, rumbles, hollers, blips and squiggles, along with an occasional musical number.

Memories of music. I'll take you back in time into the present sounds of today and yesteryear.

Beats mismatched. New mystic moods. The International Style. Pressed and dressed. Queasy listening. New ways to fail. More is more. Backroom room tones.

Astonishing audio adventures. Mundane audio tasks.

An exploration into the musical output of religious cults, new religious movements, and individuals of a spiritually inspired and divine nature.

A collection of scenes about moving, confusion and the shame of existing. Maximalist mediatations, places where people live, interpretations of chaos. This show is in danger of having a plot but probably doesn't.

Grand pianos in the surf, singing frogs, hyphenated psych, outtakes, live collaging, twangy drone, old folk, and ephemeral pop.

Radio Futura aims to put to rest the misconception of “latin music” as the one that exclusively happens to be coming from Latin America and in Spanish … Hopefully we get to bring you a much needed accurate, wider, and richer painting of the single biggest issue that still today brings ALL Latin cultures together: their music !

the sound of the convergences of elation & grief, fantasy & reality; a show for the changelings, the shining, the misfits, the enchanted, the divergent, the despisers of small-talk, and the absolutely sublime.

Freeform radio for the chronically impatient. Avant-garde pop, poppy avant-garde, teutonic thump thump, loud guitars and guttural screaming. Playlists and photos posted in real time on the web so you can play along or comment at home or work.

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Genre-surfing tokenism.

The program formerly known as Dinner at Andy's, The Fuzzy Glove Hour, Whores, and The Happiness Hut. Ken and Andy, also known as The Enema Boys, further lower WFMU's already abysmal standards on a weekly basis. Stunt radio which subjects the radio audience to concepts and topics which mature adults should not have to endure. Find the fatal flaw.

A mixture of pop and avant-garde side by side, sometimes on top of one another.

Twangs of all stripes and stuff that ends in -billy.

Tangents, parenthetical asides, and digressions.

It's Secret Canine Agents! Coming from the world of College Radio, this program puts its primary focus on putting hidden and well-known Spanish gems to the front! Come and listen to the beautiful music of Latin America! Features genres such as Shoegaze, Hardcore, New-Wave, House, Pop, and many more goodies. Secret Canine Agents is here to deliver tunes to enjoy, wallow, or fight someone in Spanish! These are tunes for your listening pleasure :)."

Order but no rules. Madness but crafted. Curated chaos is the spot for genre blending, jumping, and changing it up. Covering all areas from fresh indie pop to moody shoegaze tracks and back again to classic country. For all those that find borders and limits suffocating.

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Riff rock for riff raff, pop fizzle for the frazzled, chord changes of life for the menopausal teenagers, a safari in the jingle-jangle jungle.

" I can't tell when you're telling me the truth."
- I'm not.
"How do I know anything you've told me is..."
- You don't.

Southern inspirational dada.

A show that seeks to explore and celebrate the varied textures in which black and brown artists have expressed their experience of the world spirit over time.

Scratchy vanity 45s, pilfered field recordings, muddy off-the-radio sounds, homemade congregational tapes and vintage commercial gospel throw-downs; a little preachin', a little salvation, a little audio tomfoolery.

It's time to fall out the window with me.

All roads lead to New Jersey in six degrees or less.

A show that kinda feels like Casey Kasem cookin’ up crockpot shortwave pirate radio, but with a lot more curbside cassette mixtapes, lost radio serials, French Canadian comedy… and zings, pings, and static. Or, well, maybe it doesn’t feel anything like that at all.

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

Mona brings you synthpop, disco, darkwave, electronic, new romantic, queer anthems, dance classics, post punk, soul, goth, shoegaze, industrial, britpop, retro r&b, breaks, and more...

This isn't the kind of show you take home to your family. Get your polka shoes on and get ready to rumble.

Hip-hop and rap, that's where my heart's at. But I'll play anything so long as it ain't crap!

One hour; 23 or 24 soul 45s.

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

A yurt for the transgenred.

Ambient, transient, poppy, sloppy, danceable, romanceable, and Italians rapping in English with laser noises. Don't be sad because here comes the sun.

Songs and sounds to delight a wide variety of animals. Play this show for your cat, dog, turtle, parrot, fish or any animal you happen to know.

Music for kids like you!

A showcase for the widest-possible definition of pop music, plus interviews with the world's finest music makers.

The unsung heroes of rock 'n' roll, presented at 45 RPM: 50s/60s bop, slop, & schlock.

This isn't a radio show, it's a party. And everyone's invited!

Six-pack abs for the seedy underbelly with Gotham Roller Derby's own Suzy Hotrod. Rock and roll, punk, and things with a good beat that make you dance, sweat, and/or punch something.

An underground journey through the history of psychedelic rock, modern music, shimmering noise, free jazz, punk, funk, children's records played at the wrong speed, tape cut-up, static, the composition of decomposition, and subversive spoken word.

Your companion in solitude.
