radioNtenna.org is a great mix of indie, rock, blues,
folk, Americana and oldies. It is about music as art, rather than just
music; a mixture of old and new friends. It could be rooted in
Progressive Radio of the 60's and 70's, but it covers music from the
50's to the latest new groups, with everything in-between.It's the "Progressive Alternative".
We call it "way deep, way wide", because radioNtenna
takes pride in the once-upon-a-time truth that radio was where you
learned all that you could about contemporary music. And who's to say
what is contemporary, and what is not? Just listen. You'll figure it
out.
radioNtenna.org began as a beta 24/7 radio stream
during Christmas 2005. As of March 2006 we were fully programmed,
running on digital radio and have not looked back since. More new
specialty programs are added regularly, by people who believe that
music is the ultimate experience in life.
This spot on your Internet and Digital Radio dial is
dedicated to all those who rode that wonderful wave of music all the
way to early FM successes in a number of West and East Coast markets.
My lifelong friend, Bill Rogers, is our big voice
(billrogersproductions.com). The "New Day" announcement is dedicated to
the original staff of K-94 (one letter, two numbers!) who beat the
odds. Other key voices are Michelle and Gabe (you guys Rock!) and Paul
"the new" Shugrue, who keeps this place so far ahead it is beyond
current.
If radioNtenna takes you back, or takes you ahead, or
just takes you aside, then I'm glad for it. If it needs more or less of
anything, drop me a note, I'll pay attention.
Enjoy!
