Local Shows
The Bobalouie Show - (Mondays 9-11:30am) Free form radio at it's purest.
The Bottom Line Show
Code Talker
In the Red
(9:30 p.m.-midnight, alternate Wednesdays)
Inspiration for the name came from watching the needles go into the red during dynamic parts of songs. I like it loud, always have. The show name fits well with what we do in the later portion of the show, which is lots of heavy rock and some dark electronic stuff. Bands like Boris, the Knife, Melvins, and Flying Lotus will frequently populate our late-night world.
The first portion of the program tries to be more user-friendly, easing folks into the later evening with anything from the Gourds or Drive-By-Truckers, to Grizzly Bear or New Pornagraphers. Tunes from Wilco, Byrne or Bowie, and the occasional hip-hop or country song are thrown in to keep it fair. Tune in to be turned on to something new. Call me at the studio and let me know what you thin
Jamaican Me Crazy (fill-in DJ) It might make you crazy trying to figure out what I'll play next ! Past shows have included Best/ Worst of the 70's, 80's, or 90's, Country Hits, Songs you love to hate, or the Name Game. Genres you will hear include Alternative, Classic Rock, Country, Island Music (reggae/ soca/ calypso), Show Tunes, Movie Music, Big Band, Pop Rock, and Kids Songs (did I forget anything ?). Tune in, turn it up ! Don't turn it off ! Jerry Bonafiglio's Rockin' Remnants (7 - 9 PM Every Other Friday) Close your eyes, don your bobby socks, let your mind drift back to the days of greasers & 57 Chevys, and bebop to the sounds of Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Buddy Holly and those Moldy Oldies from the 50's & 60's. Lef Deppard (6 - 9 AM Every other Tuesday) Sometimes brilliant, often stupifying, this show is a mix of rock, country, and pop usually from the 70's and 80's and with a topping of cheese. Lounge 8800 (6 - 9 AM Every other Friday) Lounge 8800 is a KOTO all-music radio show dedicated to airing novelty songs, champagne music, and ballads from the 40s, 50s, and 60s. It features all the music that was thriving with the older generations during the early stages of rock n' roll, and still remains the antithesis to rock n' roll. You'll hear Henry Mancini, Stan Kenton, Rosemary Clooney, Andy Williams, Jack Jones, Jo Stafford, Percy Faith & His Orcestra, and even some Liberace. The Luci Show (10 AM - Noon Every other Friday) As a KOTO DJ for over twenty years my motto is "It's gotta have a beat and you gotta be able to dance to it." There is a lot of disco on my show because I learned to like dance music while roller skating in Central Park NY, and in the roller discos of the NY 80's scene. If you don't hear something from SOS Band, Madonna, Carl Carlton, Kim Carnes, Kylie Minogue, David Bowie, Steve Winwood, Commodores, Evelyn "Champagne" King, or Atlanta Rhythm Section, then you are not listening to "The Luci Show". As two time winner of KOTO's Lip Sync Contest, I am living proof that us volunteer DJs will do anything for the station up to and including taking it all off for a good cause. Mr. Wobber's Neighborhood (Fill In DJ) If I start playing the same old stuff...... shoot me. My Generation (1 - 3 PM Every other Thursday) "My Generation" is a show unlike what you hear on all those "Classic Rock" stations owned by Clear Channel. There is no playlist, and you'll hear songs you haven't heard in years from the 50's through the 80's. Rock, folk, and blues - if you like Country Joe & The Fish, you'll probably be glad you tuned in. Obscene Steven Clean (6 - 9 AM Every other Tuesday) Plays bluegrass and acoustic music, mixed in with comedy, NPR news and the weather. PB & J (1 - 3 PM Every other Monday) PB & J stands for Pete's Blues and Jazz with host Peter Lundeen. Latin, funk, soul, and groove are also favorites but blues and jazz, both new and old, are the standard fare. Artists you might hear include Johnny Lang, Galactic, Miles Davis, James Brown, or St. Germain. Each show depends on my mood and I usually let it flow. I do not have a prearranged playlist. The reason I started this show in the fall of 2001 was twofold: one to increase people's awareness of what Jazz is and the incredible range of music included under that label and two, to keep the Blues Alive since blues is rarely played on any radio station in any major city, and it should be ! Peaks and Waves (8 - 10 PM Every other Sunday) My freeform approach to radio touches on many musical styles and elements circling from Jazz to Jam Bands, from Reggae to Rock, Bluegrass to Worldbeat, and Dub to Acid Jazz. I like the segue part, do little talking, and take reasonable requests. You'll have a motherlode of fun tunin' into my alpinglow show - Peaks and Waves on K O T O. Piccadilly Rock (3 - 5 PM Every other Monday) Plays different genres of music - mostly rock n' roll, hip hop, and dancehall. Also new and popular music from the charts, remixes and soundtracks. A very upbeat show with little talking. Fresh, lively and has a good groove. Radio Addiction (6 - 9 PM Every other Saturday) There’s nothing like three hours of music therapy with Radio Addiction. (Just about) anything goes… if you want, and if I can find it – you just have to call me at the station when I’m on the air (970.728.4333). Believing that music has the power to heal and consciously aware of what messages are put out to the universe, especially with so much wattage behind it (and now the infinite reach of the internet), when left to my own devices, I will spend a great deal of time playing reggae, rap, hip-hop, the latest chart toppers, soon-to-be hits, and more, with an emphasis on hip-swinging and love-making. Music designed to get you up and moving that body… so go ahead, feel free to dance and take the therapy to an even higher level (‘cause I am). Once in a while, I will go outside of my comfort zone and do crazy things like host a song writing challenge and dedicate an entire show to the results of said contest, amongst other things. For the very curious, visit my MySpace page, completely dedicated to my radio show. Real Town Radio (Alternate Mondays, 3-5 p.m.)
Real Town Radio is an eclectic mix of rock, funk, classics and anything that gets you grooving on a Sunday afternoon. I hope everyone is rocking along while working around the house, working at their job, skiing, or sitting on their deck having drinks with their buddies. I keep the talking to a minimum and just spin some good tunes. Everything from the boss to the flaming lips, Dylan, fugees, Air, Stones, Bjork, Roxy Music, Beck and always end with a Willie Nelson tune. A couple times a year we do a theme show. The classics are “love and hate” around Valentines Day- One love song followed by a hate song and so on. “Cool Covers” Songs covered by artists where the song almost sounds as good if not better by the cover artist. The last annual theme show is “Reel Film Radio” on Sunday of Film Fest (If lucky) where I play the best songs from movies new and old. Thanks for listening
SOLO Don West (Fill-in DJ) SOLO focuses on songs that have an extended section in which there is no singing and one instrument performs the dominant piece. Usually the instrument is an electric or acoustic guitar. For those who appreciate the special beauty, depth and vibrancy of guitar playing, the guitar solo is the best part of the song. It is the part that can make your heart race or it can put you into a hypnotic dream state. Artists like Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young, David Gilmour and many others come to mind. In the genre of Rock, the guitar dominates; but solos are not solely limited to guitars. The harmonica is a solo instrument in the hands of Bob Dylan. Jerry Lee Lewis used the piano as a solo instrument in "Great Balls of Fire". SOLO will delve into this sub-genre of Rock that focuses on the magnificence of a particular instrument and allows it to sing alone. Sunday Evening Classical (6 - 8 PM Every Sunday) Hi ! My show is Sunday Evening Classical. My radio name is Klaus Klippenheimer. My real name is Rob Roth. I play classical music with an emphasis on ancient and sacred music which includes vocal and choral. Urban Sweets (3 - 5 PM Every other Friday) Music to get the weekend started. I like to play a fun upbeat show featuring tunes with a reggae beat as the driving force but heading into different directions. A bit of world beat, some reggae, ska, electronica and even rock n' roll with an irie drum and bass line. Making sure to hit the "new tunes" drawer each show helps keep the music fresh and interesting. I sometimes showcase bands that have played in town, or are going to. Following the 4 PM reading of the Community Calendar I host a 15 minute slot called Access. It's a show available to the public each weekday used to air comments, announcements, and interviews. Musicians have been known to show up and give us a taste of their talents over the air. A typical Urban Sweets show will have music in many different languages, and always a song or more in Spanish. And I am happy to take your requests.
World Music with Guy (9-midnight every other Friday) Listening to beats from around the globe. You'll enjoy funky beats from Asia, mysterious vocals hailing from Iran, incredible sounds from Brazilian percussian, and many more surprises. This is typically an upbeat show where remixes and other Putumayo musical compilations are showcased.
