KEXP

Hands down, hands down, the very best radio station out there. KEXP was one of the redeeming qualities of living in Seattle. KEXP has good taste in music, period. Three bad songs in a row on KEXP? No such thing. Missed the title of a song or band? No problem, all of the playlists are archived so that you don't miss a thing. They even have a song of the day feature in case you can't tune in that day but need to have a booster shot of good tunes. Fortunately, even though I no longer live in Seattle, I can still listen to KEXP online.

KEXP used to have an innovative approach to broadcasting their wonderful music collection. Over the past 6 months, it's turned into a self serving pity party.,"you are not alone" is sounding like a broken record (excuse the pun). This theme is now pervasive and depressing to listen to. DJ's are sharing WAY too much personal information… just this morning we heard about the DJ discovering he was HIV positive in 2022 … who cares? Stick to playing good music, stay away from the touchy freely stuff and you'll keep your audience. For now, I'm going elsewhere.
