Non-profit radio stations are amazing artist incubators, KEXP is one of the greatest but some other cool ones I've found

WXPN

KUTX

The Current

WAYO

Radio K

WXPR

The Bridge

88Nine

Great suggestion. I've been moving away from Spotify style services and using Internet radio streams more. This station is exactly the kind of stuff I've been looking for.

Wet Leg's set was one of my favorites last year!

Kexp is a huge deal!

They are a local radio station in the Seattle / Tacoma area and have given air time to some incredible small bands at the time that helped propel them to stardom; Nirvana being their biggest success story. You can listen to them on Internet radio easily, they are always throwing on massively different genres and it can help get you exposed to some new stuff!

Every time I see Cheryl waters on KEXP my soul heals a little bit

I'm drinking a black sesame latte in their Gathering Space right now!

Npr tinydesk anyone??

Radio > song dna streaming

Streaming is essentially a musical echo chamber that will trap and never expand the true horizons for the vast majority of its listeners

They were hugely affected by the disbandment of CPB, so please consider donating. It's worth the money.

That being said, Eva Walker in the morning and Troy Nelson in the afternoon make my commute so much better. I love KEXP.

Throwing my hat in the pile as well, their live shows are on par with tiny desk concerts and can be amazing.

Definitely amazing channel, a couple great sets:

• M83
• Chvrches

A fantastic channel!

I like when they got Elephant Gym to come out.

Puuluup is great, learned about them during Eurovision a couple of years ago. Thanks for the recommendation of KEXP

meh, americ*n
