  • A Sordid Hour

    A week­ly broad­cast ded­i­cat­ed to Rock ​’n’ Roll, spe­cial­iz­ing in noise rock, garage, punk, sleaze, stoner/​sludge & hard rock. A Sor­did Hour gives refuge to the aspir­ing, the unfa­mil­iar, under-rat­ed and unsung bas­tions of rock and roll.

    Plus, we end every show with the Near­ly Sci­en­tif­ic Six Pack — the six hottest songs from Peg City.

  • Expansive Prairie Skies

    Expan­sive Prairie Skies draws inspi­ra­tion from the wide open vis­tas that sur­round Win­nipeg.
    It’s the oppo­site of feel­ing hemmed in.
    It’s the sound­track to a late night dri­ve beneath a boun­ty of con­stel­la­tions.
    Con­tem­po­rary clas­si­cal and actu­al clas­si­cal.
    Avant-garde and musique con­crete.
    Noise and ambi­ent music.
    Jazz and more jazz.
    The host pro­vides the son­ic stratos­phere,
    the music does the talk­ing, you do the dreaming.

  • Free Range Radio

    Back in a fami­lar spot, your ol’ pal Skip­py cov­ers the musi­cal land­scape! Tune in each week for inter­views, spe­cial fea­tures and great music!

  • HLLLYH! WPG!

    Hll­lYh! Winnipeg!

    Dance, mix, fusion, rock, pop, noise, beats, treats, and hang­outs, doing-your-home­work, mon­day, 630pm, radio slot.

    So sit back,

    dance around,

    draw some stuff,

    read this book,

    crush on that girl or boy,

    go for a walk, decide to talk, 

    your dri­ving around, smok­ing those sticks,

    give some time to rethink those bricks

    and have a fun thought in the mid­dle the continent.


    Cheers!

  • hurlements sur la toundra

    Chaque semaine, à par­tir de la toundra dans un bunker datant de la Guerre froide, l’animateur Nafre pro­pose des thé­ma­tiques exposant ce sous-genre du métal extrême. Musiques païennes, dénon­ci­a­tions mis­an­thropiques, muta­tions esthé­tiques et prim­i­tivisme total ser­vent de points de repère dans cette quête mal­saine. Vous y enten­drez les révéla­tions les plus ter­ri­bles, qui bru­tale­ment se heur­tent au prob­lème de l’ex­is­tence et à la froide vérité de la nature. Une explo­ration radio­phonique que pour les plus enhardis…
