This morning, 92Q DJ and First Lady of Baltimore Club K-Swift passed away, leaving countless fans and lovers of club music in shock.

Truly a figurehead in the club music scene, K-Swift was also a pioneer in general for the female DJ, and a very successful one, at that.

Tomorrow night on Stands for Decibels I will be doing a tribute to the Club Queen, playing my favorite Bmore Club (and offshoot) tracks and taking any callers who wish to give their condolences.

Dude do you remember the first time you heard that frogs record it’s
only right and natural? That was good times. Or when you bought the
3rd and 4th cro-mags lp, and it was the worst ever? So that’s kinda
what this will be like. DNA in the DNA has been on for pretty much a
year. To party it up we’re gonna have some of the harshest outsider
punk noise art etc you can think of. If we can’t get that then we can
get bands that still think ESG is the best band of all time. Come one
come all bring your cheers dvd box sets and let loose its time to do
it to it.

Both days start at 6PM sharp

WMUC’s Summer 2008 Schedule is now in effect. Many of your spring favorites have returned for another round… click over to the schedule and check it out!

Want to get on the radio this summer? Better yet, want to be able to play what you want on the radio? Now’s your chance – DC’s only free-form FM college radio station has some airtime to fill, and we’re looking for new talent. If you’re going to be around College Park and want to try out, come to the WMUC Summer Open House on Thursday, June 5th, at 7:00 – 10:00 pm at the station.

Come out and see what we’re all about. Bring us your show idea – if you had two hours of weekly airtime to do whatever you want (okay, there are a few rules), what would you do? If you’d play music, bring a playlist. If you’d talk, bring a list of topics or ideas. Only the best ideas win.

Keep in mind – the timeslots available are the ones currently listed as “Off the Air” on the schedule.
