I have a serious like for contemporary Hawaiian music, so much so that I actually have a whole lot more of it on my iPod then they actually play on this radio station.

Good balance of humor and organization, full of energy (like I think Red Bull must run through his veins), and brother does a mean "T-Rex" dance move! Hilarious! If you want a GREAT MC for your party who will get everyone excited and fired-up, is easy on the eyes (and I'm not gay) and overall great guy, hire Slick Vic. He'll rock the house, ya'all! Aww yeah, baby!

The…read moreradio in the rental was already pre-programmed for 93.9 on button #1 & throughout the ENTIRE visit, it remained on button #1. This station took me & my wife back to High School Days playing everything from Troop, Guy, Keith Sweat, The Deal, The System ("Don't distrub this groove" - SERIOUSLY???), etc... The list goes on but DAMN had some of these songs not resonated in my ears since I was a youngsta... Looks like they stream on iHeart Radio as well so I'll be listening to them in the Bay now as well!

Listening to the traffic reports reminds me of all of the roads I used to travel on when I was at home, and the sights along the roadways. Though not useful to me but still, I get a "Kick" listening to the reports. Though I love life in California, and consider it a great place to be in, I still love to have a part of home, to remember my days of growing-up in the islands. Now, with the great invention of the Internet, I am able to receive the music to remind me of my younger days. We are all fortunate to have the Internet available to make life for us so great. Gone are my days of having to go to the Hawaii stores in the area to get some cultural memories of my younger days! It is now available with a few clicks at home, or the office, computer !

Mahalo Billy and Mele for being with me for so long! Aloha

I was playing with the car radio dial and came across this new to me K-Pop radio station, KORL…read more107.5 FM in Honolulu which is progress for this mass media medium in Hawaii. It seems the radio are filled with adult contemporary, hip hop or Hawaiian/Jawaiian stations. So it is nice to have a station like this to break up the predictability. I don't know many Korean music artists outside of the popular ones (Bigbang, BoA, Girls Generation, Psy, Rain, etc.) and couldn't tell you the artist unless I heard it before and knew, but the playlist of songs seem to have no trouble jumping from poppier sounding fare to ballads that would fit as part of the soundtrack of a Korean drama. In addition to being on the FM dial, the station can be listened to online via their website. It is nice to hear different music on the radio from what I am used to and good to see that there is a decent station at the end of the dial neighboring the Golden Oldies channel.

Happy to have them in HI. They need to update their website however. It is lacking information…read moreabout DJs, upcoming events and cultural stuff. I say this because I want them to succeed! For a radio station to succeed there needs to be more radio ads and things of that nature. A savvy sales rep is needed for this type of success. Please succeed! Fighting!!! HyunniK is doing a great job put sorry, but G3 isn't doing anything for the morning show. Time for a switch but it may have happened since I haven't heard him the past 2 weeks.

Kumu- Apply named to teach many new listeners how to by…read moresound hear an era of music quickly. Yes, it is easier listening, almost all the words are easily distinctly heard. You won't hear Snow's Informer on it ever. You will likely hear a modern ballad like a Sam Smith but also a classic 80's like Soft Cell's Tainted Love classic. That is important for new listeners. Being able to hear and appreciate music from a few eras in a row and enjoy that music. Twitter blows up when Paul McCartney performs alongside a modern rapper. That they feel bad for an older male singer- but if they had listened to music on stations like KUMU they wouldn't make dumb comments immediately but appreciate music for listening sake. KUMU is easy contemporary listening, safe radio edit all the way. Is it for everyone- in general yes, that the music has such a wide variety and calm instrumentation which is heavy on vocals, it is good background music especially for an office. Easy listening/ non confrontational/ contemporary music, heavy on male and female vocals, great harmonies, easy melodies. What is unique about Kumu verses another contemporary station on the mainland is that you may hear great local female singers like Helm, Anuhea, and Na Leo, and the greatest Braddah Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. I still feel that Iz could be played in a loop about 3 or 4 songs like his Over the Rainbow at a wedding, funeral, or keiki first birthday for an angry crowd waiting impatiently and after just a few bars of him- the entire mood of the crowd would be calm and relaxed- not just in Hawaii but mainland too, most wouldn't recognize his voice by name but people would connect to the universal-ness of his peaceful voice. KUMU is a good station to go to for keeping the peace on longer car rides if there is a mixed group- always some song playing that more than one person will remember and really connect with emotionally. Every now and then - they have a pop up tent playing music live or semi live, for example I've seen then play at the Art Museum and broadcast during a family event. Sometimes it is neat to see them live.

So i called and the guy that answered 808-948-9464 oct 28 at 1 said that i missed my pick up date and it was the 26th and that i needed to reschedule 2 weeks out. So we ended the call and i KNEW that wasnt true. So i checked my email and it said the 28th. So i called the same number back in less then 30 seconds and the guy answers and hangs up. I called 33 times and each time i can hear background noise then a hang up. Then the last few times it would just ring and ring. So i decided to call a different number 8089471500 and the same guy answered. So i acknowledged that he hung up on me 33 times and that i double checked my email and the time and date i arrived was correct. And now he says sarcastically "yes your right. Im sorry, were just so busy and short on workers" i told him i took time off of work and that i had an appnt so you guys should honor that. He says sarcastically again "yes yes youre right, youre right. Im sorry but the nothing i can do" theres 100000 people laid off from work and not working and your telling me you guys are short on staff? Something is not right and someone is lying here. Overall i feel this prize is a scam because story is fishy.

If you're an EDM or dance music enthusiast, this station is for you. They have pretty good song rotations and it doesn't get old/repetitive like how other radio stations play the same hits over and over. This used to play over the radio airwaves in Hawaii but can now only can be streamed live online. Ever since they stopped on the radio, it wasn't as convenient to listen in anymore. This station is non-profit and depends on listener donations/sponsorship. By subscribing/donating (joining the My959 VIP Club Rewards), you can get free tickets to events! The website and radio streaming page will show the track history so you can see what's played. This station has such variety ranging from trance, club, dance, etc. It's a great way to get exposure on a wide range, by listening to other subgenres and getting out of your pandora/slacker comfort zone! They also stream some of the shows by Tiesto, Hardwell, etc. that you can also find on itunes podcasts!

I miss the good ole days when we had some truly independent radio stations out here before being bought out by an evil empire. I kid you not when I heard the annoying song by Taylor Swift "Blank Space" a few years ago playing in one radio station that I quickly changed it to another station only to hear the same song on that station and changed it a third station playing the same song. What. The. Faka?! Also is it me that I heard her say "Starbucks Lovers" instead of the lyrics of list of ex-lovers? And speaking of lyrics...Ariana Grande's "Thank U, Next" to me sounds like "Steaks and Eggs!" or "Bacon Eggs" depending on your mood. Having just returned from Oahu for a quick vacation, there are several Reggae stations that we listened to and 93.1 was on the top of our list. Love the vibe and selections they play. My only knock is they play limited songs and also repeat them, but I don't mind because it's music I like listening to. I was feeling "homesick" and needed some Reggae vibes while drivin' and asked Wifey if we could stream their station on line. Sure enough, I plugged in my iPhone and suddenly we were back in Oahu again feelin' the island vibes as I drifted on the right lane and even started to drive slower. Yup, had that effect on me right away and I was calm, relaxed and mellow as we drove home listening to island soul music. Note: Reno and Carson City has better radio stations than the Bay Area. That's a fact, Jack!

The class taught basic knowledge of Pre Production, Production and Post Production. Instructors Wes and Brandee were awesome!! They were methodical and super patient with time to answer lots of questions. Amongst the numerous topics , the class covered everything from Story Boarding, Shot List, Using the Camera to Editing. Because I attended from home on Zoom, they let me take a JVC HD camera home to practice with the class. FYI you will need an SD card. You get a pdf textbook that helps with more in depth details on the information of the course. Once you successfully complete the course, they will email you a certificate which allows you to freely use their cameras and lights. The caveat is your project cannot be commercial and has to be aired on Olelo. Another super cool benefit of completing the course is you can sign up for 1 on 1 tutoring. I will definitely take them up on that.

I've watched programming over the years--Kamaka Pili's Aloha Authentic before he went mainstream on KHON2- the public meetings- the talk shows- the crafting show- the fishing- etc. I met a woman recently who said it gave her a safebridge to learn about our local culture and history because she had no clue coming from the east coast. She said watching 'olelo helped her understand and get along with her co workers. I'm writing about my personal experience now: my husband and I took the basic media production certification course so I could produce a show I've been wanting to tell this story but didn't know who or how. My mentor at Patsy Mink Center said--why not do it myself and use 'Olelo? Wes and Brandee were excellent trainers and our classmates were great. It is a LOT to process but lots of fun to learn something new. The staff are all great and helpful. Providing the community a voice is very valuable.
