Spend an hour with them during the week and you'll find that they craft a lively, entertaining and often personal Days Of Our Burque Lives program each and every day. It's an impressive feat, something that most shows really fail to deliver because hey, it's hard. But the team is really stellar. Concerning the music, this station really needs to connect with a huge demographic, so you're getting a mix of mostly feel-good pop and rock, with a lil' sompin' sompin' thrown in to throw you off every now and then. I'm probably interested in about a quarter of it, but that figures. I'm a music snob and I'm not a big fan of mainstream stuff, so winning me over is really futile. For you 80's enthusiasts, they mix tape a pretty decent selection at the noon hour. Go check 'em out, you might find your new breakfast buddies.

"We still remember The Beach" is one of many sound-byte blurbs you'll hear between songs and the song selection definitely nails the kind of feel-good, station wagon bumpin' stuff that ABQ connected to in the 80's and 90's. Expect stuff like Bel Biv Devoe, slow heavy jams from Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, and deeper hip hop that you haven't listened to for... well, 30 years. Overall, a great station to bring you back to the days when Dance Dance Dance really was a Teen Thing.

One year ago, almost to the day, I was riding the "shuttle service" (a school bus) from a parking…read morelot to the Muertos y Marigolds parade, and I noted the bus driver was rocking "Jeremy" from Pearl Jam. Since I virtually never venture around the FM dial (oh, what a sad, sad audio scene we suffer in ABQ), I was more than a little curious about the station and I started listening. I immediately noted the following, which remain true one year later: 1) The song selection is determined by a corporate behemoth called American Public Media, they have no DJs, the music is simply pumped onto our airwaves via a local hub. On the massive negative side, it means listeners have absolutely no way to connect with and influence the content, and forget about requests. The ugly reality of modern radio. 2) On the plus side, it means absolutely no talk and very few commercials, compared to most stations. Virtually every time I tune in I'm getting music or a lame-o promo that says something like "Area 102.9, it's like if Yoda used the Force to Rock", whatever the hell that's supposed to mean. 3) Whoever chooses this music has awful taste in "modern" rock, they play the same crap that you'll find on other stations, alt-folk and electro-anthem-y stuff that drives me fucking insane (which I must suffer or face the wrath of my 16 year-old). They also have a weird fascination with the The Cure, The Police, the Red Hot Chili Peppers (a lame selection, where Kiedis raps about stupid shit), R.E.M., U2 and a smattering of 1980's Brit Pop. A third of the time, listenable. I'd say, overall, a two-to-three star station. And, unfortunately, one of the best in town.

I'm not a big fan of classic rock, if only because as a child it was A) endlessly poured into my…read moreeardrums, B) I grew up in a city with a great local music scene, and C) now that Jane's Addiction and the Red Hot Chili Peppers have made the list of "classic rockers", I'm officially Old and grumpy. That said, I've listened to KIOT plenty, especially at my favorite laundromat when I was in grad school. Unlike the sensationalized, over-the-top stations I grew up with (and 94 Rock here), KIOT's format is a great mix of obvious classics and plenty of deeper, longer tracks. You'll find some of the lesser-played Hendrix and Stones on this station, with fewer commercial breaks and DJs that generally keep it cool. Speaking of DJs, Erika Viking is the star of the morning show, and the day for that matter. She mixes up smart, hilarious content with personal commentary that seriously connects her with the audience, a rare trait for a host, and her guests are usually pretty entertaining, to boot. For a commercial station in ABQ, this is a solid choice.
