    Finally station playlists curated by intelligent music connoisseurs & enthusiasts! Hallelujah, I've…read morefound music heaven in the DMV!! Head & shoulders above all rock (indie) & pop stations I've heard in over a decade with only the best new pop & rock + classic hits + deep cuts. I confirm and echo all the 4&5 star reviews. [Takoma Park's tiny WOWD LP @94.3 is the only comparable station, but if you're outside its 1 mile broadcast radius you'll have to stream from their website].

    I drive three hours to New Jersey and three hours back just about every other weekend. When I get…read moretired of listening to the mix CDs I made in college and my iPod doesn't contain anything of interest because I use it on the Metro so often, I grudgingly turn to the radio. I say "grudgingly" because the airwaves are full of crap. Every few months I press the FM button, and I want to bang my head against the steering wheel. Who wants to hear Rihanna and T-Pain every FIVE MINUTES? Really? You think Lady Gaga holds up to 30 listens in a day? Aughhhh. One magical evening, somewhere between Philly and Baltimore, my radio scan hit a 5-second patch of Neko Case. I quickly dialed back the station numbers, and there it was, 103.1 in all its unspoiled glory. I stayed glued to the frequency, sure this one song was a fluke. But then they played Talking Heads! And then Kaiser Chiefs! And then Bird & the Bee! A DJ came on the line and said they were taking requests. I punched the numbers in my phone. A man answered, and I babbled at him about how much I appreciated the lack of musical suckage his station was providing. He thanked me, and played my request ("Can You Tell" by Ra Ra Riot) 15 minutes later. I think I'm in love.
