CJAI-FM

I am here for Networking

About Me

Public Radio like you've never heard it before is our slogan. If YOU are in a Canadian Band, SEND US YOUR STUFF. It WILL play here. No crazy music directors, no payola (we have no money anyway). We are the smallest legal FM broadcast station in Canada- but we are committed to Canadian Content!You can hear our transmitter southwest of Kingston, Ontario on 93.7FM, or you check out our live streaming audio at http://amherstisland.on.ca/air Want to perform live in our studio? KEWL! If U can get here, we will find a time slot that fits! We love MP3's and put them in rotation almost immediately.Indie rock, Folk, Blues, Jazz, Chill- we have a slot for it all... And, unlike the big commerical stations, its not the slot in the trash can either!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Folks who are extremely talented but unsung Canadian musicians- who need some airtime. The government has given us this license to promote Candian talent- We are a 100% Volunteer operated Community Station! HELP US DO OUR JOB BY GETTING US YOUR STUFF!!!!CJAI Is a legally registered Not-For-Profit in Ontario (kind of like most musicians--- except for the registered part). Help us help you!Sure, we'll play non-Canadians too- But our playlist right now is 68% Canadian, including 100% Canadian 6am to 6pm Sat and Sun. Maybe, Like Neko Case, U can try for adopted citizenship up here, eh?We receive NO MUSIC from MAJOR LABELS whatsoever. Too bad for them. We are heard via radio on the Island and across an area of about 10,000 people on the Mainland.

Music:

Mail your music to: CJAI-FM 5830 Front Road Stella, Ontario K0H2S0 CANADA ...or send us your info so we can go DL it somewhere- we love MP3's
