Black Friday is a show like no other. Featuring grunge kid Tone Porno, the show airs on 4ZzZ FM on 102.1 within the Greater Brisbane area from 9 am til 1 pm on Friday mornings and features a genuine blend of styles and taste.
Mixing dirty guitars with urban flavour and everything in between, we will make you laugh, cry and rebel against the norm whilst hitting serious community topics and roping in people of interest from all across the music industry and general community. With a focus on home grown music the grunge kid aims to deliver. We are always happy to spin new local tunes, so send us your gear and we'll hammer it home.

ABOUT THE STATION
4ZzZ became the first FM community broadcaster in Australia when it started transmitting on the 8th of December 1975 from the University of Queensland as 4ZZ. Forcibly evicted from UQ in December 1988, 4ZzZ broadcast from Coronation Drive in Toowong for several years. As 4ZzZ outgrew the premises there, the stations devoted volunteers, subscribers and supporters raised $30,000 in 1992 for a deposit to purchase the premises in Fortitude Valley, where we broadcast from today. Throughout its history, 4ZzZ has been renowned for supporting local music and artists, putting on great events, presenting news and opinions not found in mainstream media and providing support to our local community.
Today, 4ZzZ is Brisbane's (Australia) best independent radio station, blasting fresh local and underground music and news through your radio from our premises in Fortitude Valley to the outskirts of Brisbane.
We represent all styles of sound, most of which are ignored by mainstream media outlets. You can tune into 102.1 fm to hear all sorts of music including indie, punk, rock, noise, electronica, ska, rockabilly, dark wave, reggae, hip hop and drum & bass, and local news sourced and presented by our award winning newsroom.
The 4ZzZ library is a goldmine of awesome music, each week around 60 new releases come into the 4ZzZ library - 60 % of these are local and Australian releases.
Unlike most other radio stations, our announcers don't adhere to playlists - this means they play what they want to, when they want to. All that is implemented is a quota system, so we continue to play a significant amount of female, Australian, Brisbane and new music. We also have heaps of great giveaways every day for our subscribers. Check out the program guide to see what shows we have to offer.

4ZzZ's Motto is AGITATE, EDUCATE, ORGANISE
We don't shy away from challenging the status quo. We aim to do this by providing access for the community to radio, supporting local bands, artists and events, providing training for our volunteers, and through dissemination of alternative news and current affairs.
