No-brainer pick-of-the-week.  NY’ers LVL UP with west-coasters Babysitter and new-born project of CKUT’s own music director JS with Harsh Reality.  If you feel more like “swinging” your “hips”, CKUT Programmers The Goods will burn up the dancefloor at Sala.

Wednesday, July 31 –  The Moment, Paper Castles, DJ Miracle Fortress, Guests @ Studio Migration

This Montreal supergroup played live on the Montreal Sessions last week and really caught our ear.  Long grooves, polyrhythms, and harmonies galore.

July 23rd, 2013: CKUT TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE CHARTS

Hello friends,

Everyone at CKUT had our minds blown last week as the station’s sole laptop, which had disappeared from a community event we broadcasted at almost a month ago, was returned to us anonymously in the mail. Although it’s the ultimate bummer that someone decided to take such an essential piece of our equipment, it restored our faith bigtime knowing that the person ultimately opted to return the laptop unharmed.

Now we’re back in action and ready to take to the streets once again – CKUT remains unstoppable.
