Now in chapter two

From a live broadcaster into a legacy project.

The station is evolving. Music, art, and editorial artifacts are building a direct-to-fan path that doesn’t wait for an algorithm or a label to notice.

    Zines, covers, posters, ticket-art.

Editor’s letter

“This isn’t a stream that happens to have merch bolted on. It’s the long tail of Canadian independent music — frozen into art, signed on-chain, and handed back to the fans who asked for it.”
