Canadian Radio Station recomendations (w/ Online straming)

Post by Kicker774 »

So I usually listen to Edge 102.1 in Toronto online at work but lately I've been growing tired of hearing the same stuff all day all week.

The Gollias new song was cool when it first came out but I swear I hear it 4 times a day and it's getting played to death. They used to have a good mix of all the OLP songs but lately all I've been hearing is ALS.

Can someone recomend a new radio station similar to the Edge put still manages to mix in healthy doses of '90s music as well?

Ugh and now Coldplay, could this guy be more EMO? :roll:

Thanks for any suggestions!

Pandora or Launch are good for creating your own radio station. It will only play what you like.

Yea I listed to that kind of thing a few years back.
Thing is you don't get any current rock news and stuff like that.

I kinda like to have a DJ telling me what I'm listening to. More than just a name but small bios on them or whatever tidbits DJ's throw out when intoducing a song or whatever.

It's not Canadian, but if you wanna support a station with djs who are very passionate about music and were all fired one day so that a rap station could take their place, give Y100rocks a listen:
