And, a lot of people today, since music education is virtually nonexistent in public schools, they don't even know what they've been missing in terms of music from other cultures, music from America from other periods, (and) different styles. You may not like it all, but if you don't even know that it exists, how are you going to make up your mind?" -- Frank Zappa 9:00 PM - Midnight Lance or 45 RPM Leftfield Lance Psychedlic guitar freakouts, free jazz blowouts, and anything and everything in off-kilter pop, soul, funk.

Substitute DJs:
listen for them as they pop onto the KAL-X airwaves Almost Paradise All the dark glamour you'd expect of a Gothic New Wave Gypsy Cabaret, but hosted by someone nice. I am especially partial to acapella, cover versions, and anything sung in German. Request something! Annabelle Anonymous Heavy metal, e-z listening, horror, disco, hardcore, jazz, harsh noise, pop, folk, new wave, industrial, etc. The Bipolar Bear Friday morning dance parties! Bird Alderon A Taste Safari Brother Grimm The Pop Philosopher -- only slightly mental. Carnacki Scandinavian folk classical ghost stories and cod surrealism. All Current music. C.K. Dexter-Haven Just when you think I'm gonna zig, I zag. Unless, of course, I zig. Or just fall down laughing. Concrete Skyline Electronica (IDM, glitch, ambient, trip-hop, drum and bass), Rock (indie rock, shoegazer, dream-pop, math-rock, prog rock, instrumental metal, virtuoso guitar), Hip hop (alternative and golden age rap, turntabilism), local bay area musicians, orchestral / sountrack score, four part harmony / a cappella, and classic comedy. Dave Dimond An eclectic mix of many musical styles (mainly death metal, speed metal, doom metal, stoner metal, stoner doom metal, post metal, metal metal, and the entire Kenny G catalog). Degenerate Disco Shawn indie rock, post punk, hip hop, new wave, punk and a million other subgenres too tedious to list. and yes, he still plays that "techno" music - for the kids, of course. plenty of ridiculous segues too. Eddy Bauer Old Stuff That Sounds New, New Stuff That Sounds Old. Family Man I lean towards rock, blues, soul, country, but am always looking for stuff that's new to me and you. Gatsby The very best in indie rock, hip hop, soul, funk, and electro-- with a generous helping of ego. Girl in the Green Jacket Good Times with Cupcakes JJ So long as it doesn't suck ass, you can hear it on my show . . . except Indian ragas, I will never play an Indian raga. Expect to hear country yodeling, punk, noise, new wave, blues, indie-rock, no-wave, doo-wop, indie-pop, ska, calypso, power-pop, lots of local bands, and the occasional on-air phone call. The Return of E. Rodney Jones Joanna Manqueros Johnny Savage For true rockers only. Kaleid An exploration into the composition of sound. Obligatory non-comprehensive list of genres: electronic, indie rock, new wave, industrial, jazz, funk, and, if you're lucky, Norwegian avant garde old school acid polka. Kennybear He will sleep 'till noon, but before it's dark, he'll play every rockin' tune this side of Til-den Park. Kenny has it better than a millionaire, if you've got the chops the Bear will give you some air! Kitty I like to play cool music, And, yeah, I talk a lot. Lou Guru Always some classical, a lot of punk, a mixture of anything else weird or funny or mood-of-the-day, plus a lot of very innane commentary. Usually there's something French too. The Man Who Was Eaten By A Sandwich Matokie Twang twang twang, bleep bleep bloop, ob la di, deedly boodly, raaaraaar, doo bee doo, scitchy scratch, bow chicka bow bow, bounce bounce bounce, la dee dah.

New Deal post-punk righteous noisy mutant disco soul pop jams Peterhurney This one likes to hijack the Midnight Express Show and take the Midnight Ukulele Express out for a spin once a month. You’ll hear the ukulele music that your mother never told you about. Pop Goes the Weasel Hello, my name is Pop...and I am a musical hedonist. Queen Bee I play what I like, which is sometimes cheesy, sometimes underground hip hop, sometimes electro and new wave and usually high energy to make you shake yer stuff. I like fun music, but with substance and a damn good beat. Check out my playlists at http://blog.myspace.com/queenbeekalx or email me for more info! DJ Rawman Tidbits - this and that, a little somethin' somethin'. Do that thing. U knowww. Playlists available at djrawman.whatitiz.biz Rubberband Girl Sad saps and pop tarts SamtheRam It's my pleasure to give a little help to my friends, when they can't be there for you all. When I sub, I make an effort; usually to play music reminiscent of what you would of been hearing at that time. I'm a avid listener to the station. I get very bored with my own taste, if I don't have outside stimuli. Grazing the peeks and valleys of the KALX library, is a labor of love. If it's not overplayed, I'll spin it!

Spanky hyper-active sugar addict where listeners hear things falling and crashing in the background Studebaker Not your father's dad-rock! Therese Just in time for your Saturday night prowl, Therese will rawk off your socks with a feisty blend of indie, rock'n'roll, psych, folk, electro, and etc. Tiger Lily A manic, sleep-deprived stew of '70s punk, glam, rockabilly, '50s rocknroll, doowop, '60s girl groups, pub rock, garage, punkrocknroll, and whatever else provokes riots on your own personal dancefloor.
