Music radio online
Do you have a favorite online radio station that plays great music?
Living in the Denver area for 25+ years I discovered a public station (non-NPR) with lots of locally produced music shows. KGNU in Boulder, Co.
Airing everything from Classical to "Weird and obscure homemade music", plus the "Kabaret" show with live concerts from the studios, this is the most eclectic music station I've ever heard.
Working overnight at the time, Sleepless nights became a favorite show.
Over the years they have certainly exposed me to many artists that I might never have heard of otherwise.
look at the schedule for shows, times and days.
They even make recent past shows available for streaming, and the DJ's log every artist/song they play at the web site.
If you have a favorite maybe you could post it here.

A couple years ago they hooked up with NPR in New York so that we get morning shows form both coasts over here. Along with the typical indie rock playlists, they're also responsible for my introduction to the Soundway compilations as they regularly feature "world" music to tie-in with their world music show MoGlo.
My favorite station over the air is WREK, here in Atlanta, broadcasting from my alma mater, Georgia Tech. Their website, wrek.org, has a ton of functionality, including a running 7-day playlist and archive. Their slogan is "Music you don't hear on the radio!". Check the schedule, and you'll find something you like, cuz they play it all. Mornings they play classical and contemporary music, then a huge block of jazz. One of my favorite programs isn't music, but is a science talk show at lunch time called "Inside the Black Box". Wednesday nights are also fun, with the noise and experimental electronic. And late every night they play great ambient music.
KDHX St. Louis for an eclectic mix, including my friend Keith's Saturday morning bluegrass show.

Nice eclectic mix of rock, blues, jazz, world, folk, varies a bit with time of day/week, listener-supported, steers towards less mainstream stuff and airs local and small independent releases. Our favorite radio station in the car.
