Folks,

Firstly, the important stuff:

Altrok Radio is at http://www.altrokradio.com

Please remember to tune in whenever you can - every hour you listen turns into more visibility for the station; we show up higher in search listings, and such like that.  And if you'd like to help us keep the stream running, check out the advertisers if they appeal to you; your interest actually helps fund us.

Now then, in addition to the outstanding Altrok Radio music mix that got us an Editor's Pick nod at Live365 and at About.com, we've begun to add features we know you'll like...

Thursdays at 11:30am Eastern, Ferris O'Brien hops aboard the Altrok Radio signal to give you a taste of his approach to the world of alternativity.  He's bringing you the overflow from his own SpyRadio showcase at Rock 100.5 The KATT in Oklahoma City, itself the lingering legacy of 105.3 The Spy, a legendary indie station in its own right that disappeared one night.  No reason to quit just 'cause the station's gone, right?

Then at 1:30pm Thursday (approximately) you get to hear me showcase the new stuff we've added this week on the Altrok Radio FM Showcase.  New stuff, classic stuff, and Jeff Raspe with his Altrok Radio Underground Pick Of The Week...

And on Friday, it's Altrok's Eighties Friday: music from the eighties that mattered then AND now.  An eight hour playlist that features some of the best that decade had to offer, drawing from all the music that was available at the time (yes, even from the seventies.)

As if that weren't enough, Fridays at 11:30 you'll find DJ Shred's live DJ Set as queued at Luke & Leroy in the West Village, NYC.  You'll be able to join her as she creates her next one on November 24 at 10PM at the club:

DJ Shred at Luke & Leroy
10pm-Midnight (maybe earlier if the stars align properly)
21 7th Avenue South (between Carmine & Leroy Sts)
West Village, NYC
