Today would the be last day for 2021 for me to change up and add mp3s to my 19-year-old stream. I also got off my butt to check the logs and add the data about what has been played since mid-Fall. Ta-dah! KMAG played past the 2.6 million mark about two weeks ago which is an incredible feat. No radio station can claim such an accomplishment in so short a period thanks to their incessant jibber-jabber and ads, ads, ads! I’m giving you the stinkeye so-called “commercial free” NPR stations, including KUTX. I’d be amazed if they passed a million in 19 years since the consolidations set off in 1996.
The winner?
“New Love Cassette” by Angel Olsen.
A pretty good song yet it sounds more like something St. Vincent performs in the track’s style if you’re familiar with them.
On to 2.7 million!
