Our Guarantee: No Christmas Music 'till 11/27!

ELVIS!!

I just edited the Timmy LIVE! announcement post to show that Elvis Presley is our Featured Artist this weekend! I’m also very excited to announce that starting that night, we will be adding Elvis Presley to our normal playlist rotations! I’ve rocked back and forth on this decision for a long while. I’ve tried to keep most of the music focused on the 80’s through today, but have added in some really essential classics that were big monster hits in the 60’s and 70’s recently.

I have always been a huge fan of Elvis and listen to his stuff pretty often. I think using Timmy LIVE! as an avenue to introduce him into our playlist is a great way to bring his huge hits into our stable of great music.

I hope you enjoy!

** Station Update: We changed our low bandwidth stream back to a mono MP3 stream at 32kbps. We researched things and found that MP3 is still the most universal format for streaming on smaller devices or lower bandwidth situations.

** ALSO: We proudly present the 2009 KXRT No Christmas Music Guarantee! There will be no Christmas songs played until midnight of 11/27/09 (The day after Thanksgiving).

More New Music!

Over the weekend I added another batch of great hit music to our already vast library!

• NEW: Tim McGraw – Southern Voice (Album)
• NEW: Bomshel – Fight Like A Girl (Album)
• Hootie & the Blowfish – Greatest Hits
• Green Day – International Superhits!
• Roxette – Joyride
• The Cranberries: Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?
• Fleetwood Mac: Greatest Hits

We continually are updating, expanding and improving our catalog of hits. We’ve also just inherited a massive collection of music that we are currently sifting through to broaden our selection even further. We will also adhere to our #1 rule: We are 100% Hits – 100% Fun! We hope you see that in our music and our presentation!

Thanks for listening to KXRT!

More New Music!

In our striving to keep KXRT hot and fresh, we’ve just added some more new music along with replacing some poor quality recordings with sparkly clean ones!
We’ve added Kenny Chesney’s Greatest Hits II and a compilation called Let It Rock… 1991.

This greatest hits album release includes 12 previously released singles along with 3 that are either brand new (Out Last Night) or not yet released as singles (I’m Alive (with Dave Mathews) and Be As You Are). We already had some of these hits in our library but they were recorded at a lower quality.

Let It Rock… 1991 is a compilation a lot like the Billboard Top Hits collections that are based on year of release. This beauty includes many precious gems of early 90’s pop hits. These include: Nelson – After The Rain, Everybody Plays the Fool – Aaron Neville and my personal favorite from the era: Gerardo – R-r-r-rico Suave!

These two new additions to our library reinforce why KXRT is truly 100% Hits – 100% Fun!

We hope you enjoy our vast music collection every day right here on KXRT!
