Music Department

CKUT’s music programming emphasizes the uncommon, the new, and the daring. We have a variety of specialized music programs as well as open format programs that span many musical genres. DJs make their own musical selections, without the aid of a playlist, choosing from recordings sent to CKUT by artists and record companies around the world as well as from their own private collections.

Check out our radio programming and Music Department Podcast.

This blog is co-authored by the CKUT music department staff and interns. We post about department news, projects and music we are excited about on the regular.

Get in touch anytime: music@ckut.ca or 514-448-4041 ext. 0842. Click here for information about how to file a listener complaint.
