  The Ad-Free Station Advertisers Love
KCRW was, for example, the first station anywhere to play Dido, whose song "Thank You" was picked up as the theme to the television show Roswell, then got sampled by Eminem, and went on to be an international smash.
KCRW is of course run more consistently and professionally than college radio, and dedicates far more of its air time to original music programs than most public radio.
And of course one side effect of the trend is that members of KCRW's crew increasingly end up competing against each other in the quest for the perfect song for this or that spot.

 Citizine - KCRW's Nic Harcourt, Jason Bentley, Trinidad
The Studio Upgrade was announced after the last KCRW pledge drive in which the station shattered previous fundraising records.
Bentley's beats are most def (on most weeknights), and are able to leap tall buildings and transform an otherwise unremarkable evening into a dance exploration of "the pulse of urban life." Metropolis casts the listener headfirst into the electronically manipulated artificiality of 21st century rave techno.
But the daddy of them all, these KCRW all-stars, is without doubt Nic Harcourt.
