At his summer orientation session, he called WCBN to inquire about being a DJ, and he was invited to come to the station and be trained.
So, in order to keep WCBN afloat and commercial-free on the air, the station has been forced to become more independent and seek other means of funding, including fundraisers and selling ads in their program guide.

It's called WCBN 2/8/2001 so I gather it was recorded live on the radio and I can just see the folks at the station squirming.
Their 26' live tour de force (WCBN 2/8/2001) starts with a menacing storm of feedbacks and heavy factory-like noises to evolve (or collapse) into a sort of anti-rock beast with "standard" instruments (I think sax, guitars and percussions) and a voice, all raped beyond recognition.
Wolf Eyes' "WCBN 2/8/2001" is a bit more dynamic, often using silence and a single elements such as a synthetic bass drum to hold the work together.

By their own account, 88.3 WCBN, the student-run radio station of the University of Michigan, is more than just physically to the left of the dial, as their “freeform” programming entertains only but the most free thinking and progressive students on campus.
WCBN is not content to serve the students’ tastes; instead, it pumps out a continuous stream of alternative and indie crap.
Since they had heard it on WCBN, it definitely would have to be in the WCBN music library.

At WCBN, freeform is the preferred format, setting 88.3 apart from the increasingly homogenized radio taking over the rest of the dial.
