Every week some 200 community and independent college radio DJ's record their playlists and submit them to the Folk DJ list - http://lists.psu.edu/archives/folkdj-l.html - where the data is compiled by Richard Gillman. They participate because they believe the Folk DJ List best represents what those who truly love the genre care to present, not some contrived playlist based on Arbitron ratings and buttonholing dictated by highly paid music directors in business suits whose only connection with musicians is at trade conventions.
FOLKDJ-L is an electronic discussion group for DJs and other people interested in all folk-based music (bluegrass, old-time, traditional balladry, traditional international music, singer-songwriters, etc.) on the radio. With over nine hundred subscribers from all corners of the earth, we're a lively bunch with a unique perspective on folk music. Take a look at our digest archives and sign up for a folkdj-l subscription if what we do is of interest to you. Thanks for stopping by!
