Minnesota Daily
Beat Radio, 97.7 FM. 391-BEAT. http://www.beatworld.com.
A new low-power radio station, Beat Radio, began broadcasting out of Minneapolis
this past July. Offering dance music aficionados house, techno, hip hop and trip
hop, Beat Radio airs weekdays from 4 p.m. to 3 a.m. and 11 a.m. to 4 a.m. on the
weekends. Local club DJs account for approximately 50% of the station's programming,
ranging from Donna Summer to Aphex Twin. Because it's unlicensed by the FCC, its
signal can be difficult to pick up far from outside the downtown and uptown areas.
The upside is, if you do receive it, they don't air commercials, so you can shake
your booty all night without being interrupted.
