KDVS-Recordings CassetteOfTheMonth subscription club starting next month!

We are incredibly excited to announce our first multiple-release/series project! A subscription to the CassetteOfTheMonth club starts in October 2011 and ends in July 2012 spanning *10* cassettes mailed out one-per-month. Each cassette will be a split between one 'local' musician/band (davis/sacramento) and one 'out-of-town' musician/band attempting to make connections between what is going on in microcosmically within our immediate music scene and what is going on with other artists outside direct contact but in similar musical realms/with similar musical ideas.

Each tape will also feature a physical artist that will create work for the cover. Musicians involved include but are not limited to: A White Hunter, Luis Gutee, Mondo Lava, Eternal Tapestry, Mucky The Ducky, Lucky Dragons, Waxy Tombs, Sagan Genesis, Megazord, Beatie, Rubber0Cement, Pistol Pete, Moon Pearl, Burglars; More artists TBA soon!

KDVS is back on the air!

KDVS is now back on the air! Tune in 90.3fm and kdvs.org.

A contractor on campus cut a major power line and left the scene of the incident, forcing University officials to search for the damaged line using troubleshooting. The contractors are now working closely with the University to make sure this doesn't happen again during the course of construction.

KDVS was off the air on and off from 4:40pm to about 8:30pm on July 26th as intermitent power outages took the station off the air. The General Manager and Chief Engineer decided to take the station off of the air until the station had stabilized, worried that the constant power fluctuations would damage equipment.

UC Davis Facilities and management was not responsible for the power outage and is now making sure that the private contractors on campus operate under their direct supervisions to prevent another power outage of this nature.

Thank you for your understanding.

KDVS Off the Air Until 9:30AM PST - UC Davis Power Outages

Update: We're going off the air until 9:30am PST. The power is entirely undependable and we don't want to risk damaging equipment. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding. Be sure to tune in tomorrow!

We don't have a definite time for when power will be completely restored and the power has been going on and off every couple hours all evening so we've decided we just need to let these outages run their course. Power surges can be extremely harmful to our equipment and we cannot risk any further damage.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding. Be sure to tune in tomorrow!
