We want your flashdrives!

Help us update our music library, and by 'help' we mean please upload your flashdrives with the sickest tunes that you probably obtained illegally.

Head on down to our office, open the door and stare at the wall. You will find a box who has no other purpose in life but collecting flashdrives. Please, help that box feel useful.

In search of tunage for your next important event?

Hire us.

We do things for free. Most of the time.

We'd love to crash your party.

Pick up the necessary forms in our office and make it happen. We're across from the Galley, in case you didn't already know where the music mecca was located.

WLSO is looking for DJs who are one of the following:

Full of Laker spirits.

Suffocated as a consequence of secondhand exposure to terrible music by means of their immediate peers.

Thinking there is not enough or too much of whatever on the radio.

Longing to chit-chat to the masses.

Chronically head-bopping alone in public and commonly seen walking briskly/antisocially, while attached to the wires of a portable music device.

In love with their own voice.

Consumers of music for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Have opinions.

Most importantly, living in the listening radius. (Yes students, that means you.)

Want to DJ? Let us know, stop by sometime.

You could be famous. Why wait?

Word to your mothers. No really tell your mothers. They’ll agree, this is a great idea.

Talk to Teddy.

Top 10 Albums of 2011

Mark Other, Station Manager

1. Bon Iver- Bon Iver

I bonded with this over the summer, but it's a year-round barrage of devastating loveliness.

2. John Maus- We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves

John Maus became my ultimate guru this year, as a vocalist, incredibly awkward live presence, absurdist philosopher, and virtuouso of obsolete synths.

3. PJ Harvey- Let England Shake

The first PJ Harvey album I've ever been able to like, which I eventually realized I actually loved. Perfectly subtle protest anthems.

4. M83- Hurry Up, We're Dreaming

Atmosphere galore, this is a double album of soaring ambition that delivers.

5. The Weeknd- House of Balloons

Sleazy, twisted, depraved- everything a good R & B album should be, and hasn't been until now.

6. Nicolas Jaar- Space is Only Noise

All about the details. Intricate and endlessly complex permutations of electronic mindbendingness.

7. Gang Gang Dance- Eye Contact

Art pop at its finest, finally giving the Lower East Side a decent sound to represent it for the first time since the pre-Moby era.

8. James Blake- James Blake

So much hype! So much living up to the hype!

9. Oneohtrix Point Never- Replica

For those moments in life when you are being chased by rabid demons through dark forests filled with corpses and werewolves. Because you never know.

10. Dirty Beaches- Badlands

The sound of the ideal 1950's I have created in my mind, that probably didn't really happen.

Baby G, Music Director

2. John Maus – We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves
