Just days after Cincinnati-based indie radio station WOXY.com announced that a lack of funding would silence it for good, the founders of dollar-a-disc trading site lala.com swooped in to save the day. Almost a month after returning to the airwaves, the partnership with lala intends to expand WOXY’s beloved live broadcasts, “Lounge Acts,” to include sessions from San Francisco, New York, Austin, and other hubs of musical ingenuity. Registered lala members can also generate podcast-style radio stations of their own from over 150,000 tracks in a forthcoming Citizen Radio feature. Until then, 165 beta stations like the Anglophiliac Britpop Mainstays & Requisites or the eclectic Alternative Algebra (and, of course, WOXY itself) crank out jams you’d never hear on a clock radio.
