CJLO

Ho ho ho! It's Metal March time again! Gather round children as we tell tales of yelling voices, blast beat drums, and shredding guitars during this the loudest month at CJLO! When we started Metal March six years ago, we wanted to be able to celebrate not just loud music but also the contribution that loud music has made to the culture at large and how Montreal and CJLO have played into that, and this year is no different.

CJLO tends to attract community members who are intensely passionate about art, whether they’re creators, consumers, or both. As a result, checking out our yearly “best of” lists is a great way of keeping up with great releases that may have flown under your radar this year. With the station’s wide range of tastes, from crusty hardcore to electro-pop, there’s surely something for everyone to discover. Music-based lists also weren’t the only thing submitted, so make sure to look out for top movies as well!

It's been 50 years that the Festival du Nouveau Cinema has graced the Montreal festival scene, bringing the forefront of new international film to our backyard. This year things are back to business as usual, opposite of 2020’s necessary push to online screenings. This October the audience has both the option for online or in person viewings, the latter involving the city’s most renowned art house and independent cinemas. Special events to commemorate the 50 years include a master class with legendary filmmaker Jane Campion, as well as their usual prizes, VR presentations and much more.

Hi I'm Ryan aka DJ Slurp and I co-host Mouse Party every Wednesday [3PM].

Every week we play anything from pop punk to postpunk and we try to feature as much new and local music as we can. It's a good time 

I'm a 63 old very pissed off hippie (unicorn), who never once voted for the tax cutters and the heartless assholes that have spent the last 40 years destroying the social safety net. My show highlights corporate media lies, spin, bullshit, malfeasance, whoring, and other crimes against humanity. And I play great jazz in between segments. Listen to Your Media Sucks every Monday at 8AM.

For this week's DJ Spotlight, get to know the people behind Be-Pop-A-Lula and Hidden Gems!
