DJNYC Music Service has an extensive and diverse music library, available on CD or mp3, that covers just about any musical genre.
Of course, we update our music library regularly. We've listed some of the artists we like in several genres below. This is not a comprehensive list
(and is no particular order other than alphabetical)
and not included are standards or pop hits.
Also, we're huge fans of KCRW, pretty much any music show on there, from Nocturna to Chocolate City to Morning Becomes Eclectic.
