Pander Tantrums - KTUH Radiothon 2012

It's on, like Radiothon! Time again for KTUH's annual fundraiser where we kindly ask our wonderful listeners for support via 100% tax-deductible donations.

Thank you for supporting our small noncommercial college radio station. We promise to continue our dedication to bring you the best assortment of independent, underground, and generally overlooked music that our motley crew of music nerds can muster up. You are an invaluable part of the KTUH experience. We're looking forward to all of the years to come thanks to your continued support.

Here's the deal(s)...

If you donate during today's Timbre Tantrums(noon-3pm Hawaii Standard Time):

1. donations of $20+ receive a special Radiothon 2012 edition mix CD, curated by yours truly.

2. donations of $50+ receive the mix CD as well as a KTUH T-shirt

3. with every combined $500 donated, I will allow DJ Mr. Nick to tickle me for one-minute live on-the-air. p.s. I am very ticklish.

4. If the combined total reaches $1500, I will attempt to play guitar and sing while DJ Mr. Nick tickles me.

Donations can be made with check, money order, or credit card (cash okay, but check/MO/card preferred). To donate, call (808)956-7431

KTUH DJs Michelle LaBelle, Blotterpop, Mr. Nick, .p.e.a.r.l., and others will be standing by to take your donations.

Today's show is dedicated to KTUH DJs past, present and future. My musical taste is due in large part to other KTUH DJs throughout the years. Before I started working at the station as a DJ, I was a longtime listener and fan. Now I am a listener, fan, and a DJ. I am indebted to these people who have broadened my tasted and enriched my life with song.

Thus, today's show will feature songs in pairs. The first song of each pair will be a song that was introduced to me through another KTUH DJ/show. The second will be a song from Timbre Tantrums that (in my opinion) draws influence from the first. The purpose of this is really just to retrace my steps, and show how KTUH has played a large part in my success as a DJ today. I've really enjoyed putting this show together and remembering all the great songs and eccentric personalities that have graced KTUH's airwaves. I hope you enjoy it as well.

love,

Ryan Miyashiro a.k.a. DJ Ryan (No Cool Deejay Name)

For more info on Soundtap, see my former post, here or simply visit soundtap.com

It's that time of year again...KTUH Radiothon!!! As a noncommercial college station, KTUH is funded in small part by student fees, but mostly through the generous donations from you, our listeners. Thank you for your continued support. Last year's Radiothon was a success and the donations we received helped us with the much needed renovations to our air room and live room (still in progress).

This year we are focusing on getting a new and improved antennae that will boost our signal from 3000 watts to 6000 watts, increasing our converge area on the island and improving the quality of our signal. Thus our slogan for this year is Get It Up!

Donations are 100% tax-deductible, and all donations of $50+ will receive a free KTUH T-shirt. Other premiums may be available during different KTUH shows. With every $20+ donation made on Mar.20th, noon-3pm (Hawaii Standard Time) during Timbre Tantrums, you will receive a exclusive Timbre Tantrums mix CD. For more information, visit the KTUH Radiothon page.

Thank You!

I'd just like to say thank you to everyone for listening, and a very special thank you to those who donated today and yesterday. With your help, KTUH can continue its pursuit of sharing music we love with all of you.

For myself, Timbre Tantrums gives me something to look forward to every week, as well as in the days leading up to my show, as I search through my record collection and online to discover new music to share with you. I am grateful to KTUH for this wonderful opportunity to do so.

To my listeners: I appreciate all of your encouraging phone calls and email, so if there is ever any questions about any of the music that I play, please do not hesitate to contact me: djryan@ktuh.org or (808)956-7261 during my show.

love,
Ryan

KTUH Radiothon - You Scratch Our Back, We'll Clothe Yours

So here's the deal... Radiothon is KTUH's annual event to help our small yet oh so fabulous college radio station raise money to purchase much needed equipment (ie. cd players, mixing board, shelving, etc.). Our staff (of 56+ DJs, directors and office staff) are entirely comprised of non-paid volunteers, mostly of whom are students, and I assure you that none of us will ever see that money personally and your 100% tax deductible donation will go into maintaining and improving the station itself, thus helping KTUH at present and in the future, perpetuating our commitment to bring you quality commercial free college radio that is diverse, educational, and most of all pleasant to listen to.

Anyone can donate at anytime throughout the year, but Radiothon is when we really "ham it up," and try to sweeten the deal by adding extra incentives. Each DJ sets their own goals and tries to reach them by offering different things to listeners who donate during the 3 hours course of their show during Radiothon. I am no exception. Here's is what I'm willing to do to get your money:

Donations can be made by calling (808)956-5284

1. All donations made during my show today (noon to 3pm Hawaii Standard Time) will receive a KTUH sticker and a limited hand-made Radiothon mix CD with songs featured on my Timbre Tantrums as well as some new ones. They will be hand numbered and will not be offered after Radiothon.


2. Donations of $50 or more will also receive a KTUH t-shirt and the latest edition of Contrast Magazine. T-shirt designs shown below. Please specify design and size. Note: One shirt per donation. Certain design/size may not be immediately available and require reprinting causing a slight delay in shipment. This doesn't mean that we don't love you. Seriously, it's not you, it's me...I mean us. Just don't worry, we got your back (literally).

3. If a total of $1000 is raised during my show, I will dress up and talk like a pirate for a day. I'll make sure that it's on a Tuesday, when I have class on campus, do my radio show, go grocery shopping, and am generally out and about in public. Pictures will be taken and posted on the blog.

4. Should $2000 be made during my show, I will dress like a school girl, complete with pig-tails with ribbons and a Mandy Moore backpack that I got for free when I worked at Tower Records. Same thing. Pictures + blog = shame. This will be in addition to pirate day. Yarrrr!

5. If we hit $3000 by show's end...well, I don't know, but I'm open to suggestions. I'll have the other DJs pick the most embarrassing one.


Here's your shirt choices. All are available in Men's & Women's sizes:

KTUH Round Logo

Cupcake
(designed by your favorite DJ and mine, DJ Marbles of Let's Get Lost!)

Headphones - black

Headphones - white

Radiothon! It's On Like Donkey Kong!

Radiothon begins tonight at midnight and runs 24/7 through midnight next Saturday Jan. 27th. Donations can be made by calling (808)956-5284. Donations of $50 or more receive a KTUH t-shirt (note: One shirt per donation. Please specify shirt size). Be sure to tune in during your favorite KTUH shows, as some DJs will also have added incentives to accompany your donation, so you might want to donate at that time.

Come join us for our kick-off party tomorrow night, where KTUH DJ's (including myself) will be dropping jams left and right for your booties to go up and down to. There will also be live music by Theme Parks and Shopping List.
