Do you like to judge people based on their music taste? Do you like to hear what other people consider good music? Do you like random chaos and absurdity? Then tune in to Sound and Sentiment, every Monday night from 8:00-10:00, the show where people talk about their favorite music, play it, then talk about it some more.

Matthew’s Midnight Metal

Friday Nights 10pm – Midnight

Host: Matthew Tiffany

On Matthew’s Midnight Metal, each week is a new theme of rock/metal. For example, past episodes themes have been “rock ballads,” “live metal,” and “British metal.” Your host, Matthew, explains the connection of each song to the weekly theme, and takes personal song requests from KTCU listeners. Most nights will feature heavy metal, rock, and some 80s pop. If you love old school music, tune in on Friday nights from 10pm until midnight!

Rock Menagerie

Sunday Nights 7pm – 9pm

Host:  Dale Gleitz

The Rock Menagerie has evolved from its beginnings as an outlet for album tracks to theme-based programming, i.e. each week’s music shares a common bond. Past highlights include the annual Halloween Special and the nights where the songs were about dogs, Hollywood or Mother’s Day.
The music featured on the Rock Menagerie is generally up tempo rock-and-roll songs from 1964 to present, all selected by host Dale Gleitz. The play list includes all genres of rock and roll. On a given Sunday night, you might hear several of these musical classifications: heavy metal, jazz fusion, bubble gum, new wave, stadium rock, novelty songs, comedy bits, country rock, psychedelic, etc.
