This also means that your royalties and rights are tracked and paid by Live365.com.

One of their opportunities is Mixtape Of The Month. It's exactly what it sounds like: a focus on one DJ monthly. It will play every day at the same time each month, and be available on their downloads section. The tape will change the first of each month, so stay tuned! You can also download software to hear BXKX on your cellular device. Only certain devices are supported right now, but more are being tested and projected to release Spring 2009 including iPhone and Blackberry.

Original programming, themed shows, and much more are already in production. This is not a repeating stream of MP3's, but an outlet for DIY hip-hop, a project that takes the best of the unheard and delivers them to you. There are "buy links" atatched to their playlists, so if your music is on iTunes or Amazon.com listeners can buy your music. Other than that, they offer no compensation for radio play. However, if you are selected you are encouraged to make a radio drop for rotation.

BXKX is selective, but very pen minded. They are not looking for "thug rap", "money gettin' rap", or things of that nature. Listen to the station; if you know the music you hear and your music can relate, they want to hear from you!
