WFMU

Independent non-commercial freeform radio station which first went on the air on April 24, 1958. Formerly affiliated with Upsala College, in East Orange, New Jersey, WFMU purchased its license from Upsala, and became fully independent shortly before the closing of the College on May 31, 1995. Relocated in August 1998 to Jersey City, WFMU's license is now owned by Auricle Communications, a non-profit group made up of current and former WFMU staff members and listeners. Selected recordings are made available for download via the Free Music Archive.
