Rock Xinês, Dióxido, Rumores do Planeta, Rota das Tormentas, O Caçador de Cabeças, Canções de Coimbra, ...: these were enormous shows broadcast on RUC, shows that a lot of people still remember and few people have yet had the chance to listen. During the late 90ies, a listenner compulsively recorded RUC's broadcast on cassette tape. This faithful listenner is american, doesn't live anymore in Coimbra, and kindly provided copies of all these audio records. Give it a listen, and if you can identify the host or the program, send us some feedback (historia_at_ruc_point_pt) All the cassette tape recordings are here: http://rucoldschool.podomatic.com/ http://rucoldschool2.podomatic.com/ http://rucoldschool3.podomatic.com/ http://rucoldschool4.podomatic.com/ http://rucoldschool5.podomatic.com/ So, what's RUC? Radio Universidade de Coimbra (RUC) is the oldest running university radio station in Portugal, a freeform independent alternative radio station - both a radio-school and a local broadcaster in central Portugal (107.9 FM). All radio programs are author's programs. This means that all compulsory playlists are banned by principle. The person hosting a radio program is entirely free to choose which music to play. As a result, there's a multiple and eclectic offer of radio contents - programs ("shows") about pop, rock, electronic, dance, jazz, classical music, soundtracks, covers, portuguese music, japanese music, canadian music, chiptunes, hip hop, worldmusic, blues, rockabilly, chanson française, gothic, punk, krautrock, noise, experimental improvisations performed live, metal, medieval, exotica, mathematics, literature, cinema, ecology, science... check it here: http://www.ruc.fm and listen live: http://www.ruc.fm/emissao.phpmore
