"Down on the Corner," KUNI's weekly spotlight of local/regional artists is continually looking to add new regional music to our library. If you are from our broadcast region and you have songs without the seven nasty words that we could lose our license for airing, we want to play your music. We play any style from Polka to Punk, Blues to Speed Metal, Folk to Funk. We play from cassette tape, compact disc, CDR, digital audio tape, and vinyl. Send your music to DOTC, KUNI 90.9 FM, 3rd Floor, CAC, Cedar Falls, IA 50614-0359 or DOTC, PO Box 14, Cedar Falls, IA 50613
