The Reviews Are In: "A Must Listen."
The best station anywhere on the planet, in my not so humble opinion.

I was steaming the New Orleans Jazz Fest at home today and then I found out our own Mana’o radio was carrying their feed! So hip, you guys!!!! I love it and thanks.

Hula Honeys, you made my day by playing ‘S.P.C.’ by Zeca Pagodinho. In Brazil, S.P.C. refers to the debtor in loan documents . Besides being lively and danceable, that classic samba is also poetic and hilarious. Thanks again!

Hi, I have been playing Mana’o radio every day since discovering you two weeks ago. I am an artist and paint full time from my studio in Wellington, New Zealand. I lived in Wailuku in 1997 and 1998 and this is where I met my wife, a kiwi who was backpacking her way up through. I’m frequently nostalgic for my time in Hawaii when I was in my early 20s and still feel a deep connection, so it delightful to discover your station which is not only Hawaiian, it is eclectic and original with terrific programming. I’m really pleased to have found you. I was a full time painter in Hawaii too…though lived a bit more frugally. ( I’m from Ireland). It’s funny how a moment in time, – my time in Maui, often spent painting up in Iao Valley, or out in Hana, can be still so significant . Happy birthday and keep up the terrific original music mix. Best wishes |

I think your M-F mid-day programs are the best! Bill has always been great. And now w/Jimmy C’s Jazz and Kristy & Sara’s Elec-boost. I look forward to being on the road and listening 10a-2p. Mahalo

Mahalo for the Hawaiian & Memphis sounds. Got me from Kihei to Waiohuli.

What a GREAT list! Monday, dreary, rainy and gloomy…EXCEPT for Derek’s selections. What a GAS of a Monday morning.
-Tracy Mills
Just love everything you are playing from my time. Keep it up. I did break down once reminiscing with joy to have been there. Early FM was awesome in’68-70 cruising Colorado Blvd in Pasadena, the Free Press head shop etc. Thanks brother!
