The Reviews Are In: "A Must Listen."
I love Journey Into Mystery and the ability to listen remotely (from California, in my case). I am happy to support independent community radio.

This dude gets the Excellent Award for rockin’ me through firewood! It’s 2 AM here and below freezing. Please express my thanks.

The music you’re playing today, & most days, puts me in a good mood. Uplifting, memories, eclectic mix, I love it! And, I don’t have to be in love with somebody, if he can do a two step, I would be so happy! Keep it up, Dr B!!
-Patty N
The DJs make an effort to not only share but TEACH the music that inspires them. So much more rewarding than what you find on the mainstream.

Dare to say your host Derek seems to be a most passionate music lover. I love love the variety and the random tracks selected. Today is the first time I’ve tuned in to the show “Mindful Mix.” And I’m spreading the word! So keep ’em spinning y’all!

Thanks to Geri Valdriz for playing the music of my life as well as those of my parents and grandparents! My husband enjoys many of Mana’o’s show–right now, he happily has on Sweet Mama D’s blues show.

As always your music today was great. We are of the same age range and I think this maybe why I like your music selections so much. I have enjoyed J.J. Cale forever and had the pleasure to see him in concert several times in CA before he became too ill to preform.
Not much into TV. I listen to music (Mana’o Radio) all day, every day…..it’s my therapy. Thank you so much for what you do.

Phat Tony is our fave. Excellent / sophisticated musical taste. How about some Firesign Theater snippits, Bonzo Dog Doo Daa Band & maybe Rob & Ray. We’ll keep listening!

I haven’t encountered a radio station as innovative, refreshingly original, and creatively varietal as Mana’o since the WHFS days in DC and the WTJU days during my college years. Rock, jazz, punk, country, pop, indie, emo, disco, blues, folk, Hawaiian, new wave, roots – that’s probably not all of the genres I’ve listened to over the years. You guys are GREAT. Every DJ possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of the background of the artists and songs they play. The passion I hear on my radio/laptop often as a DJ explains, explores, extrapolates on various song meanings, influences, and personal stories are priceless. Keep it up, amigos. Man, you’re awesome. Every day and All.Night.Long.
