We are music people. Just like you. This radio is a mirror of our souls. Our mission is to search out and expose great new music to people who otherwise may never encounter it. So please enjoy our vibes, cause our music never ends.

Our Program Director/DJ, Patrick Rule, has 4 decades of music industry experience, including 8 years as a Broadcast DJ, 6 years as a Club DJ, and 15 years operating this station. From promoting Tracy Chapman’s debut record to Number One on College Radio, to tour managing Big Mountain and Robin Trower, “DJ Trick” has done just about everything in the music biz. He has an ear for talent and is always searching for Hit Indie Music.

Our radio station launched on June 21st, 2009 as IRMG (Independent Radio for Multiplayer Games) and established a presence in the online virtual world of Second Life. IRMG was the first station to bring Indie Music in-world, and we continue to have a strong presence at the Firestorm Major Events area. On alternating Fridays, catch the DJ Trick Show live from Second Life, or via our online streams.

We add new music Twice Monthy on our LIVE DJ SHOW, which airs alternating Fridays from 4-6 pm Eastern/1-3 pm Pacific. As we review your songs, we’ll reach out to you and connect via E-Mail and Facebook.

Once we’ve decided when your music will be added, we will notify you via the e-mail address you’ve provided to let you know when your music will debut on our Live Show.

Once your music is selected, it will be featured in one of our New Music rotations for about a month or so. New Music tracks generally receive between 4 to 6 spins per day during their stay in New. Once your music has “run its course”, it will reside in one of our specific Genre rotations, where it will receive a spin or two every week indefinitely.

As you will hear in our rotations, we have several artists that have multiple tracks spinning in our rotations over the years. We consider the artists we spin as a part of the HotWaxRadio.com family. We have great appreciation for the recording artists that allow us to share their music with our listeners. It is your music that makes our station sound so good!
