INTRODUCING Soil - A KRUI Compilation 🌾

Soil aims to highlight artists that have influenced the sound alternative of Iowa in recent times, and in turn our beloved radio station, KRUI 89.7FM.

Vast sonic landscapes are presented in this compilation, from dreamy synths paired with minimal drums to eclectic guitars with harsh vocals. Some serve to be paired on your drive along I-80, or your daily commute to your work. Other tracks can be heard in nightclubs if you so desire.

Pre-orders are live now: https://krui897.bandcamp.com/album/soil-a-krui-compilation

Cassettes coming soon! 📼

🚨Update for our KRUI listeners:

Earlier this week, a flood at our station caused significant damage to our technology and infrastructure. As a result, all shows are on hold for now.

We’re currently running on a backup system and expect shows to return in about two weeks - though this timeline is tentative. Moving forward, shows will be broadcast from a secondary studio while the main one undergoes repairs and renovations for the rest of the semester.

Thanks for your patience and support! 📻
