They also played overnight songs during 9:29PM EST during ICHT and FFN back in 2006. Those hours normally play primetime songs.

Strange, on the 12:58 AM CT LF, the IS cued as normal, but it froze, and stayed that way for a few seconds, and then went to a silent Satellite LF, then after a few minutes the audio came back on. I thought my IS had crashed for a second until my LDL came up just fine the next segment... :huh:

It's production music. TWC only plays BMI songs

Yep. Not all. Most are songs they licensed on BMI for their Local on the 8s. Some artists who dont have BMI will send their CD to TWC (like Michael Ripoll) and if Brian likes it, he'll play it.

So, in one post, you say, (TWC only plays BMI music)

Then in the next post you say, (If Brian likes it, he'll play it).

Which is it? :huh:

TWC's licensing department does that. He just selects them.

I find it interesting that he has an open budget for music. Seems like that could get costly. :o

Yeah licensing 35 songs per month. I don't think I'd have enough money to do that.

But basically, most of the unavailable songs are in BMI that TWC uses. So sometimes the artists will send the music and they license it for usage.
