WCDB Production (Station IDs and carts)
The WCDB Production department has always been in charge of the
short form material heard between the songs (aside from the DJs of course).
Production played an important role in announcing concerts and community
events, announced the times of the many specialty shows, and also helped
position the station as a music alternative
to the listening community. Over the many years of WCDB history, some
producers had a big impact on the sound of the station, but in fact
anyone who cared enough to create a production piece (a cart)
helped shape the on air sound of WCDB.
The art of making "carts" for WCDB is sadly in decline. We hope
by showcasing the vast creativity of past carts that we can reverse that
trend.
Production audio is assigned into several producer-centric galleries
as well as galleries of other production by era. We are not able to identify
the producers of all these items, so if you know who produced something
in our collection that says "producer unknown," please let us know.
