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.
