Based in Collingwood, PBS FM prides itself on being 'the home of little heard music', and that's exactly what they deliver all day, every day. You'll hear the finest in rock, indie, funk, soul, hip hop, electronic, jazz, world, blues and roots, and genres of music I've never even heard of.
Each program in the schedule goes for two to three hours and what you'll get in every show is a DJ who is passionate about music and wants to share their record collection and knowledge of the genre with you. That's it.
Being a non-commercial, community radio station, PBS do not get any financial support from government or through advertising. PBS members and the generosity of its volunteers and DJs, are its lifeblood. There are various levels of membership available from business, to band, to individual. Even your pet can become a member. You can become a Proud member for just $75, and less if you have a concession card.
For becoming a member, you can win loads of giveaways, get cheaper entry to PBS events (like the brilliant Soul-a-Go-Go at Bella Union), discounted movie tickets at Cinema Nova, and loads of other benefits, but mostly, you'll have that warm and fuzzy glow in your heart knowing that you've helped to make Melbourne, and inadvertently, the whole world, a better place.
