I wasn't a fan of the old format of mixing talk shows into the music channels, but that is how I discovered the Jason Ellis show ^. I like the new way how they split Faction and Faction Talk and listen to both frequently. I just hope that with the migration of Faction to the backwoods of the radio dial and moving the DJs to other channels that they don't get rid of it completely.
I like the music on Octane (it's my No. 1 preset in my car), but they have a smallish playlist. I can only listen to Starset so much. The bright side is they're very good about getting new music on the air. From my listening I bet 50% of their music was released within the past 12 months.
