Since 1976, STAR'S END has been providing the Philadelphia broadcast area with music to sleep and dream to.
There are many suggested uses for the program, but most people tune their radio to STAR'S END as they get into bed on Saturday night and allow the gentle aural soundscapes to influence their sleep and dreams.
The music is presented in a non-stop drifting blend and drawn from a diversity of genres including: electronic, ambient, spacemusic, chillout, avant-garde, low-intensity noise, new age, international, spoken word, soundtracks and classical.
STAR'S END, hosted by Chuck van Zyl, broadcasts live weekly beginning at 1:00am on Saturday night until 6:00am Sunday morning (USA Eastern Time Zone). Originating from WXPN, Non-commercial Radio from the University of Pennsylvania, STAR'S END has occupied this time slot since its inception back in 1976 making it one of the longest running radio programs of Ambient/Space music in the world.
WXPN's signal is sent to various other radio stations, repeaters and translators throughout Pennsylvania and Maryland:
* 88.5FM WXPN Philadelphia, PA
* 88.7 FM Middletown, York and Lancaster, PA
* 90.5 FM WKHS Worton/Baltimore, MD
