The majority of the music is Visual Kei, but Enka, Valcoloid, and even VKei from other countries is played every now and them. They do a good job of grouping music genres together, so if you happen to not like Oshare, operatic pieces, or whatever style of music, you only have to mute the station for about 10min :P
Aside from genres, they have a fantastic collection of Visual Kei from all eras: X Japan classics, one-hit-wonders of the 90's, and even up to last month's new releases.

Tip for colored hair treatment-

Hey there Rockers!
It's been awhile, but here is some handy tips for taking care of your colored hair as well as how to remove color in safe steps.

MAKING CRAZY COLOR LAST LONGER

Avoid dandruff shampoo. You may not know but dandruff shampoo contains ingredients designed to really clean the hair and remove dandruff - these can also remove colour faster than you would like. It is not a suitable product for color fanatics. Avoid at all costs. Best to use a sulphate free or color friendly shampoo - which may help to reduce your colour loss.

Rinse hair with cold water, post shampooing. It closes the hair cuticles and seals in maximum colour.

Shampoo as little as possible. Semi-permanents will lose colour after each wash so avoid over-washing hair. 

No sunbathing. Too much direct sunlight will strip all that edgy Crazy Color right out.

Avoid swimming. Chlorine is another nasty product that will strip the life and color from your lovely hair so AVOID.

Use systems designed to protect hair colour especially those with leave-in conditioing products.

MAKE COLOR FADE FASTER

If you've changed your fickle mind and want another colour faster than it fades or if you've had a disaster.

Wash your hair as much as possible. Each wash will begin the colour fading process and the more you do it, the more it will fade.

Ditch your regular shampoo. Use anti- dandruff or clarifying shampoo or shampoos for greasy hair -not shampoos for dry, damaged or coloured hair.

Hot water opens the hair follicles and is guaranteed to speed up the fading process.

The salon. Or finally, the sensible option - go to a hairdresser who can professionally remove the unwanted colour.

REMOVING HAIR DYE FROM SKIN

If you have been left with some unwanted embarrassing stain's we have a few tips to remove them quick! Luckily enough you will have most of them in your cupboard.

Alcohol Dab a bit of the pure stuff on a piece of cotton wool and rub around the hairline or hands. (over 18s only)

Toothpaste is a handy one. Make it into a paste using soap and water - use a cotton bud around the hairline.

Bicarbonate of soda Apply a solution to the stained skin and rub gently.
