About Me

Tagline
We play music that's not in the Top 40, but should be!
Me, Myself, and I
We're a bunch of lunatics that enjoy broadcasting so much that we do it in our spare time for nothing. Why? We like playing our music for you, we like playing our music for US, we wanna make a difference (some of us!), we support local and New Zealand music, we support local music venues, we "Do For The Love Of It"... all kinds of reasons.

If you listen to Control, please join. Show your support for us, and we'll keep you entertained with our phat phat beats. Just remember, we're not professionals, we just do this for fun. When we screw up, that's why... not that we screw up much!

    Hi kids!!!

    The Radio Control official website (www.radiocontrol.org.nz ) is now under construction. Not everything has been updated, but things are beginning to change. The latest Top 11 is on there now, and NZ Music Month has passed (finally! Longest May ever! :D ).

    Keep it locked to us... tear the tuning knob off if you have to.

    Love, peace and respect,
    Blair :D

    Big thanks to The Nerines and Us As Robots! What a fan-freakin-tastic performance!

    The Nerines covering You Wanna Piece of Me (Spears), and I Bet You Look Good on The Dancefloor totally cracked my shit up!

    And Us As Robots covering Jimi Hendrix's Fire and Britney Spears's Toxic rocked the world as we know it!

    RESPEK BOYS!
