LES.FM I Lower East Side Radio
LES.fm founded at the Lower East Side, New York City in August 2011 at the Ludlow Studio on 177 Ludlow Street. A mythological rehearsal space, home to Blondie, Suicide, Suffocation, The Rapture, The Ramones, Lady Gaga, etc. The formation of the radio was a mutual effort of Marco Megira, Ariel De Lion, and Clayton Patterson. After six months, Marco sold the building, and the radio moved to The Living Theatre on 21 Clinton Street. A year later, The Living Theatre lost their space, and The Radio moved east to Bushwick into the Music Wagon collective on 347 Maujer Street.

New Years Eve special broadcast, Streaming live 'The History of The World’: "At 85, Judith Malina rocket from prehistory (positing Neanderthal practices of female enslavement) to the Crucifixion; religious wars (“There is no God!” a theatergoer spontaneously cried on a recent night); the Age of Discovery (the audience members lie on their backs, arms simulating ocean waves as Columbus sailed past); the French Revolution; the Industrial Revolution; the Internet; and, of course, Occupy Wall Street.” -New York Times
