2025 Oroko Radio Residency Program for Africans

The Oroko Radio invites all music creatives, DJs and content creators interested in hosting their show to submit their show for consideration. Your show doesn’t need to be a DJ mix! You can play full songs without transitions, talk in between, host a talk show, put together sound collages – the more variety the better.
