What to send KIPE
KIPE publishes a submission route rather than a general inbox. Follow it exactly; the route is the first thing they check.
Send the clean edit if you have one. KIPE is FCC-bound during the day like nearly every station on this list, and a clean version simply gets played more often.
WAV is safest, 320 kbps MP3 is the floor. Anything below that gets noticed quickly on a broadcast chain.
KIPE is volunteer-run. The person reading your email is doing it for love of the music, so be brief, be human, and follow up once at most.
Then wait. Give it about two weeks, send one polite follow-up, and let it go after that. Music directors remember the artists who were easy to deal with.
KIPE submission questions
Does KIPE accept music from independent artists?
Not confirmed. We have verified the station but have not found a working submission route for KIPE yet.
How do you submit music to KIPE?
No route is posted. The station's own posted guidance is: No station website found and the licensee's own site does not mention the station, so no route is published anywhere we could read.. We have not found a route KIPE publishes for music, so there is no address on your sheet for it either. It is listed so you know the station is real and do not spend a send hunting for a door that is not posted.
What kind of music does KIPE play?
KIPE is freeform, so it programmes across genres and routes music to individual shows rather than one central playlist.
Where is KIPE located?
KIPE broadcasts on 89.7 FM from Pine Hills, California. It is a community station.
Every door is on your sheet.
Pick your sound and region on Rotation and each of these stations shows its real submission contact and the exact rules it posts: clean edit, WAV, form or mail. Checked by hand and kept current. No station here paid to be listed.
Radio is the free half, and it stays that way. Every station here is free to reach and no station ever pays to be listed. The Doors is the other half: 100 verified places that are not radio, sync libraries, music supervisors, festivals, contests, live sessions and the music press, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. It also lists the 162 we opened and refused, with the reason each one failed, because most lists of this kind are stale and the rejections are the part nobody else will show you. $9.99, the 2026 Q3 edition →
