If you are a DJ at multiple stations, you log in to all of them with the same email/password and switch between DJ personas when logged in.

Access your DJ profile and User account through the drop-down menu at the right of the top navigation bar. This is also where you log out.

Sign-up

If your station is using Spinitron, there are two ways of creating a user account.

  • By station admins: you receive an email from Spinitron with a link to create your password.
  • Self-service: choose your station and answer the Security question set by your station admin.
