Pacific Leisure FM 82.6

Kokushi's in-house radio station played in offices, lifts and company housing. After hours, something else played on the same frequency.

The station

Pacific Leisure FM broadcast continuously to every Kokushi floor, lift and company home: morning programming, announcements and “approved music”. Domestic receivers were fixtures, not property.

Station idents from the period end the same way:

Everything is within tolerance.

After hours

Night staff describe a second programme on 82.6 after midnight: disco records with far too much bass, hold music played somewhere less comfortable, and short poems read over the top. Haiku about overtime, annual leave, and meetings with HR.

Internal memos call these unauthorised transmissions and attribute them to a group called Corporate Haiku. Holders of company organisers were told not to hum, tap or nod along.

Why it matters

If Node 42 is right, and listener response feeds a profile, then the after-hours broadcasts weren’t just a prank. They were the only programme on the frequency that wasn’t listening back.

Someone has put the Corporate Haiku recordings back online at corporatehaiku.com. I’ve listened to the excerpts. The bass is, as advertised, too much.
