Welcome to Roux102 — Ruston’s home for Generation X radio, where the music is real, the voices are local, and the community comes first. Locally owned and operated by proud Ruston residents, Omega Entertainment, Roux102 is all about the soundtrack of Generation X — the anthems that defined the ’80s and ’90s, from grunge and alternative to classic hip-hop, new wave, and rock. And we throw in some 70’s and 2000’s, just because we can – and it’s fun to mix it up. If it played on your Walkman, your car stereo, or your college radio, you’ll find it here. Whether you’re a Tech or NLU alum, a lifelong local, or just passing through, Roux102 brings you the music you grew up with and the community you still call home. Live. Local. Loud. That’s Roux102.
