:giveup

$$

apparently research shows that

a.)it dosnt have a broad enuff appeal

and

b.)of the people that would listen, its not a demographic that advertisers want to go after.

Party 105.3 is as close as you're gonna get, and you have to live out here in Suffolk county or parts of CT to get it.
Little harder than KTU was, but still comercial stuff. Theo's IN The Mixx show on Fridays is awesome though!! Kinda like an Essentials show.

[nycxtcgirl69]

ktu changed their format recently, they play absolute shit now. well actually they played absolute shit before too.

they need to get it together and come with the real dance music please

yea all of their Djs are wack

[just b u]

I always complain about this but i also realize what bernie c said, it's all about the money. Money is made when u play the mainstream shit like hip hop, r&B, alternative, pop and so on.

KTU sucks ass, it gets good only on friday early morning or sat early mornings, especially when roger sanchez is onnn!!!

A girl can only hope!!!

[MashkaNYC]

ye but there's ALOT of radio stations from all over the world that do that, who cares about 105? lollll i mean, if ur by a computer then u have other options, thats not a big deal at all

[Jame$ Money]

Newsflash : Not enuff people care !

[ufonyc01]

I dont even listen to the radio, the closest thing to me listening to a radio station is Thursdays from 2:00pm - 4:00pm Armin Van Buuren - ASOT (show) on www.di.fm

[The Maestro]

house is the international music,most palyed music in the world,

you sure bout that?

[berniec]

just would be nice to listen to a LOCAL dance station with a little local influence on its programming rather then something from halfway across the globe ya kno?

7-8 Years ago the station was really good. Always playing house. I havent listened in awhile, but I remember it turning over to the dark side (hip-hop)

[RICKY]

Hot 97 on Frdiay and Saturday Nights used to play house.......................Glenn Frischer.........Thats was a long time ago

[DINO nYc]

Newsflash : Not enuff people care !

That's partly because the house music these crappy dj's play on the radio is usually 99% horrendous. House music itself is nowhere near dead... look at the damn clubs, they're jammed every weekend.

[James Maxx]

It won't work the demographic is not big enough and not too favorable to the public especially when half of this demographic is gay.

KTU is good at certain times. You don't wanna listen to that station on Sunday your gonna feel like you stepped into Studio 54.

5 years ago there were like 4x as many big rooms int he city and all had block long lines on friday and sat nites, its nowhere near that level anymore

[Sergeant Chaosss]

yes I remember that I used to run home and listen sometimes haha.

[Speedbird1]

I know right?? What's up with that? NYC should not only have 1 station but at least 3 or something especially late night.. Been to many countries including my home country Greece, and they have stations where house music is not so special or popular

[mikey77]

yeah, they play alot of house late nights on friday and saturday.

[confidential]

102.7 used to like 6 years ago

now its all 70's and 80's jams and im not complaining :boop

u can catch some nice house on 102.7 late night saturdays...ive heard some nasty beats on there the last time i listened in...

[drumaboy]

5 years ago there were like 4x as many big rooms int he city and all had block long lines on friday and sat nites, its nowhere near that level anymore

Ten years ago there were just as many big rooms, with the same amount of traffic, and almost close to ZERO house music played on the radio.:shuffle

[MichelangeloWHO]

Not true... way more spots these days.

The long line thing was more "fashionable" 5 years ago..



Why no House station?

Radio stations are owned by HUGE corporations that either own or are in bed w/ event/concert organizers & the big music labels.

- House music WHEN IT DONE RIGHT does not have the market power that an individual in a school girl outfit singing "baby... one more time"

- House music is made my producers whom are usually introvert to begin..not natural entertainers.

- House music is LONG .. means less spots to stick in commercials & the FLOW is what makes house music so magical
more later
