z103.5's Richard Correll -- come on, guy!! jeeze.

We're setting up for a trade show in Toronto, so I borrowed my father's big ford van in order to transport all the gear down from our office up north. The van doesn't have a CD player or a tape deck--just a radio receiver, so rather than hear all the creaks and groans of the equipment in the back, I flipped on the radio to see what is up in Top 40 world. Well, z103.5 is all a-stir about David Guetta. Don't get me wrong, I love the man's vocal house. His global gathering set is quite good and has lots of energy. Apparently he's spinning at the Century Room November 13th, so the Z is doing the ol' give-away. So last night, after the top 9 at 9, a woman comes on the phone, does her thing, and wins the tickets. Richard Correll congratulates her, and she's like "I love David Guetta!" and he responds

"I know--we need to bring more house DJs to Toronto!"

WTF.

Does he not know that Toronto is one of the few places on this planet earth with a thriving house music scene, with some of the most talented and driven house music producers in North America?

I ranted all night to lea about this. Come on, Richard Correll. You're a Toronto Radio Announcer. Get a clue!

phone in...act all nice to the producers, and let it rip when you get on the air

Z103 is such a joke. I'll assist you in anyway with this prank call.

lemme know the approx day and time you're gonna do this, I must record this!! lol

damn that must be really expensive, I hope it comes with the pussy magnet

what the fuck are you doing listening to z103 in the first place?
you're cut off.

DJ Danny D is an asshole The Hammer is an even bigger asshole - personal experience. They like to keep to themselves and their teckno beatz.

The guy calls himself THE PEOPLE'S DJ, can you smell what the DJ is playing? CHEESE!!

Tiesto? lol

Who even really cares anyways? These "103.5 sucks!" conversations are getting stale. Yes, we're so 1337 because we're part of a scene. Wooooo.

Eventually, "our" music, and "our" lifestyle WILL be part of the mainstream, and that's when you'll hear more knowledgeable people on the radio. But for now, it's pointless. What's that saying? Do not cast thy pearls before swine? Yeah.

Whats with all the hate? Dance music isn't an exclusive club

i'm assuming its mostly the ignorance of a 'we need more house djs in toronto' when we are FLOODED with house djs. Regardless of mainstream radio or not, you'd think someone who gets paid to do this for a living could at least do an ounce of research.

Who me? There is no hate. I'm just saying that these threads about "Whyyyy won't z103 recognize my musicccc?" are getting old. The fact is, it's not fully accepted into mainstream culture yet..and until it is, we'll continue to have jackasses as announcers.

agreed. considering the house scene in toronto is bigger than the trance scene and eurodance and freestyle scene.
