Dude, The classical station at the time sucked, I hate classical music, Its a good thing they changed the format cause a dance music station is more important then some stupid classical station.

yeah, i saw the commerical for it when i was down in miami, but i left the day before new years eve...so didn't get to find out what it was......

that's awesome, i know orlando has 95.3 party and they play a lot of trance stuff, but other stuff too.......and i thought that was kind of weird to see orlando with a station and not miami.....

anywho....any reviews on the station so far???

In the radio station department, orlando kicks our ass.... Orlando has at least 2 (if not 3) pirate trance stations, one of which ONLY plays livesets from '99 .... i would LOVE to have that shit down here...

after listening to this new 93.1 station all day, i report that its marginally better than Power Ninety-sux! Granted, there are like no commercials, but they loop the same 2-hours of songs ALL DAY! (i listened all day to find this out)...

here are the songs they play:
Ian van Dahl - Castles in the Sky
Mix Factory - Take Me Away
Kosheen - Hide U (orig. D&B mix)
Alice DeeJay - Better Off Alone
Ayla - Ayla Pt. 2
Amber - Sexual
Razor & Guido - (that one song.... forget the name)
Darude - Sandstorm
Darude - Feel the Beat
and a BUNCH of freestylw during the day!!

...and others... its basically like Cafe Iguana music....
granted, at least there's no hip-hop, and its a step in the right direction... but they also throw in some freestyle, which SUCKS.... and they play these same, stale, some of which are 2-year old songs over and over and over all day on a 2-hour rotation... i heard all those songs played 5 times today....

but again, step in the right direction... we need to send them eMails recommending modern, euro-trance... and techno.. (right now they play NO techno... i don't know who said they play techno!)

... tonight i was lucky enough to catch System F's "out of the blue" and PvD's "We are Alive"... but that was about as european as it gets, folks!

but we need to send them eMails, to guide them! remember dance music is not the same thing as trance music!

But, i'm not concerned in the slightest... I'm starting up my own radio station next week... all the parts should be in then.... its only a 1-watt transmitter, but with the dipole antenna i should get a 10 mile range... so basically all throughout fort lauderdale...

i will be broadcasting trance, and only trance... (maybe have a techno hour on weekend-nights....) .... i will basically loop all the good livesets (and some songs) 24 hours a day. I don't know what the frequency will be yet... i have to test & tune when i get the equipment. IF all goes well, and the FCC doesn't give me shit, i may "upp" the boost on the transmitter and be able to cover miami & the palm beaches...

i will keep you guys updated... finally a real TA radio, eh?

what would be nice is if they could broadcast some livesets from when pvd and people come down and play in the clubs....and broadcast ultra?

abt, how much did all that equipment cost ya? i was intrested in doing something similar, but up here at school

The Station is very nice.
This morning I heard 'We Are Alive (Breathless Remix)' and many other good tracks...

Finally we got something worth the listen!

Many Greetings,

f0x

I agree with all of you. It was about time that miami got an all Dance Station. Power 96 needs to realize that miami is not all Hip-Hop. Also, ive been to tampa and Orlando quite a bit and was amazed of the good quality radio stations that are located their. I kinda expected miami, a major city, to have the top stations....
I enjoy having 93.1 on my dial and am confident that it will improve with time. They will acquire more/better songs....

I luv the live broadcast idea along with the ultra one!!!
