It really is sad that there's no Dance station in Tel Aviv - the Dance capital of the Middle East, or at least a Top 40 station that plays the international hits 24/7 that young people listen to.
Amman, Jordan has THREE Top 40 stations, and two of these stations feature Dance shows where even some Israeli House and Progressive Trance artists are featured:

Even the government-owned Pop station, Radio Jordan, is Top 40 most hours of the day

Cairo, Egypt has Nile FM:

Morocco has Hit Radio

Lebanon has some of the oldest Top 40 stations in Asia - Radio 1 started in 1983. Mix FM is very Dance friendly and features Dance shows by the likes of Pete Tong and Armin. There's also a Radio Energy, like the NRJ station back in France:

Istanbul, Turkey has TWO underground Dance stations:

All of the big cities in Turkey have the following Top 40 stations, and they all play a LOT of commercial Dance and House 24/7:

And what does Tel Aviv have??? A bunch of radio stations that are all usually playing the best of the 70s, 80s, 90s, and today all day long. No Top 40 station, no Dance station, no Alternative Rock station, no Hip Hop station, no Oldies stations for Adults, etc.
