xxgrooveericxx Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 My option is not on the poll: I don't listen to 93.1I gave up LONG time ago. Only time I listen is during live broadcast with Markus, Edgar V, Oscar G and Global DJ Broadcast. Besides that, I'll pass....Thank goodness for CD's/MP3's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treepwood728 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 well the station plays exactly what it says it does. Dance Music.In my opinion Dance and Trance/House/Breaks/Techno so on and so forth are in a completely different category. Dance music to me and to a lot of people that i've spoken to is top 40 stuff. Stuff that will be found on the radio, not at clubs. So yeah, i agree the station sucks, but it does what it's programmed to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmatas2277 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 if another station gets created that plays electronic music...with diff. musical formats on diff. days...and diff. shows..with quality techno/house/trance/breaks/jungle/d&b it will BLOW 93.1 out of the water...i think they should make another dance station to compete with 93.1...there are tons of local djs that can have shows...imagine the oscar g white label show or since he just moved down here the Danny Tenaglia show...

sobeton Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 while not being a fan of 93.1 daily programming. I do respect what they have accomplished in the market. they are a commercial dance music station, and have excelled in their market. in particular I do enjoy several of their programs including Nocturnal Sessions with Edgar V, Late Night Laboratory with George Alvarado, Global DJ Broadcast with Markus Schulz, Paul Oakenfold Presents, and their live broadcast which have included Oscar G, Roland, Markus Schulz, DJ Icey,etc. they also deserve props IMO for wining Best Radio Station at Dancestar. the bottom line is they are not programming for the CP minority, they are programming for the majority. to which they have been quite successful. I wish them continued success, and hope at some point they enhance their daily programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobe2003 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Actually I think this is a decent thread since Buster is on here quite a bit . . . I am not a fan of the daily 93.1 schedule - the night time live gigs are much better . . . Buster - are you the program director??? I bet a majority of your listeners would like you to change the format a bit. I understand that you have to have "commercial" stuff during the day but I bet a majority of your listeners are getting sick of the same songs over and over and over . . . .

BUT DAMN !! please play different cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quest4sunrise Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 I think they are good on weekend nights with Nocturnal Sessions and Global DJ Broadcast. I'd like to hear more stuff like that, but I understand that they need to play that awful cheesy shit during the day for mainstream folks they are looking to attract. I wouldn't mind hearing an MC either as long as they were competant. I don't really care for Pete Tong as a DJ, but he's an excellent MC. Something like that could spice things up... just not Buster. I respect Buster's intentions about bringing good press to dance music, but he is just tooooo yappy on the radio. We gotta keep one thing in perspective, this is the only pure dance channel in the mass media of this country, so it takes time to develop through trial and error. Would I prefer ID&T or Radio One over Party 93.1? Sure, but I have faith Party will continue to experiment and grow into something we ALL can enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcarlosf Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 how many of us on this board could put 93.1 out of business music wise? how about that as a poll i stopped listening to 93.1 in the first month that they started...but as morillo stated, there is something good about this and that is that they have won over a new audience and have given the people the chance to learn about the scene and its music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulvandykism Posted March 23 Author Report Share Posted March 23 I agree with most of you, I only listen to 93.1 during the night. During the day is so wack. Let me know if I am wrong but I say about 70% - 80% of electronic music has no vocals. Yet, almost, or should i say all, songs played in party 93.1 have vocals, some good, some wack.Ok they say they are Dance Music Channel but they get involved in a lot of Electronic Music Events and Clubs.I mean, Can they just play good trance and techno and house like the Europeans stations do. there is enough music to play a different song every minute, every hour, every day, for a whole month. why do they have to play the same song 5 times every 5 hours.

Buster is not the program director. Phil Michaels is the program director.Even tho I don't listen to 93.1 during daytime hours, at least they have the mix shows late night and on weekends and some live broadcasts. As for them playing songs over and over....every radio station does that with their playlist. It's corporate radio running the airwaves. Someone once told me that they run multipe studies on listening habits and so on. They have to play a track over a certain number of times before they consider it to be "played out". Just because you heard it 1000 times, someone out there still hasn't even heard of it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patois Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Originally posted by mrmatas2277 techno/house/trance/breaks/jungle/d&b I hope to eventually learn what all of these different musical denominations mean, that mrmatas2277 has mentioned.

CHRles Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 The difference between a typical House sound versus Trance, versus Breaks, versus D N B. Let's see if I can explain it through the use of Florida based DJs/producers. Look for CDs/sets by the following for definitions:House = Murk (Oscar G. + Ralph Falcon), Robbie Rivera, Jask, Q-Burns Abstract MessageTrance = George Acosta, Edgar V., Kimball Collins (well he's originally from florida), early Rabbit In The Moon stuff Markus Schulz, Andy Hughes, Noel Sanger, DJ Three = Progressive HouseDJ Icey, Merlyn, Jackal & Hyde, Baby Anne, Sharaz = BreakbeatsAK1200, Jeffee = D N BStryke = Techno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more you are surrounded by EDM (Electronic Dance Music) the more you will be able to differentiate between styles. Once you have crossed that evolutional step you will then be knowledgeable enough to be able to differentiate between "basic" sounds and "Intelligent" sounds. Once you have crossed that evolutional step you will then be knowledgeable enough to know that you don't need vocals to appreciate a well layered track. The layered beats will then replace the craving that you once had for vocals and then and only then will you be considered a member of the SOTU (Sounds Of The Underground) crew.At this stage you will have no need to tune into any radio station due to the mere fact that the sounds you crave can only be found in the same place that helped you evolve.......THE UNDERGROUNDhe he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
