Guest Davenavarro10 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 What do you guys think of this radio station? Do you guys enjoy it and tune in, or do you want to smash your radio everytime you come across it? Does 93.1 actually play the kind of music that you Junkies listen to? I think the station is a good idea, but I think that it is too mainstream, they need more variety. I have also noticed that lately (in the past year or so) they have been playing alot of retro and freestyle. Does 93.1 make you want to party or puke?

Guest pod Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 93.1 has to keep it "mainstream" to make money. Left of center material doesn't profit. It is a good thing since it gets people into the scene overall. If you want your 'underground' fix, just tune into a stream online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rollyp66 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 I don't really listen to the radio anymore unless one of my people are spinning. Mostly listen to online streams and CD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LeVeL Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 its kool...I like it the way it is. I dont want to hear the underground shit overplayed on a radio station. Look at Hip Hop for example..there is no such thing as underground in that genre...everything you hear in a station you can listen in a club.Thats why I like EDM because the music is always fresh 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically underground means unsigned in the Rap game.And basically underground hip hop is not bumped at the clubs like the way you see EDM gets bumped in the club but when you tune into a station to listen it sounds nothing like it.

Guest Davenavarro10 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Pod I know that they have to keep it mainstream to make money, but how many times can a person hear Better off alone before they lose their mind? I think that most of the stuff they play could be considered dance pop. How about playing Tricky every once in a while, or maybe the Prodigy (who are pretty mainstream but get no radio airplay)? Variety is the spice of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pod Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Tell that to the focus groups. They determine the playlists pretty much. 93.1 isn't geared towards people like you, it is geared towards the 95 percent of the population that doesn't go out regularly. If you wanna hear Prodigy and Tricky so bad, play a CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 That is true as well, what Roly said. You can't just play whatever on the air. Gotta worry about royalties and charting and scheduling and all that. 93.1 plays dance music, but they are still a commercial radio station.

Guest Davenavarro10 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 If I'm not mistaken, they still play individual songs don't they? I doubt that they always have an actual dj spinning records at the station. I think that they probably operate in the same way that other radio stations do.

Guest JMT Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 i was getting the 93.1 surveys for a while. i think they stopped sending them when i they saw i went about 4 straight months and only gave an approval on maybe 1 or 2 tracks each time.

Guest pod Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 More often than not, the station is run off of a computer system. Live DJs are a rarity. Nonetheless, each song played on the station has to be cleared for broadcast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
