Power 96 also plays reggaeton (I'm not sure about the other Hip hop stations)
Rock Stations:
Big 105
"Rock" 93.1
Pop stations:
Y-100
97.3 The Coast (more like "light pop")
Why are there three Hip Hop stations and five Spanish stations?
That doesn't make sense.
Remember 103.5? It used to play disco. Did they really need to replace it for yet another Hip Hop station?
And now, they had to replace Zeta for yet another Spanish station. And because of that, they had to make up for the lack of a rock station, so they took away Party. (Of course they wouldn't dare take away from the stations that are already duplicated).
At least this new rock station at least plays some recent rock music, unlike Zeta which didn't play anything that wasn't early-90's grunge.
Though I heard one Freestyle song and two Spanish dance songs on Mega 94.9.
I remember that five or six years ago, before Party, some stations gave dance music late at night on the weekends. They would be "live" at a club, and just have dance music playing. I think it was on Y-100 and Power 96. I don't know if they still do it though.
I think it's really tragic how South Florida, a place probably best known for being a dance and club capital, doesn't even have a dance station. I think that these people that are in charge don't care about their consumers and they just rather neglect us. Anyone in Miami will tell you that Party 93.1 was one of the most popular stations along with Power 96 and Y-100. Everyone had their radio tuned to it or they had a sticker on their car. Not to mention all of the events Party did. The majority of people I knew listened to Party 93.1. Why would they cancel such a popular station?
Well, at least there is still 90.5 WVUM, which plays non-mainstream music. You guys should check it out. They're always playing different types of interesting and underground music. They play a lot of electronic music, which is dance's sister genre. That is the only radio station left that I ever listen to. And I'm getting tired of listening to my CDs over and over again.
