MetroDance has just shut down

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

This sucks - probably boils down to selling advertising slots - maybe EDM doesn't get the listeners and generate revenue. Hence Kiss100 fucking around with Diggers friday night slot in 2004.

We need to wait till everything is sorted..Hernan knows we are here to support him but Metrodance was a terristric radio with lots of listeners so we need to be patient and see what happens in the next weeks.

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

youre right, i had it backwards

Black is every color except black.

Also, just because metro dance is no more, doesn't mean that we will never hear these two again..They will more than likely start new shows with a diff name..It's not a big deal.

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

He's damn popular. He is probably in talks with another station. People shouldn't worry about his show.

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

if its set up like digweed he probably already has prerecorded a handfull of shows...too bad he cant release them on here temporarily

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

Shit. I visited metro951.com last Thursday to look for Martin's show. It redirected me to this new crappy blue corporate website. I tried several times and was like, hey this is not right. Then got a bad feeling. So it is true and official.

Don't fret too much. I have seen this kind of thing happen before in major cities where a super dedicated cult following loses its beloved station. Usually, 6-8 months go by and boom, one of the other stations has a format switch and plays REM's "It's the end of the world as we know it" all weekend for 72 hours straight. From what I gather, Buenos Aires is one happening place with hoardes of clubgoers. Look at all the EDM forums there are just for Argentina. And they all have shitloads of members. With all that talent down there, this just cannot stand.

Are any of these stations dedicated to edm?
X4 Radio 104.3 FM Buenos Aires
Caseros Radio 91.5 FM, Argentina or
Radio 99

This is a setback, but it is only temporary.

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

Say, check out this site. They are playing some groovy house right now.


http://kskradio.net/ 101.9FM

Maybe its a pop/rock station that plays EDM late night. That's my guess.
My Spanish is kinda rusty so I am not really sure what the site says.

Boscarino apparently hosts a weekly radio show there. I took this excerpt from his website.

[new radio show - digital blackout (dec 22):
this saturday im starting a new radio show on a buenos aires air fm called ksk radio. the show's name is digital blackout and will be on every saturday at 9 pm (argentina time) and i will be co-hosting it with nicholas van orton, facu cruz and bsas deep. we will be taking turns to play a mix every week. you can tune in online on ksk radio's website]

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

Was listening to Deep Mariano and Cattaneo the other day and just thinking to myself, how the hell do these guys manage to play the music they do on their radio shows, and the stations keep them on, cos we will never ever get that over here.

Damn.

Re: MetroDance has just shut down

They do wonderful music This little enforced break has let me go back and replay some of the shows and it's like having a whole new lot of great music.
