Based on what I have seen on R&R's Hot AC chart throughout the 90s, Hot AC started very soft, then around 1996 or so started going more toward an alternative-style sound, with still a few softer AC titles, but AC by then was more uptempo than before. What exactly, in your opinion, caused the sudden change in the Hot AC format in the mid to late 90s? Any insight on this?
