Will be competing again, against Q102!
Its funny how the HD2 plays Alternative from the top of every hour until 15 minutes past and uses the term ALT 965. Then slides in to Acoustic sunrise until the top of the hour and uses the term Todays Hits 965 HD1. Seems like they are just keeping the HD2 on life support, they could sound awesome if they went full blown Alternative without the chicken alternative and the constant chatter ala 1045.
I heard it quite often on 1045 HD2 also ALT 1045 HD2 but then followed it up with a Metallica, GnR and Disturbed tracks, agreed its not in-house. If my memory serves me correct, I recall in the last years of Y100, they were throwing in Metallica and Ozzy which I never quite understood...
Nah. Not a direct competition with Q102. They gave up on that when they dumped Amp. This seems more like a format shift than a flip. Hotter sound/presentation, increase spins on currents. It's more Hot AC than Mainstream AC now. Subtle, and I don't know if it will make much of a difference.
It's not that subtle. It is a rhythmic hot AC playing tons of songs regular hot ACs would never touch (FOUR Drake songs for example). It's currents are CHR. It's recurrents are CHR (DJ Khalid - Wild Thoughts and Drake - One Dance are in the mix, and played every six or so hours). It's golds are stylistically CHR driven, but are played more often than on true CHRs. Only 1 90s song has been played so far. It's top currents are played 85x weekly -- Lights Down Low, Finesse, Perfect and Havana. WSTW is still the only hot AC receivable in Philly.
Not a rhythmic hot AC. Adult top 40, yes. (And by the way, I've heard Wild Thoughts and One Dance on hot ACs when they were currents. That was the extreme limits on how hard they got rhythmically [sic].)
Exactly. And how many times is a station in the market going to take a run at it?Kind of a small hole Mix left.
Seemingly quite a few.Exactly. And how many times is a station in the market going to take a run at it?

What about 101.1 More FM?
It's a rhythmic leaning mainstream AC, playing some more rhythmic stuff like "Motownphilly", "Can't Feel My Face", "Titanium", "Tearin' Up My Heart" and "Stressed Out" that may sound out of place on a more conventional mainstream AC.
