Would you push for dance music on Top 40 radio in the US?

There are very few stations out there that are dance music formatted in the US. What I mean by dance is house, trance, electro, club oriented tracks.

Right now, my group, the Metro New York Dance Radio Coalition is pushing for Edun – Put Them Up for radio airplay. You could see the video for it on http://www.myspace.com/nydanceradio (DISCLAIMER : No one is paying me to do this). Would you push your local radio stations to play dance music (along with R&B, hip-hop, pop and alternative) on Top 40/CHR radio?

Thanks,

Cool,

We’ve lost our dance station…WKTU, in New York City (turning Rhythmic A/C). That’s why we are gunning for dance songs on WHTZ (Z-100). And as long as people such as yourself make demands, maybe change can happen for the better :)

The best way to try and get a song played on the radio is to contact their Music or Program Director. Each station usually has a website where you can find the name and address of this person. Here’s the contact information for Z100 New York:

WHTZ Music Director: Romeo
P.O. Box 7100
New York, NY 10150
