One Day Later, 96.9 Turns into Electronic Dance Station

After just one day on the air, Power 96.9 is no more, according to the Greater Boston Media Group.

  If you tuned in to 96.9 Thursday morning and were hoping to hear either news talk radio or hip hop, you're out of luck. After shutting down NewsTalk 96.9 on Wednesday in favor of Power 96.9, a new hip hop and R&B channel, 96.9 morphed again today into an eletronic dance station, Nova. "The transformation of  the new 96.9 FM continued today at 10 a.m. with the launch of NOVA, Boston’s new electronic dance music (EDM) station," announced Greater Media Boston in a statement. "Plan on more surprises to be unveiled throughout the week," the statement said. Will this change stick around? Or is it just some kind of publicity stunt? Tell us in the comments.

With at least two dozen independent college and community radio stations in the greater Boston area that are hosted by living and thinking creative human beings, we do not need to listen to robo corporate radio playing the same songs over and over.. For a listing, go to "Community and Independent College Radio" - https://www.facebook.com/groups/148693875252110/ - then access the "files" area.   more ›
