San Antonio Dance Radio

|

Since the demise of the old 106.7 Jamz, a 24 hour dance station owned by Cox Radio, people have been complaining that San Antonio lacks a true dance radio station.  While the genre does well in certain regions, most radio groups are reluctant to experiment with the genre because it notorious for being a hard sell when it comes to advertisers.

However that has not stopped a group of dedicated dance music fans from bringing the music to the people.

Introducing San Antonio Dance Radio.  SA Dance Radio is an internet based radio station that is gaining popularity in the Alamo City.

Internet stations overall are quickly becoming the new craze in the radio industry thanks to the simplicity and wide variety of access these stations provide.  Not only are these radio stations not limited to a specific region like a traditional FM, they can be accessed from anywhere in the world.

The station launched in February 2011 and was created by Winston Potgieter, an immigrant from South Africa who came to San Antonio in 1985.

“I have always enjoyed positive, uplifting, motivating music, so my preference has always been dance music.” said Potgieter. “I believe when we listen to positive music it improves our mood and well being. Many of us know that listening to uplifting music can help us make it through a rough day, or motivate us to keep going.”

The radio station can be streamed in several ways including the official web page, the TuneIn radio app, winamp, plus more.

Finally there is a local radio station that tailors to the dance music fan.
