D.C., You're Getting A Dance Station!

This 87.7 has a solid signal in the NW and SW parts, and can be heard well within the Beltway, even halfway to Baltimore. To the south, there's interference from the channel 6 in Richmond.
This is awesome, and worth a special trip to Washington DC just so I can hear Pulse 87 in the nation's capital!
So there will now be 4 Pulse 87's. At some point, I think every LPTV station on channel 6 will become a Pulse 87, even the one in Alaska.
I want to see Pulse above 92.1 someday.
 
Awesome news.

I am spreading the news to various of forums! Lets hope they get the programming right. It is great time to do so since the new age of electro hip house genre has been hitting the charts for the last couple months. Not only that, house music is making huge come back with the mainstream media! I hope they can play some good trance too in after hours!

Well, to give you an idea regarding Pulse, hear them by clicking the "Listen Live" button.... http://www.pulse87.com

I would think for Washington, D.C., there would be some soulful house influence in there somehow, which would make sense for the region. Definitely more on the Deborah Cox, Ultra Nate, Crystal Waters vibe.

Ultra Nate and Crystal Waters are more of Baltimore influence. Yes you are right however, you have to mix with a little bit of BT, Deep Dish and up and coming producers from DC as well. The people from other boards are going crazy for the news, let me show you one

Before you all go further nuts on that forum (WOW!!! I've never seen such excitement! :) ) do realize that, if this station is going to sound like Pulse up here, the station also touches on CHR (a little sprinkling of R&B and pop) and the recurrents. It may not be as hardcore as one would anticipate but it is certainly a very refreshing sound that DC will enjoy.

I am HOPING this station has it's own identity and not just simulcast from NYC. Because certain tracks that are played in NYC won't necessarily work in D.C.
