Dance mixshows on non CHR formats

D

Here in Philly, Hot AC WISX "Mix 106.1" has four (yes, four) mixshows on the weekends. Friday Night Live from 8-Midnight, the nationally syndicated Remix Top 30 (this one really doesn't fit the format, but I'll take it!) from Midnight-3AM, Saturdays from 8-1AM, and Sunday Night Live from 8-Midnight. They are more or less a carryover from when WISX was a Rhythmic AC, however the Friday night mixshow was actually added right before they morphed into Hot AC. Arguably, the mixshows also sound better with the station now as a Hot AC (more current, and some good electro sounding top 40 remixes). They get more edgy during the later hours, sounding basically a CHR that only plays remixes sprinkled in with some real dance. I think what makes this more strange is that Mix's sister station is CHR "Q102" which has no mixshows at all. As I'm listening now, they are playing an electro-sounding remix to Usher's "More"... on a Hot AC with a CHR in the same cluster. Gotta wonder CC's wisdom here.

Any other formats/stations that you wouldn't typically associate with dance having a dance-oriented mixshow?
 
That went away so long ago. I wanna say 2001 was the last time The Edge featured that mix. I don't believe Edge ever did it after moving to 103.9

Perhaps this is a shameless plug, but I think it relates to this subject of "Dance shows on other radio formats"

I was given the green light to do 2 hours of Pure House tonite at Midnite (MST) on 90.7 KVIT in Az. You can stream it right after my early mix (9P-Mid) here: http://907goldmine.com/kvit-90-7-the-goldmine/
 
Or listen to lots and lots of DJ Perry mixes and lots more Dance including but not limited to Hard House Electro house Dubstep Oldschool Trance Progressive,, the list goes on,,,,, Pulse 107.. pardon me on the links,, Its a new server and im too lazy to look it up right now,, find us in the shoutcast pages.
 
Austin's "Independent. Local. Alternative" station, 101x (KROX-FM) has a mixshow on Saturday nights from 10P-12A.

In San Antonio, we have dance mixshows on our Spanish CHR - La Kalle 95.1 and on San Antonio College-operated KSYM 90.1 FM.
