La Que Buena KRTX??????

Yes I agree with Pelochas, The music they play in Estereo Latino is more of a Tejano/norteno mix.  With a variety of spanish music.  Its like having mix 96.5 in spanish.  La Que Buena played more of what we call in spanish Chuntaro music.  Chuntaro would be kind of like those mexican Cowboys.

No, KLTN started to add more of a Banda taste to their playlist. They have been doing so for a while now. They have left their 99.9% Norteno sound that they had back then. It is also not called Chuntaro music, it's called Banda and Corridos.

david, the comment about houston doesnt need two regional mexican formats, there no way you going to convince me that the que buena format is the same as estereo.

It's not about similarity of music... it's about marketability of the stations as ad media. Two full regional stations is one too many for one company, since advertisers want to expand format coverage and reach. It is much better to have multiple formats that advertisers recognize as having different audiences.

i know estereo is know playing the que buena music more due to music tests but i and so do a lot of us simply turn off or play cds when the que buena music starts.

A music test simply defines what the core listener wants to hear. Obvously, each person has a different set of musical values, and will never be 100% satisfied by the music alone... that is why stations have personalities and other things that distinguish them from juke boxes with antennas on them.

even at clubs, you have your tierra calienta music than will clean the floor off when norteno was playing, even worse, at this club they have seperate clubs in it to separate the norteno and tierra caliente because its just not going to mix, its water and oil.

A club is not a radio station... they dim the lights, serve booze, and there are, hopefully, viejas. A club is a mind altering experience, which is why club remotes on the radio essentially have zero audience, since the radio listeners are not in that totally different world of booze and babes.
