You'd be better off with web radio,there's nothing decent on the AM/FM airwaves these days,there was 'Tonic fm' (is that still airing?) but it was predominantly electro-housey stuff rather than covering a broad spectrum of 'dance music' genres.

trance & house are the dominant genres on tonik, the lad who owns it is mad into trance. techno gets a look in too, but not as much as the other two. i asked him if he'd ever have a dnb show, and he was all for the idea, sound guy, did a course in music with him.

I can tell ya they played nothing but recent/up to date electro housey type stuff during work hours (8am-4.30am) as I was tuned in to it most days on my dog n bone throughout the day.....it was either that or listen to the shyte on FM104

but then again me not knowing one genre from the next maybe it was all trance & techno

Well I wouldn't say 'worked' but I was employed in a place years ago (way back in 1990) with almost everybody from my estate,we packed a few pallets from 8pm till midnight (or a little after) then mostly played poker and on occasion had 'parties' .......but that's a whole other story.

But,unlike nowadays,back then the radio was full of 'rave' stations and we didn't have to wait until 10pm on Fridays

ah good aul sunset 107fm, they were the days alright. i'm not the biggest house fan these days myself (some of it's good tho) and haven't been a fan of trance since the late 90's, so i rarely listen to fm radio myself these days, except for the odd bit of dnb i catch from time to time.
internet radio is definitely alot better imo, more choice than ya get on the likes from fm here. that said, most of the people i know are into house & techno, so i would imagine that tonik actually cater for the majority (could be wrong) of the younger crowd, who are on the club scene these days.

Play fm 93.2 i think, only in parts of dublin. its online too as far as i know. www.playfmdublin.com some great shows on it. No chart no trance no hard dance is their slogan!
