Pulse 87 is going off the air in a week!
 

Anyone who listens to techno/dance and lives in the tri-state area (close to NYC at least) has heard of Pulse 87 (I hope). If you live there and haven't yet heard it it's 87.7fm. It's a godsend to people like me that never wanted to listen to the radio before this station came along, now I never turn it off!

The reason for the thread is that this small radio station is getting hit hard by the economy and only has a week left on the air if they don't get enough donations to pay their bills. I just donated and I hope some other people can do the same. Hopefully we can save the only free dance station!

For more info go to:

ps. No I don't work for/am no way affiliated with the station. I'm just a person who loves techno/dance and is trying to make a difference for the station I've grown to love.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Please tell me this is just a sick joke

nope unfortunately not:shakes head:

I dont have money to donate but they better get enough to stay on air :mad:

Yeah I don't have much to donate either (i'm a college student), but I gave them $10 just to help them out a little. After all they are constantly on my radio so worse comes to worst it's the least I can do to say thanks :(

This sucks :mad:

Not a NY resident but I'm listening to the stream now.....good music! I hope you get to keep your station.

Yeah anyone who can't get this station but loves dance/techno, I suggest you stream it from pulse87.com (if their streaming is still up i'm not sure), because this station is awesome!

Hey nightfire,

I was listening to Pulse 87 from work and the DJ just said all volunteers who gave money will be getting their money back in full and the station is going to do everything in their power to stay on the air! Good news! I've become a fan in under 24 hours...thanks for posting this. :tup:

Was just listening to the station and one of them said that the station was saved.

Great news! I just heard that at lunch as well. Good to know we'll still have some great music left on the radio :tup:

edit: just went on their website and it said that they got such a good response their creditors decided to give them extensions on paying them back and to do so by "more conventional means" aka not a fundraiser. So they aren't in the clear yet but at least it's going in the right direction! Hopefully the money will flow

WTF?!
I never heard this!
They do play some old weird **** sometimes though or things that don't even relate to trance or house, etc...
Sucks cause it's the only trance station on my fm...

Yeah I do agree they do play some bad stuff every once in a while but for the most part it's by far the best station on the radio and you can't beat their mixes

Yeah, once in awhile I'd hear Deadmau5 or some Armin Mash up.
ONCE IN A WHILE... They need to play some Sean Tyas, Cosmic Gate, Tiesto, Benny, Ferry, A&B, etc...
Anyone going to Electric Zoo on sept.5 and 6th?
