 It's WEDX Evolution 101.7. It started on Dec 20 but the biggest surprise is that its an Electronic Dance Music Station. Pete Tong is part of the station. Check out their website: www.evolution1017.com/main.htmlI like how it sounds and seems like Clears Channel is realizing finally how big EDM is in the U.S. but I ain't getting my high hopes up just yet knowing how Clears Channel is. They play Paul van Dyk, Markus Schulz, Calvin Harris, Zedd, Swedish House Mafia, Morgan Page, Ferry Corsten, Kaskade, Skrillex, Gareth Emery and a whole lot more. |

Harbor 101.7, "Classic Hits" format, only lasted a good 5 months. I'll check this out. Maybe this time, the format will stick.

The January ratings are in: First 24/7 EDM-FM attracts weekend warriors The increasing popularity of Electronic Dance Music has a handful of modern rock and rhythmic CHR stations devoting a weekend specialty show to the genre. Weekends are also the strongest initial daypart for radio’s first 24/7 EDM station. Clear Channel’s “Evolution 101.7” WEDX, Boston posted a 2.4 among Men 18-34 on weekends, compared to a 1.8 on weekdays.
But Boston’s not exactly dancing in the streets yet for WEDX. In the station’s first full month in the format, it managed a full-week 6+ share of just 0.9.
