Buhay OFW on Cyber Pinoy Radio
Cyber Pinoy Radio is proud to unveil its newest show – Buhay OFW. Hosted by DJ Bless, an OFW herself, the new radio show features stories and experiences of Overseas Filipino Workers.
Being homesick is just one of the many challenges an OFW faces. In fact, this is one of the reasons why the people behind Cyber Pinoy Radio launched the station. Cyber Pinoy Radio is not just an internet radio, it’s a community of Pinoys working in Europe, Middle East, and in the USA, to name a few. Listeners and djs interact through chat and what could probably ease homesickness than to be able to request and listen to home-grown Pinoy music.

Tambayan 101.9
On November 4, 2009, finally the most awaited re-branding will arrive. Tambayan 101.9 is the new sound, the new face, and the name of DWRR 101.9. DWRR has lifted its supposed re-launching in October 2009 due to the Typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng.
Tambayan 101.9 is sporting the slogan … “Sa’n Ka Pa” (Where else?) Tambayan is a Filipino slang for “a place to hang-out”. The logo is predominantly blue, red, and white, with a fancy font, a hint that the station’s new personality is made even more upbeat, fun, and more mass appealing. I just find the couch icon to be a little off, it’s more of a TV icon than radio.
Tambayan 101.9 is set to officially launch on air November 4, 2009. A launching event called Destination:RadioTopia will take place 7pm, at the A. Venue Hall, Makati Avenue, Makati City.

Hang out with your favorite For Life DJs who are still going to be around at Tambayan 101.9, on air and online at www.tambayan1019.com and tambayan1019.multiply.com
Teasers were airing on the station days before the official launch, all calling to listen to a change that will take place on the 4th of November.

Evolution of DWRR Brand
Waiting in anticipation since October 1, 2009, fans and radio listeners are keeping their seat belts tight for a new 101.9 DWRR brand to launch very soon. Meantime, the station goes on an automated jock-less mode and identifies itself as ABS-CBN 101.9. According to DJ Laila, the DJs are still around but are only spinning until official launch of the new brand.
No one knows for now if this re-branding is a complete format flip or just a new logo launch. DWRR, has had many rebrandings in the past from KO Radio in 1986, Zoo 101.9 in 1987, Radio Romance in 1989, WRR 101.9 in 1996, “Alam Mo Na ‘Yan! 101.9 For Life!” in 2005, and Bespren 101.9 For Life in 2009.
While everyone’s speculating on the precise day of the launch, some are thinking that the station will embrace the network’s provincial FM brand M.O.R. (My Only Radio). It won’t be for long though, if it’s going to be M.O.R. 101.9 or something else.
In the meantime, let’s take a trip back in time with the evolution of the DWRR 101.9 logo and jingles.

The Pinoy Radio UK Logo - a new all OPM internet station based in London
Pinoy Radio UK is the first and only 24/7 online radio in the United Kingdom and Europe playing purely Original Pilipino Music (OPM). It’s broadcasting from the heart of the UK with studios in London, England. Songs composed and performed by Filipino artists from the 70s up to today’s current OPM hits are featured on the station.
Sonny Laragan is the station manager of Pinoy Radio UK and he generously took time with us to share the story and sound of the new Pinoy internet station.
1. How did the idea of putting up Pinoy Radio UK come up?

Sonny Laragan - Station Manager
Actually, the plan is to have a pinoy radio station in every country here in Europe. Everything starts here in London first. We plan on having O/B (outdoor) broadcast vans for remotes.
Then if everything works out fine, then we start another radio station in Italy. It would be Pinoy Radio Italia. We could base the station in Italy in Milan probably as we have the biggest concentration of pinoys in the city. We would try to expand to Rome and other main cities of Italy.
After Italy…the 3rd priority for establishing a pinoy radio station would be Austria (Viennna & Salzburg). Then the rest would follow. However, I would have to create a base in Manila as well to serve as a news center for all radio stations in Europe.
2. What is the goal of Pinoy Radio UK ?
The idea of putting up the station began 3 or 4 years ago. My objective was to create a station that would be 100% OPM. To play songs either composed or performed by Filipino artists/singers.
3. What are the programs, shows, and segments of Pinoy Radio UK?
The planned programs are as follows:
Sunday Live (2 – 5 pm UK / 9pm – 12 mn RP) The aim for this show is to have a guest singer/band on the program and give the listeners a chance to interview the guests on the show.
On The Spot (1 – 2 pm UK / 8 -9 pm RP) A hour of songs of a featured artist of the week.
Sabado Night Pary (9pm – 12 mn UK / 4 – 7 am RP) 3 hours of dance and uptempo songs
Nigh Jam (Weeknights 9 – 11 pm UK / 4 – 7 am RP) A 2 hour call-in talk program
These are initial programs that we would have on the station.
4. How many DJs do you have?
We’re still building the team and the station is a work in progress.
So there you have it. Mr. Sonny Laragan, Station Manager of Pinoy Radio UK. We’ll be hearing more from Pinoy Radio UK as they add new DJs and more stations in key European cities.
Listen now, go to www.pinoyradiouk.com.
Pinoy Radio UK also received jingles from RadioJinglesVIP.com. Take a listen to the cuts below.

U92 FM - Is Metro Manila's New Sound
Losing profits due to declining sales, a well known mall back in my place decided to rent the entire third floor. Within a few months, the third loft looked like a “tiyangge”. Not a bad idea. People start to swarm back to the mall.
After Joey @ 92.3 and XFM, (oh did I mention MRS?) the 92.3 dial point has just gotten another facelift. Introducing — U92. The format — Hot AC. Owner: still NBC, but it’s not them managing the programming.
The U92 format is handled by Francis Lumen, president of All Youth Networks, which covers MTV Philippines. Lumen was a president of NBC and also a blocktimer. When NBC realized they couldn’t make any more profits, they lifted the XFM format and handed over the entire programming task to the AYC President.
Lumen is basically renting the whole DWFM airtime*. The question is will this really bring more profit to NBC?
AYC is a solid company. You got solid names in the industry jocking the station (KC, Marc Abaya among others). Running MTV Philippines means a captured market and competitive edge. No doubt it can generate that much needed revenue.
But like pop music, new brands have the tendency to become disposable. While it’s still hot, they had to make the most out of it. If U92 will become as solid as the MTV brand, they could last for a number of years. If it won’t? Well, NBC can still look for another tenant to do the programming for them. And Francis Lumen won’t have to worry about losing profits.
The mall did get a positive bottom line for a while. Poor owners, the solution they thought later gave them more headache. Their tenants became the owner’s competitors. Shoppers went for the tiyangge’s. Movie watchers preferred the DVDs than going to cineplexes.
Congratulations though to U92. Bring on the love! Cool to be U! Listen to U92 FM Online at www.u92.fm
