a vision of an energized and bubbly-sparkly olivia newton-john wearing an aerobic workout outfit appeared when i heard the "movin 107" promo, which explains the the listener the excitment-filled innovative format/flop.

after being twisted into a pretzel by the agency qweens and the directs that are tired of the hype and bullshit with every format scramble, by december they will have had enough.

i want to get ahead of the curve and present new one word format suggestions:

wizard 107 (new age)
nasty 107 (hip-hop/urban)
gallop 107 (wild-west country)

oh, and one more before i forget

pedophile 107 (christian/republican talk radio)

well...wasnt that a diverse, tolerant comment kid....livin' up to your name, are ya?

geez...sad really...grab a mirror and tell yourself that you are ashamed, then grab a corner and sit in it....might as well accept the punishments that go with the age you are acting....

wow...

Ouch!

Might as well add:

Tight 107 (male targeted hip-hop / house)
Stretch 107 (druggies, pimps, etc...)
Snaps 107 (OMFG! It's Seacrest IN!)

Ugh.

I think pedophile 107 is more of a Catholic run station...Got the republican right though...

yeah..obviously there are no democrat, libertarian, etc pedophiles....sheesh...another maroon..

do the idiot consultants come with the deal?

Not to be mean Wqxid, but what have you accomplished in your radio career? Most consultants I know have programmed multiple stations to big ratings in big markets. They have done this through hard work, creativity, and strategic thinking.

What is so "idiot" about these people again?

i think you answer your own question...........you idiot

While driving my 16 year old to school this morning, I put "movin" on the radio. I told her it was a new format. After three songs, she said that all three were totally different and she did not see how they were related.

She doesn't listen to Charley, either.

I don't think she is going to add "movin" to her list of pushbuttons. She has 4 she cycles through looking for something she likes. When she hears something she doesn't like, she tries the next one.... KUPL, KWJJ, 95.5, Z100. She said her main go to is 95.5. She also said that she is shying away from Z100 lately because their playlist or whatever seems to be small and you hear too many things repeated too often. Said it appeals more to the younger teens.

It only took me 1 1/2 songs to realize how crappy this station is!

Thriller.....have heard it way to many times.....for the little ......very little I have sampled.
Sell It....let someone do some good with it!

Pussycat Dolls - Buttons
Color Me Badd - I wanna sex you up
Blondie - Heart Of Glass
Alica Keys - Fallin'
Destiny's Child - Call my name

CHARLIE??? Sounds alot like Charlie.....

RHY/AC???
Huh?

Below is KVMX's TOP 10....
RHY/AC????
Looks alot like Z100 and Charlie... With a little of DUHBuzz MIXed in.....



Nelly Furtado | Promiscuous (w/ Timbaland)

Shakira | Hips Don't Lie (w/ Wyclef Jean)

The Pussycat Dolls | Buttons

Rihanna | SOS (Rescue Me)

Lynyrd Skynyrd | Sweet Home Alabama

Eddie Money | Baby Hold On

The Black Crowes | Hard To Handle

Black Eyed Peas | Let's Get It Started

Gnarls Barkley | Crazy

Natasha Bedingfield | Unwritten

There tagline is "Songs that make you feel good".
Songs from today and when you were in school???? I think K103 uses this tag line also???

Stop! It's HAMMER TIME!

Also did you notice the female voice on MOVIN is exactly the same female voice girl on K103.

Yeah I noticed that too Sal. Ive also noticed that they play Prince and Madonna almost every hour. That will burn out really quickly!
How many times do we need to hear "1999".??

These three songs are obviously from 107.5's "Rock Hits" format:

Lynyrd Skynyrd | Sweet Home Alabama
Eddie Money | Baby Hold On
The Black Crowes | Hard To Handle

Clear Channel (K103) knew that Portland was about to get "Movin", which is why they stole some of Movin's imaging lines.

I noticed how the Buzz has liners that have people saying, I love the music it keeps me "movin".
The buzz should drop all of the rythmic music know that Movin owns most of that music now.

A little tidbit from Programming 201...at least the version I went through.

When a new station signs on the air it is almost always a mistake to alter your programming to "counter" the new station. All this does is confuse your current listeners as to what your station is, which makes them more likely to feel the desire to sample a new station.

So hot..you burn out after 30 minutes of listening to it.

The oldest song I've heard is playing as I post. KC & The Sunshine Band, "Get Down Tonight," 1975.

I just heard marvin Gaye "lets get it on tonight"
Isn't that older?

"Let's Get It On," 1973.

I just tried to listen live and it pulled a Movin station from Dallas Texas.....NOOOOOOOOOOOO..dont wanna listen to dallas Texas..I wanna listen to Portland.

no big thang.... Moovin is moovin PDX/Dallas or where ever... with their commitment to reaching their LOCAL AUDIENCE movin is sure to be the next BIG THING.... right up there with ALICE!

Their slogan should be: "The soundtrack to your drunken bachelorette party". : )

Im glad Xpert's getting a boner off these stations, because I'm sure not!

Movin 101.1 WMVN-St. Louis: www.movin1011.com

Thought my radio was messed up but it was just IPOD static! LOL...just kidding. Not my type of music but to each there own. Cannot quite get used to Charlie....like it most of the time but they are to varied...it is just not right to follow a good ROCK HIT by Earth Wind and Fire! That is just wrong. You just get going on three or four good tunes then WHAM...it's like shifting into first at 70. Kind of wandering through the dial right now....have not found anything yet that warrants a pre-set to replace MIX. Charlie is probably the closest though so far.

the idiot who dreamed up this pile of garbage also thought the katie couric cbs news anchor idea was a brilliant programming move

Are you referring to 107.5?

Well....I thought it was time to chime in with the whole Movin 1075 debacle. I think the music is awful and unlistenable. And this is why

For some Reason the people who programed the music think that people want to hear Crappy dance songs and cheesy 80's songs every day! Im sorry but a majority of the music they play is Cheese! Who really wants to hear Vanilla Ice "Ice Ice baby" Every day? That song is fun to hear everyonce in a while, especially just to make fun of it, but EVERYDAY? Stacey Q "two of hearts"- Please! Ultimate 80's cheese.(painfully bad) I don't see how this station will have any lasting power. My bet is it will be done with in a year. None of the songs have any substance to them, I can see going to the gym and listening to this station every once in a while ,but every day in the car, NO WAY! The selections they are playing have been SO OVERPLAYED and beaten to the ground nobody will stick around. The variety of music is poor and Im hearing Madonna and prince Every Time I turn that station on. OVERKILL! Most of the stuff is so cheesy, even 20-30 year old women won't be able to take the stuff they are playing. Im in the demo and I laugh at the song selections, and thats not a good thing.

Go to www.movin1075portland.com and you'll find that you go to a completely different station. Hmmm.. Think they're feeling a little threatened?

Hmmmm.....What the heck is up with that?

Not just a completely different station...a completely different corporation.

The movin concept makes for a fun and interesting sat night feature, but not sure that it can stand long as a format.....

Saturday nights 6pm till 5am We get you MOVIN with all of your favorite dance hits... join (Candy Pants from 6 till midnight and Moe Moosic overnight)for SATURDAY NITE DANCE PARTY, only on K***............

...Movin, movin, movin, though they're disaprovin,
Keep those listeners MOOVIN' rawhide.
Don't try to understand it,
Flip the format and brand it.
Put it on stations nationwide............

Here is the right site....
WOW!
LOL!

http://www.movin1075.com/

Trixter

Interesting website. They really put a lot of effort into that one! LOL

I like www.movin1075portland.com better.....

Ya think 103 did that on purpose???
NO WAY!

Weird........

Why you think they did that then? 1075 is not even their dial numbers or even one of their stations.

OMFG!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE K103 DID THAT??????
OF CORSE THEY DID THAT ON PURPOSE! THAT IS EVIL, BUT ALSO DAMN FUNNY AT THE SAME TIME!!!!

Talk about War tactics, k103 must really be worried about Movin. How can they get away with doing that? Especially since they are using the Movin 1075 name.
I smell a lawsuit for k103.
CBS employees TAKE NOTICE!

CBS should have bought that webspace. It is fair game. What about when the number one porn site was www.whitehouse.com and the real government site was actually www.whitehouse.gov You think the US government could have done something about that to.
You snooze you lose.

www.whitehouse.com is no longer a porno site, it is a people finder site. Go ahead see for yourself.

CBS is sleeping at the wheel. They already lost their own domain site for movin. If this is any sign of what kind of effort that CBS will be putting into Movin, than the station will be a Piece of shit.

I know that it is now but it was a while back.

check this out:
This company:
Registrant:
MP4 LTD
7251 W. Lake Mead Blvd
Suite 300
Las Vegas, Nevada 89128
United States
They bought other movin.com sites on October 6th.
www.movin1027.com was another on the same day as www.movin1033.com.
103 just beat them to the punch with 1075 as they got it on Sep 29th.
Check out the whois on networksolutions webpage. Wonder why they did not get 1033 though? If you work at a radio station and fear it may be changing formats check for whois information on the name you think it may flip to! See if your parent company bought it recently.

Change that...
Clear channel bought movin1075portland on Oct 3rd.

Hmmmm
www.movin1075.com was bought on the Sep 29th.
www.movin1075portland.com on Oct 3rd.
www.movin1027.com on Oct 9th.
www.movin1033.com on Oct 9th.

Lots of Movin activity with domain names.
But you are right that how can 103 get away with brandX address.

Hmmm....
More interesting...
www.k103.com and www.movin1075portland.com both resolve to the same IP address and arrive at the same website......it appears they just did that as a traffic grabber.

Could Las Vegas' Star 102.7 be the next Movin?

Kind of looks that way from the web purchases or else someone is just buying them up in hopes of selling them off.

Who could be Movin on 103.3? I can't think of any west coast possibilities.

Maybe 103.3 was just mad at 107.5 for launching MOVIN before they did!

I remember a few years ago CC did the same thing with Rosie 105. Just a few days after the station launch Rosy105.com got you to Z100's web site. It was aumsing to me that they ended up spelling it "Rosie".

>>I CAN'T BELIEVE K103 DID THAT?

Old news. CC has been doing this to the competition for years. They did it to "Rosie 105" with an address that led to the Z-100 website.

Maybe someone should buy www.k1033.com and sell it to Infinity!

Or go buy www.movin1075.fm...I cannot beleive CBS left that one open....it is available.
