2009 Best of Dance Radio charts and reporting

Jason Jani of NJ based Sound Connection Entertainment reports weekly to record promotion and distribution source Promo Only on his top tracks featured in some of his radio mixshows for the FMQB.  For those that do not know, the input received from the mixhsow DJs by the record labels and promotion companies assists in shaping most of the music that is heard nationally on FM radio (and at mobile events such as weddings) in the US and around the world.  It allows the record labels to access DJ opinions and input from listeners ideally helping them determine which songs and artists to support etc.  Many records or songs are tested in the mixshows before they are commercially available and in heavy rotation on radio.

This week, all of the Mixshow DJ’s who report their weekly record breakouts,along with Radio Station Programers, Artists, and Record Label Representatives and esteemed industry talent posted their best of 2009 on the FMQB Promotions Dance site.  It is interesting and exciting to see what some of the best in the DJ and radio industry list as their 2009 favorites…
