Mix
Mix was interesting. Not at all what I expected. I haven't listened to a Clear Channel Mix station in a long time. I thought it would a typical boring music for boring people channel. I dreaded having to sit through Rod Stewart love ballads and the like.
Mix wasn't that at all. In fact, I was glad to see that they didn't play many ballads. I heard a lot of music which would fit with the 90s on 9. Goo Goo Dolls, Dave Matthews, Counting Crows, U2. They also play some current music: All the non-rap music and non country music. This isn't a problem as some of the music is good. However, there just isn't enough new music that fits the "mainstream" tastes. Thus, there is a lot of repitition.
I'm guessing the target demographic for this station is 25-35 years old females. They're also targeting a group of people who aren't very adventuresome musically.
So, this station can be OK for about an hour. However, this station reminds me of a chain restaurant. It will fill you up, but I won't remember it. Still, there are those who think the Olive Garden is a fine Italian restaurant. To each his own;
