Description: Following Chicago's Disco Demolition Night in 1979, disco music's mainstream popularity fell into decline. In the early '80s, fewer and fewer disco records were being released, but the genre remained popular in some Chicago nightclubs and on at least one radio station, WBMX-FM. In this era, Chicago radio jocks played various styles of dance music, including older disco records, newer Italo disco, electro, EBM tracks, B-boy hip hop music as well as electronic pop music. Some of these DJs also made and played their own edits of their favorite songs on reel-to-reel tape, focusing on the portions of songs that worked well on the dancefloor.
Description: WMET originally hit the air on March 9, 1959, as WDHF, owned by Hi-Fi systems and record store owner James DeHaan. Its call sign stood for DeHaan Hi-Fi and operated out of DeHaan's store in Evergreen Park, Illinois with its transmitter and tower in Oak Lawn. The station was primarily an easy listening format and would eventually go to a Top 40 model after changing ownership a few times. In 1976, the station's call letters were changed to WMET, while retaining its top 40 format and by 1979 had embraced an album-oriented rock (AOR) format.
