Why EuroDance music is not popular anymore!?

Radio is a phenomenon and must be treated with respect. Radio is like a virus, you catch it, u can’t treat it or find a cure.
It’s feeling you can’t describe. It’s interesting how with a mic u can talk to all the people and listen to what you playing.
But i found a man infected with this virus, we talked about music, and here is the result:

EurodanceBlog: Hello! How did you start to work as a DJ at RadiOK?
John Cristea : Well , not for a long time. I’ve been speaking at this radio’s mic for only 1 year. I was born with them 

EurodanceBlog: What kind of music does Radio K romote?
John Cristea : We play only hit music from 80’s, 90’s & today’s , adult contemporary. I can say it’s the same genre Europa FM plays.

EurodanceBlog: What is your opinion about eurodance music?
John Cristea : If you want a true answer... Well I really like it, has easy to remember choruses, it is nice and it’s a music that everyone listens to.

EurodanceBlog: This genre is not anymore on top?? Tell me your personal opinion...
John Cristea: No, nowadays styles of music change overnight. Today one style is popular, and tomorrow another is... You must keep connected to all the current styles to remain on top.... if you don’t, you will be forgotten.

EurodanceBlog: On radio is played the music from top 40 ?
John Cristea: It’s not like that a song can be on top 100. If the song has no impact, we don’t play it. It’s about that.... Music is like fashion, every year it changes and brings something new ... and music is like that... if we are not interested in it, we don’t play it.

EurodanceBlog: Why do European radios promote English & American music, while American and British radios only play their artists songs ?
John Cristea: It’s a matter of egoism. They prefer their music. European music is a intruder to them, which has little chances to be heard there.

EurodanceBlog: But how comes many female vocalists such as Melanie Thornton, Helena Paparizou, Anita Doth, Petra Marklund, Alexia to name a few, girls with a potential, are still unknown however...
John Cristea: Music industry is like a market. Today you are on top, and tomorrow you are unknown. The managers are responsible for this.
Having a voice and being able to compete with other artists is not enough, if u are in top it’s ok ... if not ... you’re not promoted

EurodanceBlog: But isn’t it radio’s fault if a song is not on top, even if artists launched new material!?
John Cristea: Yes you’re right but think about it : if the song has not that special feeling what shall we do ? We might lose our listeners... we promote what is promotable, and we also play the music our listeners chose.
I will repeat myself if the song doesn’t have that feeling we won’t play it, but our listeners also have their word to say in the choice of music we are playin here.

EurodanceBlog: When can we hear you ?
John Cristea: Every weekend from 11:00 till 16:00 cet I’m here on RadiOK, talkin and playin music on a radio show called The Bank Hits!!
