– Agreement with Futuri Media’s innovative #engage, POST, and TopicPulse technologies puts KiSS at the forefront of audience engagement –

VANCOUVER (October 16, 2017) Can’t get enough of Taylor Swift’s new track? Tired of hearing Despacito? Beginning today, KiSS RADiO will shake up the airwaves in Chilliwack, Abbotsford, and Vancouver when listeners take the reins of the station’s playlist. Through KiSSRadio.ca and the KiSS app for iOS and Android, listeners have the power to choose from the station’s wide range of hit tracks on what songs they want to hear. Becoming the first Canadian station to offer a listener experience designed by the people for the people, available every hour and every day of the week, songs on the KiSS playlist are pushed up and down in real time through user votes, with the most popular songs going to air.

“Audience expectations are changing, and we’re always exploring new ways to deepen engagement with our listeners on digital platforms,” said John Hipper, Program Director, KiSS RADiO, Rogers Media. “This innovative approach to song selection makes the listening experience a true partnership between our station and our audience by offering listeners the chance to co-create the musical experience of the entire station.”

KiSS’s collaboration with Futuri Media, a global leader in audience engagement tools for broadcasters, utilizes three innovative technologies – Futuri Media’s #engage, POST, and TopicPulse.

“We’re honoured that Rogers Media and KiSS RADiO are working with Futuri Media’s #engage, POST, and TopicPulse technologies to power their innovation,” said Daniel Anstandig, CEO, Futuri Media. “The launch of Canada’s first fully-interactive radio station is a major milestone for the industry.”

Audiences can sign-up to receive alerts indicating when their favourite song is about to play and easily share their favourite tracks to social to encourage friends to join in the fun. An up-to-date list of “Recent Songs Voted On-Air” keep audiences in-the-know of KiSS’s biggest hits.

KiSS RADiO listeners can learn more on how to vote for the songs they want to hear by visiting KiSSRadio.ca. KiSS RADiO can be heard on-air, online, through the KiSS RADiO app and via Radioplayer Canada.
