WLIT.FM is launching Season 3 with a new mobile app, a redesigned website, and expanded local programming. The Long Island-based dance station aims to reach more listeners with live DJs, local news, and on-demand content.
What We Know: The new WLIT.FM app is available for iPhone and Android, offering live streaming without requiring a login. Listeners can also access show schedules, song histories, Long Island news, and on-demand replays. Additionally, the app supports Apple CarPlay, making it easier to listen while driving. The station has redesigned its website at wlit.fm and will feature live local DJs daily, from morning programming through midnight. Season 3 includes Fresh Cutz with DJ Fresh, The Traffic Jam with DJ Milli, Unhinged with DJ Cory P, and other shows throughout the week.
What They Said: “Z100 talks to the whole tri-state. We talk to Massapequa, Bay Shore, and Huntington. Our DJs live here, our news is about here, and it’s right there on your phone and in your car. Season 3 is the end of being Long Island’s best-kept secret.” -WLIT.FM founder and CEO Cory Poccia
What Remains Unclear: WLIT.FM hasn’t disclosed download figures, audience targets, or specific plans for expanding its reach beyond Long Island. The station also hasn’t detailed whether additional features will arrive during Season 3.
What It Means: WLIT.FM is using its latest digital rollout to strengthen its position in Long Island’s competitive radio market. By combining dance music with local personalities, news, and events, the station aims to distinguish itself from New York outlets such as Z100, 103.5 KTU, and WBLI. The mobile app and CarPlay integration also give listeners more ways to access its programming throughout the day.
