89 DMZ Danze Muzic Zone (formerly under DZMZ 89.1 MHz Metro Manila) was a music FM station from November 18, 1989 until February 28, 2001 and was owned and operated by Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation in the Philippines. Its studios were located at Broadcast City, Capitol Hills, Diliman, Quezon City, with its transmitter located along Roosevelt Avenue, San Francisco del Monte, Quezon City.

History[edit]

Initially known as DWKB-FM (KB 89.1), the station first aired in 1975 and in a short time, became one of the country's most listened to easy listening FM music stations.

As 89 DMZ[edit]

The station later rebranded as 89 DMZ on November 18, 1989 (it also changed its callsign to DZMZ-FM) which played dance music such as disco, new wave, Euro/Italo disco, electronic dance music, house and Eurodance; hip hop, R&B, pop, OPM, hot AC and remixed music from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. The late rapper, Francis Magalona, worked with the station through his program, "The Word-up Show", which aired on Saturday nights. It also became the home of the "Mobile Circuit" every Friday night. Back then, the station operated 18 hours a day.

The end of 89 DMZ[edit]

In 2001, IBC and Blockbuster Broadcasting System went into a government-sponsored bidding and Blockbuster Broadcasting System won the frequency rights as Wave 891 (callsign changed to DWAV). However, the network still shared its transmission facilities of IBC 13 until 2014.
