The Disco Heat shut down on September 18, 2006. I've been running the station for over 2 years, and in that time it has become a very successful radio station - and it is with very mixed emotion that I decided to shutter the site.

I started The Disco Heat as a hobby in my spare time. Over the years, the time and money to maintain this site has grown exponentially — and are just beyond what one person can do on a part-time basis. When you run a small site, you always have to be available — in case there's a server problem, or user issues.

Keeping the site running was a continuous labor of love and in the end, I realized I was swimming against an incoming tide. Thanks to all the folks who have donated in the past and helped me stay on the air as long as I did.

The music was the spirit of The Disco Heat and that will always endure.
