The first song played on Playlist was "Somebody" by Bryan Adams.[12] The new format featured hit songs spanning the period from 1964 to 2010, consisting of a mix of top 40, R&B, adult contemporary and alternative rock.
Air1
On December 1, 2012, at midnight, KLST/KLSN/KLSI (the call signs changed shortly after) officially flipped from AC to the nationally syndicated Christian contemporary hit radio (Christian CHR) network Air1 under new owner Educational Media Foundation.[13] This transaction brought the Christian CHR format to suburban areas of Los Angeles with the station's multiple rimshot Class A signals.[4] At the time of the flip, Air1 played music from a wide variety of contemporary Christian artists such as Tauren Wells, TobyMac, Group 1 Crew, Seventh Day Slumber, and Skillet. The feed is also heard on KTLW's network of Class A FM translators in portions of the northern Los Angeles area as well as on a 92.7 FM repeater in southwestern parts of the metro.[14]
The Air1 network flipped to contemporary worship music on January 1, 2019.[15][16]
