DWNU
DWNU (107.5 FM), broadcasting as Wish 107.5 (pronounced as Wish one-o-seven-five), is a radio station owned by Progressive Broadcasting Corporation and operated by Breakthrough and Milestones Productions International (BMPI), the media arm of the Members Church of God International (MCGI). The station's studio is located at La Verdad Christian College - Caloocan Building, 351 EDSA, Brgy. Bagong Barrio West, Caloocan, while its transmitter is located at the UNTV Transmitter Complex, Sumulong Highway, Antipolo, Rizal.
Online, Wish 107.5's first official YouTube channel is currently the Philippines' No. 1 YouTube channel by a local FM station with more than 4.4 billion views and 15.2 million subscribers and got its Diamond Play button from YouTube Creators Awards. The 2nd official YouTube account Wish 1075 (Wish USA) also got more than 384 million views and 2.37 millions subscribers.
On August 31, 1987, an unnamed radio station began broadcasting on 107.5 FM, playing new wave music without call letters or DJs for a month. Upon revealing itself as “DWNU” and inviting listeners to call, its phone lines were inundated for three hours. At the time, its studios were located in Paseo De Roxas, Makati.
NU 107 was conceived by radio veteran Mike Pedero and businessman Atom Henares. Their vision was to establish a benchmark for youth music, with NU 107 broadcasting “dynamic, young, passionate, creative” rock music, aiming to set a new standard for musical taste.
NU 107 first hit the airwaves on October 31, 1987, being one of two FM stations (the other being Power 105 BM FM (now 105.1 Brigada News FM Manila) that played the latest new wave and punk hits during that time. It was also known as the station that inherited the format of WXB 102 (now 102.7 Star FM), which went off air a few months before the birth of NU 107. Meanwhile, the other rock station on the Metro Manila FM bandwidth, Boss Radio DZRJ 100.3 (now 100.3 RJFM), usually played classic rock of the '60s and '70s unlike NU 107 and Power 105 BM FM. Banker Atom Henares started the radio station in 1987, playing new wave music for about six weeks on the 107.5 MHz frequency. After that, when the station's tagline "The Home of New Rock" was aired and their telephone number was announced, the station's telephone rang for three hours straight.
President Corazon Aquino issued an executive order requiring radio stations to air at least three Original Pilipino Music (OPM) hourly; the station asked for contributions from listeners, under the program "In the Raw". The station also instituted the NU Rock Awards, in which the inaugural edition had guests such as Joey Pepe Smith, Freddie Aguilar and Grace Nono, to honor the country's best rock musicians. With Henares were Mike Pedero, who would later become its vice-president, and Cris Hermosisima who would later become the station manager. Back then, its studios were located at the Solidbank Building (now PSBank Center) along Paseo de Roxas in Makati.
In the 1990s, NU 107 mainly played American grunge and alternative rock hits from bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and Silverchair. Also, during that decade, the station played demos and songs from Filipino rock bands, most of which were unsigned. As a result, bands such as The Youth, Yano, Razorback, Wolfgang, Eraserheads, AfterImage and Rivermaya, among others, became highly popular as the Pinoy rock scene surged the airwaves. Later, the station formulated the show "In the Raw", which featured demos from amateur bands.
In 1994, NU 107 held its first NU Rock Awards, which honored the country's most distinguished rock artists every year. The NU Rock Awards was held annually until 2010.
