LocalWorks

LocalWorks was the name used to catergorise all of the local heritage radio stations operated by RadioWorks. The music format on most of the LocalWorks stations was an Adult Contemporary format, Hot AC format or Easy Listening format.

Adult Contemporary Radio Stations

These stations played an Adult Contemporary Music format:

* KCC FM Northland
* Y99.3 FM Waikato
* Coastline FM Tauranga
* Lakes 96FM Rotorua
* Energy FM Taranaki
* Hot 93 Hawkes Bay
* Star FM Wanganui
* 2XS Manawatu
* Fifeshire FM Nelson
* C93FM Christchurch
* Radio Central Central Otago
* Resort Radio Queenstown
* 4XO Dunedin
* Foveaux FM Southland

C93FM was originally a Classic rock station but after RadioWorks decided to network The Rock into Christchurch the music format was changed, this station was shut down in 2001. Y99.3 FM changed to an Easy Listening format when it was rebranded as The Breeze. The other stations were rebranded as More FM in 2004.

Easy Listening Stations

* Magic FM Manawatu
* The Breeze Wellington
* Lite FM Christchurch

All of these stations were rebranded as The Breeze in 2004 but were kept as separate local stations from the original The Breeze station in Wellington.

Other Stations

* Times FM Rodney
* Radio Dunedin
* Big River Radio Balclutha

These stations were not affected by the rebranding of LocalWorks stations to More FM or The Breeze, however Big River Radio has simulcast with Dunedin's 4XO (now More FM) in recent years outside of the breakfast show.

Playlist Centralising

In March 2003 RadioWorks made a decision to introduce a centralised playlist onto the majority of the LocalWorks Adult Contemporary stations. The centralised playlist was introduced to create a standard in the music played on each station, this change meant that essentially all stations would play the same songs, stations were able to opt out from the centralised playlist to run specialty shows such as an "All Eighties Show." During the middle of 2004 all of the More FM stations changed to use the Centralised Playlist, this created consistency between the More FM and LocalWorks stations preparing the LocalWorks stations to be rebranded as More FM at the end of 2004. 4XO in Dunedin and Radio Dunedin did not use the centralised playlist as More FM as this would mean both stations would play the same music as More FM in Dunedin. The Easy Listening stations did not use a centralised playlist and even today with these stations being re-branded as The Breeze these stations produce their own independent playlists for local shows.
