"In 1994, when St. John first arrived at what was then Wild 107.7, the stations format consisted mostly of Old School, Hip Hop and FreeStyle records. Ready for a new direction and recognizing the importance of dance music in the Bay Area, St. John pushed for a more progressive and edgier dance sound. Finally with consistency and hard work, Wild 107 aired Nocturnal Transmissions' in 1994, the Bay Area's first house show in more than 3 years. This show was hosted by St. John, and featured local resident club DJs. As the Bay Area grew more accustomed to the house sound 'Nocturnal Transmissions' evolved into 'St. John's Playhouse', where St. John teamed up with David Garcia to bring ground breaking records. As the Bay Area's mainstream audience became more aware and began to accept an underground sound, 'St. John's Playhouse' became 'House Nation'. A show that caters to the global house sound and it's culture. 'House Nation' brings you cutting edge dance music. This CD is House To The Fullest"
