===Miami=== Radio stations nationwide began to play hits by artists like [[TKA]], [[Sweet Sensation (trio)|Sweet Sensation]], Exposé, and Sa-Fire on the same playlists as [[Michael Jackson]] and [[Madonna]]. "(You Are My) All and All" by [[Joyce Sims]] became the first freestyle record to cross over into the [[contemporary R&B|R&B]] market, and was one of the first to reach the European market. Radio station [[WPOW]]/Power 96 was noted for exposing freestyle to South Florida in the mid-'80s through the early '90s, as well as mixing in some local [[Miami bass]] into its playlist. '[[Pretty Tony]]' Butler produced several hits on Miami's Jam-Packed Records, including [[Debbie Deb]]'s "When I Hear Music" and "Lookout Weekend", and Trinere's "I'll Be All You'll Ever Need" and "[[They're Playing Our Song (Trinere song)|They're Playing Our Song]]". Company B, Stevie B, [[Paris by Air (group)|Paris by Air]], [[Linear (pop group)|Linear]], [[Will to Power (band)|Will to Power]] and Exposé's later hits defined Miami freestyle. [[Tolga Katas]] is credited as one of the first people to create a hit record entirely on a computer,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.becomingtheidol.com/producer-on-demand/|title=Producer On Demand (PROD)|date=December 12, 2017|website=StarMentors Music Artist Career Development and Mentoring, LLC|language=en-US|access-date=February 6, 2019|archive-date=February 7, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190207075404/http://www.becomingtheidol.com/producer-on-demand/|url-status=dead}}</ref> and produced Stevie B's "Party Your Body", "In My Eyes" and "Dreamin' of Love". Katas' record label Futura Records was an incubator for artists such as Linear, who achieved international success after a move from Futura to Atlantic Records.
