Around 2015, the station modified to more of an oldies format playing one or two standards an hour at most. WHLI picked up Westwood One News for its world and national coverage. In 2019, WHLI dropped all remaining standards artists and became an all-oldies station. Top 40 hits from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s made up the music format.

By 2000, Jammin' Oldies stations had different approaches, with some playing only 60s and 70s music, and others focusing more on the 80s, with still others such as WMOJ playing early rap. KMBX played no 60s music, while WJJJ (which was co-owned with oldies WWSW ) added songs from the 80s and 90s and de-emphasized Motown .
Most stations adopted a 70–80% instrumental – 20–30% vocal mix, a few offered 90% instrumentals, and a handful were entirely instrumental. Initially, the vocalists consisted of artists such as Frank Sinatra , Nat King Cole , Peggy Lee , Tony Bennett , Patti Page , Johnny Mathis , Perry Como , Doris Day , and others.
Prior to KORL-FM's move-in, another radio station broadcast on the same frequency, called "Energy 101.1" . It aired nonstop dance music at around 2pm to 2am from Ala Moana to Pearlridge. Energy 101.1's frequency could not be heard from the windward areas such as Kaneohe and Kailua. KXRG later signed off so KORL-FM could occupy the frequency.
LDC Radio's programming consists largely of dance and urban music, with a mix of genres provided in daytime and specialist programming during the evening and weekend hours. The station also syndicates well known radio shows from big name DJs overnights on weekends.
