Smooth FM 107.1 (DZLL 107.1) is an FM radio station owned by Primax Broadcasting Network. Its studio and transmitter is located at Upper Dominican Hill, Baguio City, Philippines. The station's radio format consists of Pop Jazz, Bossa Nova, Soul and R&B.

Smooth FM 107.1, formerly known as Smooth Jazz 107.1, was a very popular radio station in Baguio City during 2000–2003, with its fan-base consisting mostly of yuppies, college, and high school students. Contrary to its name at that time, Smooth Jazz 107.1 gained its fame by being one of the only stations to have an "American" radio format; playing songs that were famous in the U.S. at a time when the Baguio City radio scene was dominated by the novelty, or masa sound. Its DJs also played a big part in its rise to fame. Popular names at that time were Nicki, KC Jones, Sebastian Kidd, J. Webber, Stacey, and Jersey but little was known about the pioneering DJs like "Danny V", "Dr. Soul" and "Johnny Handsome" when the station was transitioned from Mellow Touch (Love Song Based Format) to Smooth Jazz 107.1 in 1997. In 2002–2003, the station started playing a mix of alternative, rock, and R&B.
