Radio el Sol

An online tropical music station founded in 2008, created to fill a gap in the local market for Spanish-language tropical radio programming. After the original local broadcast signal proved unviable, the station continued exclusively online, growing rapidly to reach listeners not only locally but worldwide. Programming centers on salsa, merengue, and bachata, with a roster of DJs presenting themed shows including classic salsa and merengue sets, bachata new releases, and weekend specialty programs. The schedule operates across multiple time zones, reflecting its international listenership. The station grew its audience through social media and streaming during a period of rapid growth in online radio.
