Dit radiostation is gespecialiseerd in Hip Hop, R&B, Urban, Talk, News-muziek.

A Dutch public radio station that began broadcasting on August 3, 2002, primarily focusing on urban music. It targets young people between 15 and 35 years old, with a particular emphasis on reaching youth in the Randstad region. Its musical programming encompasses mainstream pop, R&B, hip-hop, Latin, reggae, dancehall, oriental, Turkpop, farsipop, bhangra, rai, French-African hip-hop, Mandopop, and other crossover styles. The station operates with four city editions for Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, and The Hague, alongside a national edition launched on September 6, 2005. The local broadcasts feature a shared framework program, with certain hours split into distinct local editions. These city editions are transmitted via FM in the vicinity of their respective cities. The national edition is available through DVB-T, DAB+, cable, satellite, and the internet, but not via FM. Additionally, special internet-only editions cater to specific music styles, including FunX Arab, FunX Fissa, FunX Hip Hop, FunX Latin, FunX Afro, and FunX Slow Jamz. Since 2012, the Stichting FunX has been the primary entity managing the station's activities on behalf of the Nederlandse Publieke Omroep (NPO), which has funded the station since the national government and municipalities largely ceased their contributions. FunX BV, a subsidiary of Stichting G4 Radio, handles local activities and advertising sales. This foundation is a collaboration of the local broadcasters from the four major cities: SALTO Omroep Amsterdam, Stichting Open Rotterdam, RTV Utrecht, and Stadsomroep Den Haag. The broadcast licenses for the local editions are held by these four local public broadcasters, while the national version is owned by the NPO. From its inception until 2006, the national edition was affiliated with BNN, but since late 2006, the NOS board of directors, a significant financier, established a direct link through the then-Stichting Colorful Radio. The station's funding comes from the four participating broadcasters, the Board of Directors of the Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS), and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, supplemented by advertising revenue. In total, the station receives approximately 3.8 million euros in subsidies and public funds. As of January 1, 2009, the NOS Board of Directors contributed around 2 million euros, an increase from 1.7 million euros in 2008. On July 12, 2024, the station updated its slogan from "The sound of the city" to "your city your sound" and introduced a new logo and corporate identity.
