This independent radio station began broadcasting in 2020, initially planned for the 2020 lockdowns. It originated on Telegram with 40 daily listeners and has since grown to over 32,000 weekly listeners. The station describes itself as a "feel good - high vibrational" station, playing music from five decades, including familiar songs curated in a surprising and energizing way. The playlist features house classics, 1970s and 1980s music, and 1990s and 2000s anthems that are often absent from mainstream radio. Unique remixes and tracks from independent artists that fit the "feel good" format are also included. The station explicitly states it does not broadcast news, politics, or "doom and gloom," focusing instead on "high-vibrational music." Programming also includes station jingles and community information. The station operates 24/7 and relies on listener donations for its survival, positioning itself as an alternative to government-regulated mainstream stations. The team behind the station emphasizes privacy and independence, avoiding media interviews and public performances.
