Happy 10th Birthday RadioNowhere!

 

On a rather ordinary evening at around 9pm on 11^.November 2002, a rather extraordinary, little radio station called RadioNowhere took to the airwaves. A decade has passed since that night and the world of music has changed more than anyone would have imagined.  We like to think the little station we launched helped open a few eyes and a whole lotta ears.  The aim of RadioNowhere was, and to this very day still is, to bring to you music you won’t hear anywhere else. 

What does that mean? It means we play artists who write really amazing songs that mainstream radio won’t touch and that hipsters are afraid to listen to because the bandwagon isn’t big enough yet.  We play little acts that just so happened to go on to become massive worldwide phenomena. We play records from artists who died many years ago and whose albums were consigned to charity shops and second hand record stores for all eternity.  We remember them, rescue those dusty pieces of vinyl, and proudly give them the airtime they always deserved. We play artists who never made it, but whose music was too good to be forgotten just because they never generated enough money for the greedy label that terminated their record contract.  We remember them.  We don’t make you vote to hear a great song, because frankly a good song should just be played and not voted for. Bands come and go.  Singers come and go.  The difference is we have the good sense to know that nothing is truly gone if you remember it.

RadioNowhere has been fortunate enough to have an amazing family of volunteers who have lovingly prepared radio programmes for you, the listener, in a way that no other station can or ever would.  They love every song they play and wish to pass on that passion to you, the listener.

RadioNowhere has and always will be for the individual – any person whose life is enhanced through the wonder of music.  Trends and fads in music come and go. We like to think RadioNowhere has transcended that and has been able to bring to you a listening experience that introduced you to a world of melodies that before 11 November 2002 was unthinkable.  It’s been a journey of love and joy through so many songs and we’re just so proud you were there to share it with us.

RadioNowhere.org wishes to thank those who have supported us above and beyond the call of duty over the last 10 years…
