What would you say are the only decent stations these days?

Scanning around I can’t seem to find many English dance stations anymore.

Seems like radio is pretty dead :rip

Depends what music you like. Lately I've been switching between vision 88.4, point blank 90.2, front fm 91.7, eruption 92.2, unid 95.1, divine 97.9, 101.2, conscious 102.0

And randomly occasionally listen to vibes 93.8 and mega 91.5

What has that got to do with anything lol ? Pirate station listeners are mostly on fm anyway.

Seem to be very ‘housey’ recently though. Need more Garage on there


I see they got a decent following on social media and when their djs are live on fb they rack up some good shares likes and views

I thought the fm was also a way to get found in the first place I could never get kream on fm very well and with unlimited data seems easier online to listen

Generally speaking in London I'd say not many these days, despite the quantity/rammed FM dial....

When I am in London my pirate go to's at the moment are (in no particular order) are:

Vision
House
Point Blank
Vibes
Concious

I also quite liked that Infrared d'n'b station that popped up on 97.5 over the xmas period, don't know if they're still on the FM though? (Although their stream is still running online).

Everything else is average at best, inconsistent or just plain poo IMO.
