8radio.com celebrates 10th birthday with call for more recognition of niche channels
The station prides itself on its eclectic musical choices with Mr Maher saying the station’s playlist is “a testament to its dedication to providing a platform for musical diversity as well as new broadcasting talent. This approach has attracted a dedicated and diverse listener base, united by their shared love for exceptional music.”
While it can be accessed via its app, and TuneIn Radio as well as on FM for 30 days a year on a temporary licence, Mr Maher called for a greater opportunity to reach the widest possible audience. “As 8Radio.com celebrates its 10th birthday, we look ahead to a future brimming with exciting possibilities,” he said. “The station remains committed to exploring new avenues for musical exploration, engaging listeners in innovative ways, and continuing to champion artists that deserve to be heard, particularly home-grown acts.”
He added that the station was taking a proactive step by encouraging the new media commission “to license localised DAB radio multiplexes immediately, allowing niche Irish broadcasters access to a low-cost broadcast platform. With the rise of digital media, 8Radio.com is poised to make an even greater impact in the years to come.”
The station is back on FM for a special 10-day broadcast until September 17th and can be accessed at 105.2FM in Dublin, 105.5FM in Limerick, 106.7FM in Cork, and 87.9FM in Galway. It will also broadcast live from Whelan’s of Wexford Street, Dublin on Saturday, September 16th to celebrate its birthday.
