Radio Inside: New station focuses on Swiss music
A new radio station dedicated entirely to Swiss music will begin broadcasting at the end of March. Radio Inside, with its studio based in Zofingen, Aargau, will broadcast via DAB+ and the Internet. Journalist David Kaufmann is the driving force behind the project.
Radio Inside will play 80 percent Swiss music, from dialect rap to folk music, Kaufmann told the SDA news agency on Monday. The station wants to offer Swiss music artists a platform - but "not be a specialty station". The 24-hour radio station wants to finance itself exclusively through advertising. Kaufmann is the initiator and sole owner of Radio Inside. The 26-year-old journalist currently works as a news presenter at the Aargau regional broadcaster Tele M1.
A team of 20 employees will produce the radio program. Four people are permanently employed, Kaufmann said. Radio Inside will broadcast brief information during the day and report on the weather and stock market events. Radio Inside will be broadcast via DAB+ and the Internet. According to Kaufmann, Cabelcom has promised to feed the radio into the digital cable. The studio space at the train station in Zofingen will be occupied in February.
