Original IDs from DJs and presenters: short drops, proper station imaging and voices heard again after more than a decade.
Original DanceRadio imaging / 2010–2011
Press play on the past.
These short IDs only play when selected. Starting one pauses the live stream so the two signals never fight each other.

Signal ledger
DanceRadio has changed platforms, servers and visual identities. The through-line is people sharing long-form electronic music without sanding off its edges.
Station founded
DanceRadio.ca begins broadcasting Canadian and international electronic music.
Radio One grows
Original programme cards and artist station IDs survive from this era.
On the floor
Live event broadcasts connect Ottawa nightlife directly to the stream.
Magazine era
News, shows, artists and festivals become a deep WordPress publication.
New partnerships
Decoded Radio and an expanding international programme schedule join the signal.
Transmission restored
The archive and live stream return on resilient new station infrastructure.
05
What the station stands for
Condensed from the original About page: the standards that made DanceRadio independent, international and worth tuning into.
Built with listeners and DJs
The station grows through the people who make, select and care about the music.
New voices beside known names
Up-and-coming DJs, residents and international artists all get a seat at the table.
New, current, accountable
Programme quality matters. The original standard was fresh material every week.
Long-form mixes
Continuous sets of at least an hour, built to be heard as journeys rather than clips.
Original and properly obtained
No borrowed filler stream. The station carries material supplied for the station.
Music before interruption
Commercial-free programming remains the goal while the station supports its operating costs.
Got a show worth hearing?
DanceRadio was built around partnership with working DJs and producers. Programme submissions are open.
