Athens Deejay 95.2

Athens Deejay 95.2 is a city station, and it sounds like one. The playlist runs on dance and pop with a firm eye on the club, the kind of programming built for taxi rides down Syngrou at 1am rather than careful headphone listening. It's not subtle, and that's fine. Greek radio has always had a strong melodic streak, and you can hear that lineage here, somewhere between the electro-pop of Stereo Nova and whatever's currently packing the clubs in Gazi. Daytime plays it safe. The later hours get looser and more interesting, which is usually where a station like this earns its keep. Ads come thick…
