Free Radio Rotterdam

Free Radio Rotterdam is a pop radio Netherlands staple with a distinctly local Rotterdam flavor. The playlist moves between Dutch-language hits and international pop, from Anouk's rock-infused ballads to Charli XCX's hyperpop. It's a curious mix that mostly works. The station keeps talk to a minimum, letting the music breathe. Daytime programming leans safe - lots of Ed Sheeran and Dua Lipa. But after 8pm, the curation gets bolder: Europop deep cuts and Belgian indie pop sneak in. The station doesn't overthink its playlist. You'll hear a run of Dutch pop classics like 'Brabant' by Guus Meeuwis…
