A youth-focused community station
In2beats, originally known as Intobeats, announced in October 2008 that it was applying for a community radio licence. It won its licence in May 2009 and began legal broadcasting in April 2011. The station was created to bring an urban music-based community radio service to people aged 14 to 35 in Bedford, offering opportunities for people from different backgrounds to take part and providing training in media and life skills. In2beats has since helped bring small-scale DAB to the town: the Bedford DAB multiplex, involving the In2DAB team, launched on 10 February 2024, and in2beats can now be heard on DAB as well as FM.
What you will hear
The music on in2beats covers hip hop, R&B, grime, UK rap, Afrobeats, dance, house and garage, with DJs and presenters from the local community hosting their own shows. Between the music, presenters share local information, events and opportunities for young people, and interviews with local artists, organisations and community figures. Overnight, automated programming keeps the beats flowing, while evenings and weekends bring specialist shows and live DJ sets. The station's mix of music and community focus makes it a real voice for Bedford's younger and diverse population.
