Independent radio from London

London has a long history of community and independent radio, from the pirate stations of the 1980s and 1990s to today's online broadcasters. Venture FM belongs to that tradition: rather than a national brand, it is a station run by people who love the music and want to share it. Because it broadcasts on the internet, listeners can tune in from anywhere, whether they are in South London, elsewhere in the UK, in the Caribbean or across the world.

What you will hear

The Venture FM sound is rooted in reggae, from roots and lovers rock to dancehall, alongside classic and modern soul, R&B and other urban styles. DJs present their own shows with their own selections, so each programme has its own character, and many feature dedications, shout-outs and conversation with listeners. It is the kind of radio that feels personal, with the warmth of a community station and music you will rarely hear on the big commercial networks.
