Former presenters of 96.2 The Revolution, Phil Beckett, Martin Coogan, Cottee, Mike Joyce, Mani, Mick Ferry, Rob Riley, Scott Carey, Kati, Alex Carter, Graeme Hawley and Jeff Hordley, Mark and Leon, Tom and Gnash are intending to launch their own radio station soon.
This page is intended as a source of information and a point of contact for all loyal listeners of 96.2 The Revolution as it was before Friday 22nd August. ..
The playlist will be a mix of 60's to noughties tunes as before, everything from Motown to Punk, northern soul to indie, the common denominator being - cool tunes! Radio Republic is all about the music, not advertising revenue, not the same songs from soulless mainstream artists on constant rotation, with inane celebrity DJ's who are all about their ego...no sir, Radio Republic is about the music.
Extensive background work is ongoing and moving a pace! While we continue with the hard graft needed to ensure we can launch and maintain the station some of our DJ’s are currently doing ‘Radio Republic’ shows kindly hosted by other radio stations. We will keep you up to date with a weekly bulletin of shows and related events - make sure to listen in, enjoy the club nights and check out the stations kind enough to host our DJ’s.
Now what you can do:
1. Very Important: Please add yourself as a friend. Please invite your friends to join. We need large numbers to join the 'Republic' if we are to raise the necessary money to get it off the ground.
2. Spread the word, spread the love. Viva La Republic! (if in doubt see item 1!)
