Ola Radio: live radio uit Marseille

Eeeven...

De naald wordt afgestoft…

Ola Radio

Plural by design, loud.

Marseille's open frequency, hosts from anywhere.

Ola Terreur started it in 2019 and still sets its direction, with Antoine Venco running the operation and Flóra handling the artists; what began as a small community project now carries more than eighty residents, some of them in Marseille and the rest scattered across France and a good way beyond it. Music and talk run around the clock. The station's own description of itself is heterogeneous, plural and singular, and its aim is to be pointed and approachable at the same time.

Electronic music and avant-garde aesthetics are the declared territory, which in practice means 140 SoundSystem on grime and dubstep, Teenage Angst on hardcore, Y laisser des plumes on noise, Femi FM on ambient, and Vera Fatale on club records. Daily strands hold the gaps: Bonjour le soleil in the morning, Brain Off, los alternos, night work after dark.
