107.6 Juice FM is a music station playing chart, dance and rock tracks, and focusing on the tastes and interests of 18 to 34 year olds.

JACK fm is a music radio station which complements existing local commercial radio by appealing mainly to older adults through a distinctive “no format” blend of quality popular pop / rock and classic rock music and specifically avoiding dance and current pop hits, supported by concise local news and information. The style of the radio station is built around a free sounding theme which, for most of the time, replaces traditional highly formatted radio presentation with listener vox-pops and well produced short voice-links which are distinctive, entertaining and different. However, the focus of the station is with 35 to 54 adults, with a male 40 something as its core target listener - traditionally a demographic that have grown up with commercial radio but have increasingly found themselves switching to music services provided by the BBC, especially BBC Radio 2. JACK fm’s speech proposals will also act as a significant point of difference to existing ervices.

Easy Radio is a music based service playing a range of easy listening genres featuring familiar music from 60s to today and drawn from a broad library. A significant element of the music will be from artists with a country crossover influence including rock, folk and blues. Its unique play list embraces the country classics of The Dixie Chicks to Shania Twain, alongside a broad selection of strong lyrical songs from The Eagles to the Beautiful South, Texas and many more. Easy’s speech, with news, relevant information for the audience and an element of interactive programme, will also act as a point of differentiation.

Wales Live is a new digital radio station for Wales. It will be a speech rich service providing international, national and Welsh news, information pertinent to everyday lives, including traffic & travel and weather, and opportunities for local listeners and organisations to air their points of views.
