NPO FunX
Well supported
The Dutch public urban station, on air since 3 August 2002, aimed at listeners between fifteen and thirty-four and built around the music the country's multicultural cities actually play: R&B and hip hop alongside reggae, dancehall, Latin and a long list of crossover styles. It runs city editions for Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht through a partnership of their local broadcasters, SALTO Amsterdam among them, with a national edition since 6 September 2005 and themed internet streams including a dedicated reggae channel. For most Dutch listeners under forty it is where dancehall arrives.
