Curated radio, not a playlist
Every show on Revolution Radio Online exists for a reason.
Some are built around deep musical knowledge.
Some around mood, atmosphere, or storytelling.
Some are loud. Some are quiet. Some only make sense late at night.
What they share is intention.
Our DJs aren’t chasing trends or filling time.
They’re choosing music they care about — and giving it the space it deserves.
How to use this page
You can browse the shows below, dip into the schedule, or follow your curiosity wherever it leads.
There’s no “right” way to listen.
Some people plan.
Some people stumble into something unexpected and stay.
Both approaches work here.
A quiet reassurance
You don’t need to recognise every name.
You don’t need to listen to everything.
Start with what catches your ear.
The rest will be here when you’re ready.
Different frequencies.
Same signal.

DeePlay MAX
Now that we have greater flexibility in our DeePlay autoplay system, we're looking to provide more entertainment to our listeners even when the pesky human colleagues aren't on air to provide it. Beyond this, we also feel that there are certain events and anniversaries that we should at least mark!
Some will be all day DeePlay MAX autoplaylists, connected to the theme of that event or anniversary, some will be marked with special live shows or features in live shows, and some will be a combination.
EACH OF THESE DAYS WILL HAVE OTHER SHOW FEATURES ADDED, SO BE SURE TO LOOK OFTEN!
