Online Radio dominated by the Over 50s
Welcome visit Our WebSite:
http://www.globalcityradio.com " Our problem has been what to recommend to our listeners if they want to move away from the PC or Mobile phone and get better sound quality and instant access to our stations" explains Richard Hannah, Station Chief " We have tried brand after brand and radio after radio the moment anything hits the market. We bought a PURE EVOKE flow to test and we were blown away. We road tested it with a group of Over 50s listeners ( our strongest demographic)"
Simeon Thomas ,52 ( Radio Focus Group from Newport, Wales) went on "In terms of ease of use, functionality and sound quality. It is the set that does everything. DAB, AM/FM. Internet Radio, Streaming music at home off your PC. A single device - set up in under 10 minutes"
Global City Radio grew from a single DJ to 40 in just 4 years and in 2009 listenership peaked at just under 2 million hits to the web site alone. The station attracts an Over 50s audience because of its eclectic output that includes award winning audio drama, Classical, Opera, Blues and Jazz as well as Classical Pop Music. In 2011, Global City signed an exclusive deal with The London Philharmonic Orchestra to provide all of its Classical music out put and Pre Concert Radio Programme Content. Its listeners look for quality output and so the station pushes the boundary of new media with its own private servers carefully designed web sites and 128K - 320K bit rates ( The BBC outputs at half of that bit rate).
Global City Radio can be heard online, on Mobile Phones, on the new PURE All in one Digital Radios also via applications for Ipad such as 'Tune In' and Itunes pre tuned radio section.

Global City Radio is part of newly incorporated Blue Nexus, a Technology and Consulting company based in London, Canada and the USA. Blue Nexus has no business relationship with PURE whatsoever, its recommendations are for the benefit of its many listeners.
