Radio Emscher Lippe – Dein Urban Radio

Radio Emscher Lippe carries a clear claim in its name with the addition „Dein Urban Radio“ (“Your Urban Radio”). The name refers to the Emscher-Lippe region in the north of the Ruhr area, and this is exactly where the station seeks its audience. The genre hip hop shapes the profile: one can imagine beats with powerful basslines, layers of sampling and rap vocals that come from the streets and clubs of the cities.

The term “Urban” describes more than just a musical style. It stands for a mix of hip hop and related directions that have developed in urban milieus, and for a connection to the everyday lives of young people in the Ruhr area. Anyone who tunes in hears a station that is clearly oriented toward an urban target group.

Further details on broadcasting operations, presenters, broadcast times or founding are not available for this description. What can be stated with certainty is that Radio Emscher Lippe is a German-language hip hop station from North Rhine-Westphalia that is defined by its regional connection and its urban character.
