Radio Middelkerke

Radio Middelkerke is a local station from Middelkerke, a coastal municipality on the Belgian North Sea coast in West Flanders. Its programming is aimed at the audience of the region and combines music with a strong focus on reporting from the town and its surroundings. The website describes the station as a round-the-clock feel-good programme with plenty of local information.

Musically, Radio Middelkerke relies on catchy, upbeat tracks. The show “Radio Middelkerke Non Stop Feelgood Music” stands for this focus, and in the evening a DJ also plays a mix show. The most recently played tracks on the website show a mixture of disco- and soul-inspired classics and newer pieces, which, as with many local stations, is rather broadly oriented than fixed on a single subgenre.

A special feature is the share of local topics. The station runs its own section for news from Middelkerke and also reports on events and activities in the town, which makes it attractive as an information source for listeners in the municipality.
