Pure Dance, the 2000s dance music station, is set to relaunch this September on small-scale DAB in Milton Keynes and Loughborough.
It will also be available via Radioplayer, TuneIn and smart speakers.
The station first launched in 2004 and quickly became a central part of UK club culture, reaching close to a million monthly listeners while supporting music launches and campaigns with major labels.
It was home to well-known DJs including Stu Allan, Slipmatt, Lisa Lashes and Matt Darey before going off air in 2006.
Station founder Alex Kinch said: “The end of Pure Dance always felt like unfinished business. What started as us uploading archive shows turned into a full rebuild. Dance music deserves specialist radio made by people who live and breathe it – that’s what we’re bringing back.”
Confirmed shows for the relaunch include Paul Van Dyk, Above & Beyond, R3HAB, Nicky Romero, MK, Defected and Toolroom Radio, alongside specialist programming from Slipmatt, Solarstone, Tube & Berger, Rebūke, Laura van Dam, Anjunadeep and He.She.They.
Pure Anthems and Non-Stop Pure Dance will also return, while the UDJ strand will be revived to provide a platform for new DJs to showcase their work.
