Tune into Summer: FM-world's New Beach Radio Bundle

Nostalgia for Summer Past

A recent post on Talkmedia featuring footage from RSI (Swiss Radio and Television) sparked a wave of nostalgia. The video showcased scenes from Rimini, Italy, in the summer of 1979 - a tableau straight out of Umberto Eco's "Diario Minimo."

For radio enthusiasts, the soundtrack was particularly evocative, featuring a mix of beach loudspeaker announcements and broadcasts from the era's pioneering italian private radio stations, including the iconic Radio Capodistria from Jugoslavia (of all places).

Rimini was, of course, the 'low/middle-class' beach destination of choice in the '60s and later. Then Italians became richer and preferred Sardinia, but that is another story.

The Evolution of Beach Soundtracks

Anyway, the perfect beach relaxation has always been accompanied by a fitting musical backdrop. In the past, this came from traditional radios. Today, we have apps connected to Bluetooth speakers or wireless headphones.
But what made the old-school radio experience special was the element of discovery - tuning into unfamiliar stations while on holiday, hearing new voices, and breaking away from the predictable.

FM-world's Summer Bundle

To recreate that spirit of discovery, FM-world has curated a "Summer Radio Bundle." This selection of "beach radios" is easily accessible from our app's homepage or your car's dashboard by selecting "Estate"
