Sabrosita 590 AM

Sabrosita 590 AM (XEPH) is a Mexico City station playing tropical and Latin favourites, on the AM dial. The music includes salsa, cumbia, merengue, bolero, danzón and other rhythms that are loved across Latin America, with classic songs and well-known orchestras and singers that bring back memories for older listeners. The name sabrosita, a diminutive of the word for tasty, expresses the idea of music with flavour and spice, and the station presents itself as a cheerful companion for dancing, cooking and conversation.

The station is operated by NRM Comunicaciones, a Mexican broadcasting company, and it has long been identified with the 590 kHz frequency in the capital region. AM stations like this one have a particular place in Mexican radio, as they preserve formats that younger FM stations seldom play. The online stream widens the audience to Mexicans abroad and to Latin music fans anywhere in the world. As a commercial service, it carries advertising and local announcements. The stream is delivered as AAC+ at 32 kbps, a very low bitrate that reflects its AM heritage and uses minimal data. It plays in your browser on RadioKite, and you can add it to your favourites.
