GFM Salvador 90.1

GFM Salvador 90.1 is a station from Salvador, the capital of Bahia, playing adult contemporary and Brazilian music. The programme combines national and international hits with classics, news and information for the city, presented in Portuguese in a smooth and friendly style. The mood is relaxed and refined.

Brazil has one of the largest radio audiences in the world, with AM and FM stations in every city and a strong tradition of news, sport and music on the air, and Brazilian Portuguese is spoken with a warm and rhythmic character that learners find rewarding. The internet lets Brazilians living abroad keep in touch with the sound of home. As a commercial service, it carries advertising and promotional messages between programmes. The stream is delivered as AAC at 48 kbps, a very low bitrate that keeps data use minimal and is adequate for speech, although the sound is thin and not suited to music. It plays in your browser on RadioKite without installation, and you can add it to your favourites.
