About Qmusic Nederland
Qmusic Nederland is the main national station of the Qmusic brand in the Netherlands. It is a commercial pop radio service playing current chart hits alongside well-known favourites from recent decades, with a young, upbeat style and presenter-led programming in Dutch.
Qmusic started in 2005 when it replaced Noordzee FM on the national frequency package, and it is operated by DPG Media. Details of the current programme lineup, presenters and features can be found on the Qmusic website, which also hosts the brand's app and information about its other channels.
Expect a mix of international pop, dance and Dutch hits, with news and traffic information, competitions and light talk between songs. The audience is mostly younger adults who want familiar, energetic music through the day. This stream is delivered over HTTPS as the high-quality AAC+ version at around 96 kbps in stereo, a good fit for phones, computers and smart speakers. Qmusic also runs several themed online channels for particular decades and genres.
