About WDR COSMO fem:power
WDR COSMO fem:power is one of the thematic music channels of COSMO, the multicultural radio service of Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR), the public broadcaster for North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany. As the name and the stream's metadata suggest, the channel is dedicated to female artists and voices, and it is delivered as a continuous music stream rather than a talk programme.
COSMO is part of the ARD public broadcasting family and is known for its international, intercultural outlook. Its channels sit alongside the main COSMO programme and each focuses on a particular musical idea. The channel's own page is on the WDR website, which is the place to look for current details about its programming, since the broadcaster has been discussing changes to the COSMO brand and those details may change.
Listeners can expect a mix of songs by women from different countries and styles, with little spoken content between tracks. The channel is free to listen to and, as a public broadcaster's service, is not a commercial station. The stream used here is a 128 kbps MP3 feed at 48 kHz stereo, served over HTTPS through the ARD streaming infrastructure, and it works in any browser or app that can play standard MP3 radio streams.
