Free Internet Radio

Free Internet Radio (FIR) is a Netherlands-based internet radio station broadcasting from Peins, a small village in the province of Friesland, that is known for its wide-ranging playlist that bridges the gap between classic mainstream hits and heavier genres. It streams music over the internet rather than broadcasting on traditional FM or AM frequencies. The station is unique for its “mixed bag” approach to programming. The station’s music format focuses on alternative and rock genres, though playlists may include a mix beyond just hits. FIR often plays “deeper cuts” and tracks that rarely get airtime on commercial Dutch FM stations like Qmusic or Sky Radio.
