4ZZZ FM 102.1 Brisbane

Public Radio 4ZZZ

Public Radio 4ZZZ

Throughout its history, 4ZzZ has been renowned for supporting local music and artists, putting on great events, presenting news and opinions not found in mainstream media and providing support to our local community. 

When tuning into 102.1fm you will hear many musical genres including rock, hip hop, indie, dancehall, punk, dub, reggae, noise, electronica, ska and drum & bass. 

4ZZZ is unique in that we don't use playlists to control what music hits the airwaves. When announcing station volunteers select all of the music you hear.

Announcers' are however required to meet certain quotas to ensure adequate representation is given to local, new and Australian music and music with female content.

Most of the music played on 4ZZZ comes from our huge music library which is constantly expanding with new music (predominantly local and Australian) being added every week.

Everyday our subscribers are given the chance to win great prizes, another way we give back to our community.

FUNDING
The costs of running a radio station are immense.
All our fundraising is done independently and the major sources of income for the station are subscriptions, promotions, and 
4ZZZ events 

Our subscribers are what keeps us afloat. 
In these times of media consolidation they understand the only way to have an independent, accessible and democratic media is for the people to own the media themselves.

PHILOSOPHY
The station's motto is AGITATE, EDUCATE, ORGANISE. 

At 4ZzZ we challenge the status quo by providing radio access for community members and issues not often represented in the mainstream media.
We support local bands, artists and initiatives, and independent news and current affairs while training and empowering our volunteers.
