Ubiquity Radio

We are primarily a retro soul, funk and jazz station broadcasting the coolest tunes, wherever you are in the world, 24, 7, 365. We try to play lesser known and rare tunes as well as the classics, however, we are also keen to feature new and indie bands that adhere to the retro styles. Therefore, our music policy means that you will hear a hugely eclectic range of sounds; Major Lance to Gil Scott-Heron to Jimmy Smith to Cal Tjader and everything in between.

History

Paul Wilson is the founder of Ubiquity Radio however his love affair with radio was a journey that probably began in 1971, when at the age of 12 Paul discovered Radio Luxembourg and quickly realised that Luxembourg was the only radio station that would regularly play American soul music. But it was to be another four years before Paul through his subscription to Blues & Soul magazine, heard about the Radio London Saturday morning soul show hosted by the now legendary Robbie Vincent. Paul became an avid listener to Robbie throughout the seventies and eighties which also saw the advent of the illegal stations; JFM, Radio Invicta, Kiss, London Weekend Radio (LWR) and Horizon, all pirate radio stations dedicated to soul, funk, jazz, reggae. These stations provided a much needed service as mainstream radio in the 80’s would often ignore soul music unless it was ‘in the charts’. Ubiquity Radio is fully licensed Internet radio station.

What could be the reason there is no sound?

1. Make sure your speakers and the media player are not muted :) Not an uncommon problem ;)
2. Please try again in another browser, preferably Chrome, Firefox and when using a windows media player option Internet Explorer.
3. Try another stream type clicking: windows media player or external player as alternative
4. Be patient, some radiostations load within 10-20 seconds due to high traffic issues.
5. If you do not have any flash player we automatically load the second best player, so again be patient.
6. If the stream doesn't start automatically please click the play button or the mp3 option on the right, please retry 1,2 or 3 times. Most of the times this works.
7. If you are using a windows media player, this will mostly only work in Internet Explorer.
8. A radiostation might be temporarily unavailable due to several reasons. If your favorite station is not working right now, please try again in a few moments.
9. The media player isn't showing/working in your browser, check below what you can do about it
10. Try another computer or device (tablet, phone etc).
11. Some radiostations have limited rights for international broadcasting. Some stations only broadcast in their own country. For example BBC in the UK and lots of stations in the US. If you really want to listen use a proxy server from that specific country to solve this problem.
12. Report this issue using our Broken Link page or send an email to [email protected]. We are able to see if there is something wrong.
