In 2005, Qfm was launched in El Médano, (Granadilla Costa), Tenerife, with the aim of taking local FM radio, re-inventing it, and then promoting it to a Worldwide audience. The station is multilingual, with daily music shows presented in Spanish, English, German and Italian. Daily updated local and regional cultural information is broadcast in various languages.

Unique musical content is one of Qfm's key ingredients. Latin Jazz, Smooth Jazz, Acid Jazz, Soul, Bossa Nova, World Grooves, Cool Blues, JazzFunk and Balearic Chill make up the output. Worthy unsigned and independant artists are promoted,and we are not influenced by record labels, hyped charts or music industry manipulation. This format is unique to Qfm, and judging by the positive response, has gained the station an immense amount of respect, as well as succeeding with the convertion to radio of many discerning music lovers, previously disenchanted by the over-commercialised music policies and out of date presentation of mainstream radio.

The Canary Islands have recently gained the title of the World's finest year round tourist destination, and are home to an growing core of cosmopolitan and sophisticated residents, both native to the Islands and immigrants from every continent. Qfm feels proud to have been part of this social transition, albeit in a small way.

Whilst here, check out our "Made In Canarias" series, which are artist profiles of some of these island's finest artists.
