About Us

WE ARE BACK!

We are Atlantic 252! The biggest and most loved radio station of the 90s.

Think mixtapes. Think school runs. Think bedroom radios under the covers. Think the biggest hits, unforgettable giveaways, and the soundtrack to an entire generation. Think Atlantic 252.

From September 1st 1989, Longwave radio Atlantic 252 became the home of More Music Radio, attracting over 6 million listeners every week and changing the sound of radio forever.

Now we’re back.

Built for the generation that grew up with us, and for a new audience discovering the magic for the first time. Atlantic 252 delivers an all killer, no filler mix of the biggest hits, forgotten favourites, and feel-good anthems from the 80s, 90s and early 00s.

With legendary station voice Jim Merkel back behind the mic, the spirit of the original Atlantic 252 lives on: bigger songs, bigger personality, and more music.

This is more than nostalgia. It’s the return of a true radio icon.

Atlantic 252 is back, turning up the volume, bringing the memories flooding back, and creating the soundtrack to a whole new generation.
