HotFM

HotFM has been broadcasting from Corralejo to the north of the island for around three years now. However, last week it came out from underground and held a party to celebrate the opening of its new studios in the la Bocaina building behind Chablis.

In October the radio station got some new owners in the form of Al and Val fro AVM Kitchens, me and Mad Mik. One of our first objectives was to give the DJ's premises that they deserved and we feel that we have fulfilled this.

The new local at No 35 has a reception area, a transmission studio and a separate recording studio to develop adverts and jingles.

At the launch party, Mad Mik played the ever gracious host and provided us with some nibbles.

Lots of local business people and listeners came along for a drink and were invited to go live on air to promote their services. Lots of people took advantage of their 15 minutes of fame including....

Bill and Michelle from Red Mountain and .....

... Trading Post Trev - no stranger to a studio! - who took the opportunity to announce the launch of a charity CD.

and of course some people you just can't keep away from a mike....

.. and talking of DJ's here's Trev making a pointed comment - about Maitland from Whereabouts?

and Kennie, being his usual charming self...

not forgetting - and how could we - the Sara and Claire show!

There were some old friends - hello John Birch - and some new ones - hello Paul, a holidaymaker dragged into the party!

and although there was plenty of booze to go around - Alan just couldn't resist trying to nick Val's!

and all through this the DJ's stoically carried on, first Kennie, then Neil and ending up with Snowy - well done guys.

HotFM are currently broadcasting on 104.6 in Corralejo and 96.6 across most of the north of the island and some of Lanzarote. Our next plan is to reach Caleta as well. You can also listen to us on the internet. So tune in and listen to a mix of 60's, 70's and 80's music as well as the best of the rest. We also have a range of competitions, horoscopes, weather, news - both UK/Ireland and local, and details of events going on.
