TD1 Radio

TD1 Radio lives broadcasting from the UK. TD1 Radio was established on 1st December 2008 as an internet-only station with the aim of providing more listening choices in the Borders. With local radio and TV services being cut back, They felt it was time to give something back to the Borders by establishing a community-led and operated radio station.

All their contributors are volunteers and do not get paid for the work they do. The station operates as a non-profit making body, ensuring that any monies raised are plowed back into it to keep it on the air.

In the 1980s and 1990s, “oldies” meant the 15 years from the birth of rock n roll to the beginning of the singer-songwriter era of the early 1970s, or about 1955 to 1972, although this varied and some stations chose 1950–1969.^{[citation needed]} After 2000, 1970s music was increasingly included, and early 1980s music is beginning to also be called “oldies”, though the term “classic hits” is used to distinguish the “new” oldies (the Generation X oldies) from the “old” oldies (the Baby Boomer oldies).

Folk music includes both traditional music and the genre that evolved from it during the 20th-century folk revival. The term originated in the 19th century but is often applied to music that is older than that. Some types of folk music are also called world music.
