About the radio station
Radio X 90s is a sister station of Radio X, owned by Global, dedicated to alternative rock from the 1990s. It launched on 12 September 2024 alongside other Radio X spin-off stations.
You can listen across the UK via Global Player, including the Global Player app and website, and on smart speakers by asking to play the station.
Radio X 90s is also available on DAB in London, and from 24 February 2025 it began broadcasting in Greater Manchester.
The station is built around a clear 90s identity, aiming to bring listeners a focused stream of alternative favourites from that era, with an emphasis on recognisable anthems and a strong rock and indie heritage.
Programming & Music
The sound of Radio X 90s is centred on 90s alternative and indie, with plenty of grunge and Britpop energy. Expect big choruses, crunchy guitars and iconic bands that defined the decade, with a vibe that feels both nostalgic and high-impact.
It is ideal for listeners who want confident, guitar-led music without constant switching between eras. If you are after wall-to-wall 90s anthems that suit commuting, working, or turning up at home, Radio X 90s live is designed to keep the momentum going.
Shows
Radio X 90s includes presenter-led slots as part of its schedule. Global has highlighted Rob Ellis as a host on the station, including a weekday show in the line-up.
