Ο Μελωδία 99.2 είναι ένας από τους πρωτοπόρους ραδιοφωνικούς σταθμούς της Αθήνας που καθιερώθηκε ως ο κορυφαίος σταθμός έντεχνου ελληνικού ρεπερτορίου από το 1991. Η επιτυχημένη πορεία του μέχρι σήμερα τον κατατάσσει σταθερά στις πρώτες θέσεις ακροαματικότητας του αθηναϊκού κοινού. Στηρίζει το ελληνικό τραγούδι των σπουδαίων δημιουργών και των μεγάλων ερμηνευτών, έχοντας πάντα τη ματιά του στο αύριο. Συμβάλλει στην εδραίωση του έντεχνου ελληνικού τραγουδιού, τόσο μέσα από τα Μεγάλα Κλασικά που φροντίζει να φτάνουν και στα νεότερα ακροατήρια, όσο και μέσα από τα τραγούδια που παρουσιάζουν οι Φωνές του Σήμερα, οι οποίες καθορίζουν το νέο ρεύμα της ελληνικής μουσικής.
