Wie of wat is Radio Nova? We proberen ons te onderscheiden door “eigenzinnig anders!” te zijn. Je zal merken dat we eigenzinnig zijn! Meelopen met de hoop zit er bij ons niet in. Het is niet omdat iets ‘niet meer van deze (radio) tijd is’ dat het niet meer kan of mag. We doen lekker ons goesting en draaien voor jullie de mooiste muziek uit jullie tijd….. omdat jullie dit graag horen. Anders dan andere radiostations … bij ons zal je oldies horen die je nergens meer hoort … maar ook de iets recentere tot hedendaagse hollandse EN vlaamse liedjes passeren bij Radio Nova de revue.
