The 2017 Radio Revival Festival will commence at 8:00 AM Beijing time on July 30, featuring 15 radio hosts from across the world who will launch a 24-hour continuous live radio broadcast from the Sahara. Through the power of radio waves, they will connect the desert with the city, allowing listeners to feel the pure energy of music. The event encourages people to take a break from the overwhelming flood of information, rediscover the joy of memorable radio moments, and quietly enjoy two hours of radio companionship. It’s also a way to support DJs who are dedicated to creating high-quality content and to pay tribute to pirate radio.
Just like the movie *Pirate Radio*, the "Radio Revival Festival" is a utopia for dreamers and freedom-loving DJs. Each host has carefully curated their own radio program. The 24-hour non-stop live broadcast will allow this wandering desert-based radio station to echo through the skies of the city, bringing listeners the most authentic, captivating, and resonant sounds.
Sahara 24Hours of PirateRadio Live Broadcast Schedule
The hosts of the Radio Revival Festival have been preparing for days across various locations in Morocco, immersing themselves in the local customs and culture. During their travels, local Moroccan musicians specially came to exchange musical ideas with the hosts. The Moroccan musicians’ exceptional skills captivated the hosts, with every strum of the strings resonating deeply and stirring emotions. Such classic works are exactly the kind of sound that pirate radio needs. The hosts will cherish these beautiful moments and share them with their listening audience.
Across the cities of Morocco, the sky is a clear blue with white clouds drifting by — purity defines the city’s vibe, free from any impurities. This is exactly the kind of urban atmosphere that the "Radio Revival Festival" aims to promote: less noise, more purity; less extravagance, more nature. In such an environment, the hosts’ minds become more open, allowing even more inspiration to flow into their live broadcasts. A 24-hour non-stop broadcast demands a lot of creativity, and these places have certainly lived up to that expectation.
The vast Sahara Desert fills every host who stands upon it with awe for the wonders of nature. In the eyes of Sanmao, every grain of sand carries a wealth of emotion, and the desert is an ocean of longing. The reason for holding the event here is that in the movie, the DJs broadcast from a drifting pirate radio station in the North Sea, while the Radio Revival Festival’s hosts broadcast from an emotional pirate radio station adrift in feelings. Responding to the sea of reality with an ocean of emotion — this unique and perfectly fitting tribute to the classics is both creative and meaningful. They also hope to use the radio broadcast to carry stories from the ocean of emotions across thousands of miles to friends listening in the city, letting the sound waves spread wonderful vibes everywhere they go.
