RTRFM is The Sound Alternative: an independent, non-profit community radio station that provides an alternative voice for Perth through innovative music and talks programming. RTRFM provides a platform for local news and issues, with a strong focus on the arts, culture, social justice, politics and the environment. We champion local music and support musical diversity through 50+ specialist music programs and a huge program of events. The range of sounds and voices heard on RTRFM is reflective of our role as a community radio station. RTRFM is an outlet to people in the community who might not otherwise have access to broadcasting. This allows us to broadcast music and information that cannot be found anywhere else. But RTRFM doesn’t just reflect the community by giving its members a voice – we are also funded by the community. Through subscriptions, donations, sponsorship and attendance at RTRFM fundraising events, the community is what keeps us on air.
