    5 Stars The number one choice for dance and r'n'b 27/05/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Focused on good music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A lot of repeats

    Galaxy 102 in Manchester is the only station I know of that focuses solely on the music. None of this hours of adverts and presenters droning on. I personally like many others tune into Galaxy for good music and thats what I get. There is always the mot recent RnB hits and you can also always catch a good ole classis like Sisqo or Micheal Jackson. Then, as I'm getting ready for a night out all the club tunes are layed nonstop with no interruptions. The presenters are extremely professional, they always know what theyre doing and Nicksy in the morning makes the show what it is. He's funny ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fun all the way

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Saturday nights trancy dance

    I listen to Galaxy fm every morning before taking my children to school. The morning shows are so funny listening to people phone in live on air telling their mad funny stories with the djs taking the mick at any given chance which makes it even more hilarious to listen to. Their are endless amount of competitions all day and night on Galaxy fm i won a pair of Alicia Keys concert tickets for July just gone all i had to do was simply name the song playing backwards and i remember it was Britney Spears Hit Me Baby One More Time. A range of music playing from dance, reggae The adverts they play ... more

    5 Stars Galaxy FM - Kickin' 06/09/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good nationwide reception, good dance music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Mainly dance music, can be repetitive sometimes

    Galaxy FM is available nationwide, and a good thing too. I moved from London to Bristol a few years ago, and missed Kiss FM a great deal, as I was now outside it's reception range, and used to love the dance mixes they put together. Then Galaxy came a long, and their up beat mix of club scene/dance music really livens my day up. They must have a play list to work to because some tunes get a bit more airplay than others, but overall, if you are driving to or from work, or going on a long trip in the car, this is the one to listen to. Reception is good over most of the UK, and there is a good ... more

    5 Stars Galaxy 101, by CW666 09/11/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Best tunes ever, lots of dance stuff

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lots of adverts, interrupting songs

    Galaxy 101 is the best radio station in South Wales and the West. It has a good variety of music, mainly dance, trance, house, garage, etc. In the week they run competitions, usually in the morning, the last one I listened to in the morning was one where you had to guess films, from a clip read out by one of the presenters. In the afternoon they have a cool DJ, Steve Denier, who has mystery workplace of the week, were you have to guess where someone works by having clues. The evening has another DJ who plays the newest songs in the Twin Pack, where you can win a crate of Vodka every Thursday ... more

    4 Stars The New Galazy 105-106 22/09/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages 30 Mins no stop, good music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages repeats some songs ALL the time, dodgy news slots.

    The north east has a brand new radio station (Well not that new now!) The radio station lucky enough to qualify was Galaxy even with much competition from Country stations, Rap stations etc. etc. Now they have the station there making sure they make a BANG with great songs, remixes and some dodgy presenters - have a listen and youll know what i mean - its not easy to put into words. They do play a good mix of music and have some great competitions, however there new slots are at dodgy times and have me completly confused - there at 20 and 50 mins past the hour! What galaxy is able to boast ... more

    5 Stars Great public input 11/07/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great music and cool DJ's

    Disadvantages Disadvantages There ain't any disadvantages!

    Galaxy always seems to get plenty of public input into the show. People can contact the station by E-mail, Fax and phone. They even have a great online show. They usually play any song I E-mail them to play and if they can't they always reply with an apology. Nicksy is great and always makes time to talk to the listeners or have a shoutout for them on the radio. If you ask me this station is great and the music is fab too. The DJ's are great and the music is always up to date and really cool. ... more

    3 Stars A sheep in wolfs clothing 17/12/2000
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages good giveaways - some good music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Generally just another pop station

    Ah Galaxy 101 - whatever went wrong eh? I'm not a lover of commercial radio - radio adverts are six times more annoying than tv ones, but BBC Radio gives you too much chat and lousy DJS so I tend to have this on if I'm in the car etc. Galaxy 101 sees itself as something of a Dance Music Radio Station, but realising that in order to generate mass appeal you have to generate music for the masses the station has weakened its playlist and gone to a sort of watery commercial dance-pop kind of thing. This is where the station falls down - Radio One (not a specialist in any type of music) seems two ... more

    5 Stars Anthony and JoJo 11/02/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great Mixture + Presenters

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Maybe too much Dance Music

    Galaxy FM has got to be my favourite radio station, it broadcasts over the whole of the UK with great sound and signal quality all over. The best part of this radio station has got to be the breakfast show. The breakfast show is presented by ANTHONY + JoJo, the show features lots of great competitions such as 'DUFUS OF THE DAY!'. Dufus of the day is not really a game but just for entertainments sake, the games judge called judge sheran decides who os the days dufus from a selection of 3 that ANTHONY + JoJo present ot her. The judge decides who is the dufus and deals out a punishment. The other ... more

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages none

    Disadvantages Disadvantages 2 many 2 list

    I just cant stand this radio station it is the Bristol one. G A L A X Y 1 0 1 - play a selection of 10 or 11 songs throughout the day, over and over again, and the D J 's just are not funny at all cam and sally in the morning are highly camp and just a complete joke. they have no d j skills either, you sometimes get complete silence for up to a minute, and wonder if they have died or something. This station is just complete pants, and i cannot stand it. ... more
