ARTE Radio

ARTE Radio was created in Paris in 2002 by the European Cultural TV channel ARTE. A very unique project, arteradio.com is now a creative reference for radios worldwide and a “school of sound” for young producers.

A web radio on demand, ARTE Radio.com only produces original creations (features, dramas, short pieces) with no format, no commentary and no music. Based on the emotional qualities of sound, these audio clips are carefully crafted to play as a direct address to the listener. They build a narrative about intimate or social issues. They are sound postcards or poetic pieces, features or dramas, political satires or plain silly stuff.

Beginners or professionals alike, the authors record and edit their pieces under supervision by the ARTE Radio team. Every author is paid, and all 2000 creations can be listened to or downloaded freely from the website. They are distributed under Creative Commons through podcasts, our mobile apps, our SoundCloud, community radios, media partners or blogs.

A small project of three employees, ARTE Radio has won major international awards including Prix Italia for best radio drama and Prix Europa 4 times for best drama, best documentary and best online feature. Coproducing pieces with the BBC, Deutschland Radio or NHK, ARTE Radio also produces web series (New York Minute), conducts workshops for professionals and collective listening sessions around the world.
