Listen to radio station RFT Gold, a real gem broadcasting oldies and classics from beautiful Locarno, in Italian Switzerland.
RFT Gold (which belongs to the Radio Fiume Ticino group) is an absolute gem that broadcasts from beautiful Locarno, that city famous for its film festival and its palm trees on the shore of Lake Maggiore.
The Concept: “The Radio of Memories”
Unlike One FM in Geneva, which is all about current hits, RFT Gold specializes in the Oldies/Classic Hits format.
Its motto: “Only the greatest hits.”
The content: It’s a meticulously curated selection of the music that defined the 70s, 80s, and 90s. It’s like a musical encyclopedia of pop and rock, but with a Mediterranean flavor.
“Dolce Vita” Switzerland
Listening to RFT Gold is a very different experience from the stations in Zurich or Bern:
Being in Italian, the narration is warm, passionate, and very fluid.
It conveys a feeling of total relaxation. It’s the kind of music you’d listen to while driving along the winding roads that skirt the Swiss lakes.
