Heart FM

"Cape Town's beat"

Going for a twofer in South Africa today is Heart FM, another independent commercial radio station that forms what I would argue is our first modern hits-based example (at last!). Beginning life in 1997 as P4 radio, Heart FM's rebranding in 2006, according to the history tab on its website, saw it adopting a more "commercial mix" in order to cater to a more "diverse audience". This has resulted in its current state as an adult contemporary music radio station which broadcasts to Cape Town and additionally covers large swathes of the South African Western Cape Province including the Drakenstein, West Coast, Swartland, Overberg and Overstrand regions. According to their website on the Advertising page, Heart FM's target audience appears to be peoples living within Cape Town and beyond in the age bracket of 25-49 years of age.

In terms of popularity, the same website lists about 797,000 listeners, 627,000 of which are in Cape Town alone. The station also claims an exclusive listenership figure of about 408,000- that's as many people who listen to Heart FM and Heart FM alone. Tying together its seeming popularity is its staggering 297k followers on Facebook, beating out every other radio station to so far feature on this blog- so it probably goes without saying, but Cape Town's Heart FM is very much popular and successful.

How does this popularity actually translate into the running of the station itself, however? Well, naturally, I listened to them in order to find out for myself:

Between 17:00-18:00PM SAST (South African Standard Time), I listened to the "Drive 326 with Suga" live show. Immediately the most unique thing about this particular show when compared to the other station's reviewed thus far on this blog is that "Drive 326 with Suga" featured no less than three presenters, which affected the link construction in a very interesting way. For starters, there are very few links in the show itself, spaced far across several songs, three at least, but when there are links placed inbetween, as opposed to being two minutes or less as has been standard so far, Heart FM's links are no less than three-to-four minutes each. This is obviously to account for the number of presenters so that they all may have something to say, and for the most part, these links carry a very chill, calm conversational vibe to them, usually involving a game of sorts (one of the ones I caught was a word-guessing game) or topical subjects like this year's New Years' resolutions, as well as promotions for local events. There may also be snippets of local news for Cape Town, and every quarter hour without fail there's a traffic and travel update- which, Cape Town being one of South Africa's larger cities, makes a good amount of sense.

Heart FM claims to be Cape Town's no.1 radio station, and with so many exclusive listeners living in the city, keeping them regularly updated on city traffic seems a smart move. Finally, there's a five-minute-long sports segment around the half hour mark. Altogether, the links for Heart FM are constructed in a way that has them feel very engaging due to the casual and entertaining tone. It helps that these links also help the station feel like it belongs in Cape Town with the regular local news and traffic updates it provides.

So what of the actual music? The station does indeed play a majority of contemporary tracks, but mixes things up with older tracks as well, with tracks like Chris Brown's Summer Too Hot (2023) being played alongside the likes of Eve and Alicia Keys' Gangsta Lovin' (2002) on the regular. While this means Hot FM doesn't play exclusively contemporary music, it does address the diversity aspect of their mission statement and the upper limit of their target audience- these tracks clearly exist to satisfy the older amongst Heart FM's target demographic.

(So, even with our first actual contemporary radio station reviewed on this blog, the music selection isn't exclusively modern trend-setters!)

With its focus on a modern-classical mix of music that caters to nearly all ages, regular local news and traffic reports and entertaining inter-song chats, debates and conversations, it's easy to see why Heart FM is as popular and beloved as it is, especially given its loyal listener base. It's relatable and accessible, and feels like it's a core part of the city of Cape Town- indeed, its very beating Heart.
