ddr. Guiding principles

1. ddr. seeks to provide a platform and advocate for music, artists and conversations that are not given voice in the established media.
2. ddr. champions Irish-based artists, DJs and music makers. We want to expose you to the quality of those working on this island and the sound of Ireland’s underground.
3. ddr. is an alternative radio space for music lovers. We favour the live and interactive.
4. ddr. believes in an open and free internet & rejects the logic of surveillance capitalism.
5. ddr. is member owned and controlled, not run for profit. We are independent and work outside of commercial, institutional and political influences; this allows us to be uncompromising in the ideas and music we put on air.
6. ddr. seeks to operate transparently, encouraging the community to understand the
7. practices and structures of the station, and discouraging hierarchical power structures.
8. ddr. is based in Dublin but not limited by geography. We want to participate in and foster connections with organisations and platforms both in Ireland and internationally.
9. ddr. wants to build an open, inclusive and diverse community where differing points of view and opinions are respected. We do not tolerate sexism, homophobia, transphobia,racism, classism or other forms of discrimination.
