Radio is the Theatre of the Mind.

At STEAMELA, radio is not simply a playlist of songs. It is people talking, questioning, storytelling, performing, reporting, interviewing, explaining and imagining together. Some programmes are live. Some are recorded. Some are produced in advance and scheduled. All of them belong to the broadcast.
