Welcome to dabbl a new user-controlled radio station brought to you by the One Golden Square Labs boffins, playing the best in alternative new music, vintage 90’s and 00’s tracks, spine-tingling live performances and exclusive full stage sets has just gone live across the airwaves. You can be the puppet-master with the station’s playlist in your hands picking tracks from artists such as Kings of Leon, Muse, Kasabian, Arctic Monkey’s, Jamie T, Editors, Vampire Weekend, Temper Trap, Ian Brown and the hottest new tunes from the likes of Delphic and Chapel Club. Vote for the songs you want to hear and the tracks with the most votes are played out within the hour.

Every night you can play promoter booking your very own ‘Ultimate Live Line Up’ voting for tracks in your dream live gig. From the likes of The Clash live in New York in the 80s through to modern day classic sets such as Coldplay in Sydney or The Rolling Stones at Madison Square Gardens; dabbl has it all.

The new radio station launched tonight with an exclusive live stage set from new British rock n roll Lords Kasabian recorded on the Nottingham leg of their recent UK Tour.

    I don’t understand why the Xtreme brand was totally axed in favour of dabbl. It’s more or less the same radio station, except it has live tracks in the evening and you have the ability to vote for what you want to hear played. Other than that – it’s Xtreme in all but name. It seems a lot of effort to change something when it’s still much the same at the very heart of it.

    I think they are testing out the interactive aspect. Note, Dabbl began only playing live tracks: the alternative tracks were added in just as Xtreme closed and 80s launched. I’m expecting there are more things to come, of course with interactivity the focal point.

    Really disappointed that dabbl is only available in London on DAB from 7pm. I listened to Absolute Extreme all the time – bring it back or improve the availability of dabbl!!!
