TunzRadio History

How It All Started

TunzRadio

It begins at a time where internet radio was just a thought and FM stations boomed the market. Shoutcast, Icecast, and Live365 were just coming on the scene and smart phones weren't a thing just yet. Your desktop computer was the way to listen to TunzRadio.com and we held community communication networks using IRC chatrooms. We waited for the dial up connection to finally connect to the internet and listened through Winamp, a media player for your desktop computer.

Over the last 20 years, TunzRadio.com has remained online through private funding by Disc Jockey and local personality Jeff Courtney, a born and raised South Floridian. With the loving support from his parents in entering a DJ career at a very young age, Jeff always had a radio DJ passion. While life choices would place him in another career area, this is the retreat and hobby that keeps him engaged with the passion he has always enjoyed.

"TunzRadio is an awesome business to operate. Internet radio has come such a long way and i'm proud to say we were one of the stations to pioneer internet radio availability to a global audience." - Jeff Courtney

TunzRadio.com is listed in many popular radio station directories today, providing Dance Music hits throughout the globe. Our listeners continue to provide us with the support to keep our station online and heard. We couldn't be more appreciative for the love from the community that loves the dance music and EDM scene.

Thanks for being a part of keeping TunzRadio and dance music alive and growing!
