Chante France is a radio station created in 1994 owned by Groupe HPI, based at Paris (France), and dedicated to French Chansons. It currently has 2 transmitters - in Paris and Beauvais, both broadcasting on 90.9 MHz.
Its slogan is Les plus belles chansons françaises, a MFM Radio-like slogan (Vos plus belles chansons françaises).
History
On 1 January 1994, Chante France was created and later sponsored by four people of the French radio and chanson : Pierre Bellanger (Skyrock), Stéphane Collaro, Eddie Barclay and mainly Hachette Filipacchi Médias. Originally, it should be the first radio station to compete with the popular French radio station Chérie FM (NRJ Group). But given the scarcity of frequencies in France, the preference was given for the development of Skyrock. The challenge was also to meet state requirements concerning the dissemination of French songs. (amendment Pelchat, 1994).
In November 2010, Groupe Orbus (also owning Skyrock) sold the Chante France station to the HPI Groupe (also owning Évasion FM), which kept the French music only format but added presenters and a complete new logo, and plans to evolve the Parisian station nationally in the future.[1]
On 7 March 2013, Chante France launched its first webradio stations : Chante France 60's, Chante France 70's, Chante France 80's, Chante France Comptines and Chante France Émotion.[2]
