One World Music Radio, bringing the world together through music and positivity!
Supporting the independent Artist
The Story of One World Music Radio
At One World Music Radio, we believe that lines on a map should never divide us. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to bring the entire world together through the only truly universal language there is—music. Armed with unyielding positivity, we have built a dedicated broadcasting platform specifically designed to uplift independent and lesser-known artists who are traditionally underrepresented on commercial radio.
​
We specialize in genres that soothe the soul, inspire the mind, and heal the spirit. Our station is the global home for New Age music and its related genres, including contemporary instrumental, ambient, acoustic, neo-classical, smooth jazz, piano, and electronic music.
Our Journey: From the UK to the Island of Love
Our story is driven by a shared passion for broadcasting, healing, and global connection.

The Foundation (1997–2004): Steve Sheppard began his career with local BBC radio as a sports presenter in January 1997, later moving to the BBC World Service to cover news. After working across various commercial and hospital radio stations, Steve launched The Perfect Remedy Hour in 1998—one of the UK’s very first New Age music radio shows. By 2004, he transitioned to the exciting frontier of internet radio, culminating in the creation of his own station, One World Radio, in 2010.

The Perfect Partnership (2010–2013): Chrissie Sheppard’s radio journey began in 2010 when Steve interviewed her about her work in aromatherapy. Following a dedicated career in nursing and holistic therapies, Chrissie realized that music offered a powerful new vehicle to spread her healing message to a global audience. In July 2013, One World Music Radio was officially born. That same year, Steve and Chrissie married and even had the honor of introducing their new station to Princess Anne at a local event, leaving her thoroughly impressed.

Soaring from Cyprus (2014–Present): A year later, Steve and Chrissie exchanged the UK for the sunnier climes of Cyprus, the Island of Love. This move marked a period of meteoric growth. From their new Mediterranean home, the station's popularity soared to dizzying heights. They established the world’s leading Top 100 album and singles charts for the genre and founded their own highly anticipated annual music awards.​
