BBC Radio One’s sister station was launched in August 2002 and broadcasts via DAB and the web. 1Xtra is targeted at a younger audience and plays mostly urban music, as in hip hop, grime, bassline, dubstep, garage, RnB and bhangra. A lot of its DJs/presenters share a show on BBC Radio One, like Benji B, Nihal or Toddla T.
