Radio Petit Son is an independent French web radio station founded in 2020 by David Valéry and DJ Tom B, two passionate fans of electronic music, production, and club culture.
Born during lockdown with live broadcasts from a private locati...on, the station has since developed a unique musical universe inspired by French Touch, Ibiza nights, vinyl, and the underground house scene.
Our programming accompanies different moments of the day, from morning chill-outs to the deeper sounds of the night. We primarily seek tracks belonging to the following genres: Deep House, House, Minimal House, Atmospheric House, Organic House, Chill-out, Downtempo, and elegant Tech House.
We are particularly drawn to tracks with a distinct identity: refined production, organic textures, nocturnal atmospheres, deep bass, subtle melodies, and arrangements that allow the music to breathe. We love tracks that can create a mood as well as get people dancing.
We generally avoid overly commercial productions, aggressive EDM drops, excessively formulaic tracks, heavily distorted sounds, and tracks whose mixing or mastering doesn't allow for comfortable radio airplay.
Selected tracks can be added to Radio petit son's programming and played in rotation for several weeks, depending on their alignment with our editorial guidelines and feedback from our team. Artists can listen to the radio station directly on petitson.com to follow our programming and discover the platform in which their track might be played.
We also develop a Radio petit son Spotify playlist. When a track fits our selection criteria, it can be added to this playlist in addition to its radio airplay.
For our absolute favorites, we may also consider featuring them on our social media channels through a post, a story, an artist profile, or by sharing the track. Our communities and our playlist are still growing, but each selection is made manually and receives genuine editorial attention.
Our feedback focuses primarily on the track's artistic identity, its coherence with current house and electronic music scenes, the production quality, the effectiveness of the intro, the progression, the track's balance, and its potential for radio airplay or playlist placement.
Radio Petit Son distinguishes itself through a deliberately independent and selective approach. We're not looking for quantity, but the right track at the right time. Each track is listened to carefully by musicians and DJs with over twenty years of experience in music, Parisian clubs, and electronic music culture.
Fine textures, muffled rhythms, a house sound that breathes.
Here, every detail matters. Even the silence.
