The Beat Playlist


The Beat was a rebranded name used by several Canadian radio stations, primarily focused on rhythmic and contemporary hit music. Notable stations that carried "The Beat" branding included CFBT-FM in Vancouver, which launched in 2002, and CKBT-FM in Kitchener, which adopted the name in 2004. Over time, some of these stations transitioned to new brand identities, such as Virgin Radio or other formats. Despite rebranding, "The Beat" name remains associated with vibrant, youthful formats emphasizing pop, hip-hop, and dance music. The stations often targeted younger demographics in urban markets.
