interfm (89.7MHz) will celebrate its 30th anniversary in April 2026. On this occasion, we are announcing a 30th-anniversary logo and establishing a new philosophy: 'Defiant, with the Finest.'
[30 Years and Brand Evolution]
Since its opening, interfm has established slogans that redefine the value of radio for each era:
- Tokyo's No.1 Music Station
- The Real Music Station
- Find Your Colors
The current 'Find Your Colors' will continue as a message that affirms diverse sensibilities and choices.
On the other hand, the newly established 'Defiant, with the Finest.' is not just a slogan but a new philosophy (corporate philosophy) that defines what interfm should be. It clarifies the balance between an unconventional attitude and high quality, inheriting the values accumulated through previous slogans while elevating the brand to the next stage.
[Meaning of the New Philosophy]
- Defiant: An attitude or person who sticks to their beliefs without being bound by authority or common sense.
- Finest: The highest quality, sophistication.
'Defiant, with the Finest.,' composed of these two words, indicates the intention to dare to deviate from common sense and to establish all of it with high quality. It is a determination to accomplish both simultaneously.
In addition to a commitment to music, we aim to stimulate the intellectual curiosity of listeners and lead them to new discoveries. This philosophy is both a message to the outside world and a standard that interfm itself will continue to uphold, making 'creative deviation' x 'high quality' the premise for all future content.
[Meaning Imbued in the 30th Anniversary Logo]
The 30th-anniversary logo depicts the number '30' with lines that are intentionally not closed. This represents the desire for radio to remain an entity that is always open to listeners. The waveform overlaid on the logo represents the live feeling of voice and live broadcasting. 'Connecting through voice'—a keyword unique to radio.
