Radio Roberto Canada is a music program featuring only songs by emerging artists from Italy and abroad. Radio Roberto Canada offers an eclectic mix of music and entertainment, different from that of mainstream radio stations, all playing only the same 20-30 songs. The program is streamed from Toronto, Canada by TorontoCast.

TorontoCast, and the programs it hosts, are fully licensed by The Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada, known simply as SOCAN. Torontocast is responsible for all legal, financial and technical aspects of its broadcast services under its agreements with SOCAN.

Radio Roberto Canada is a non-profit program. You will not hear ads on this station for which any compensation was given.  We pay a monthly fee to TorontoCast to help cover licensing and royalty payments to SOCAN. If you wish to make a donation, please feel free to do it via PayPal.

SOCAN has deals with all the major rights organizations in the world, so our stream is legal and artists and composers are compensated, even if the artists aren’t Canadian. From the SOCAN website:

A SOCAN license gives you permission to use copyright-protected musical works from anywhere around the world. Through agreements with international performing rights organizations, SOCAN issues licenses for all music used in public by businesses in Canada, no matter to which society the creators belong. SOCAN then transfers the corresponding monies to the appropriate society, and vice versa.

More information about licensing can be found at Torontocast and SOCAN.
