VIBRA TV

VIBRA is a brand used for a variety of music programmes broadcast on NETV, GTV, Mercia and ESS. Originally Powerstation, it was originally one of the three brands used by the re-branded Spiral/Six Mix in December 2006 (Six Club, Six Mix and Powerstation), however was demoted to a programme title on that channel in late 2007. It was later incorporated into the then Emoa-owned ESS in 2008, and formed part of the Network's overnight service in 2009.

When part of Six Mix, Powerstation was treated as a channel in its own right. It was the only part of the channel that was broadcast from Emoa's Oban Studios in Northern Scotland (wheras both Six Club and Six Mix were broadcast from Newcastle). It broadcast from 01.30-06.00 on Monday-Thursday mornings, and 01.00-05.45am on Friday-Sunday mornings. It used the viewer selection jukebox format in its entirety run, and featured music from many genres.

The current Networked editions usually feature a chart countdown, a set genre or a selection of music videos picked by a particular celebrity. From August 2010, the original jukebox format will return on the ESS schedules.

It was moved from Oban to Birmingham in May 2009. Originally produced by Emoa Productions, the programme passed to the Flux Productions brand in June 2010. Following Emoa's failure to sell Flux Productions, Powerstation was to return to the Emoa Productions brand, however it was to be re-named as VIBRA, taking the name of Emoa Radio's station Vibra, from 13 June 2011. All other Flux Productions ceased as of 10 June 2011.
