    Billboard and print show the Stereoheads kneeling for their new master

    From now on you can hear the world's most popular DJ on Radio 538. Van Buuren knows how to push people's buttons and switch them on to the ultimate 538-sound - this is reason enough for the iconic Stereoheads to kneel and set their buttons ready. In addition, Radio 538 has been nominated for an International Dance Music Award, as the 'Best Radio Station Worldwide'. Previously IDMA named Armin the 'Best DJ Worldwide'. Armin + Radio 538, a golden combination.

    Turn me On. Radio=538

    Growing the No. 1 radio brand with two rebel mascottes

    BSUR is the proud advertising and design partner of Radio 538 since 2000. At that time, it was the No. 5 radio station, but the leader among teens. Our common goal: build the biggest and baddest radio brand out there for everyone that's young at heart. 538 added star-DJ's on all major shifts. We designed an identity to appeal to a broader audience, amplified their purple and green flag colors and added the now iconic logo to the mix. Early on, we launched the equally iconic theme Radio=538, claiming the position of mental marketleader. Cut to 2012, where the brand has been No. 1 for most of the past five years. And the call to action is "Turn me On", celebrated by the seriously rebellious 538 Stereoheads, living large and loud on the continuous beats of their radio helmets. The Stereoheads rock out on TV, online, outdoor, in cinemas and at events, further growing the No. 1 marketshare. Radio 538 proves that it's good to grow, as long as you never grow up.
