Yep, shitloads. Between leaving work in Slough and driving the 25miles back to my place in South London, I go through at least a dozen different pirate station areas...Passion, Point Blank, Flex, Rinse etc etc...all playing nothing but EDM. Flex on a Friday drive time is particularly sweet if they have the jungle show on.
And the bird who does the Passion breakfast show on a Sunday is always spangled from the night before

My car stereo only holds 6 program stations, so it's Passion, Point Blank, Flex, Rinse, Magic and Radio4.
Does me well

Up until today I got FIP (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIP_%28radio_station%29) in my room which was awesome, but I woke up to it just being static this morning
Hopefully I can tune into it again... nothing else good on that I can get signal for

Yeah probably. But this one literally played the best music ever. Didn't hear a single mainstream track the whole time I was tuned in, unless you count those that had been redone as an instrumental by some big band
First World Problems
EDIT: Found a live stream on the internet

Radio Frequency deserves a mention, even though it also plays hip-hop and dub 80-90% of the output is top rate EDM
