History

MDR Jump started broadcasting on 1 January 2000, [1] initially with a programme mainly directed at the 14–29-year-old age bracket, similar to sister station MDR Sputnik. Due to diminishing listenership, this approach was reevaluated and changed to instead appeal to 20–49-year-olds in August 2011. [2] The new programming put a stronger focus on information more specifically tailored to its regional audience, as well as an expanded selection basis for its range of featured music, which now also included songs from the two previous decades, rather than just the current Top 40. [2] This new direction proved to be successful; as of 2019, MDR Jump is the seventeenth most popular radio station in Germany. Within the territory of former East Germany, it is only surpassed by MDR Sachsen  [ de ]. [3]

Programme

The regular programming of MDR Jump is broadcast Monday to Friday from 5 o'clock to midnight and on weekends and holidays from 6 o'clock to midnight. During the remaining time, SWR 3's shared overnight programme ARD-Popnacht is aired. [4]

MDR JUMP Morningshow

As of 2020, the regularly featured segments include, but are not limited to: [6]
