Description
Yurd FM presents itself as "Yurd FM - Dogma musiqi dalgasi!", the native music wave, with the motto "Illar gedar, Sanat qalar, Yurd FM - Dayarlar yasadar". Its About page says the station began broadcasting in Baku on 18 November 2022 and works in the format of Azerbaijani folk music, mugham, mahni, tasnif, instrumental music, asiq music and national dance music, presenting both the great figures of Azerbaijani music and contemporary performers. It states its purpose as helping the younger generation to hear and love Azerbaijani folk genres and promoting contemporary folk performers on air. The site is three pages and also carries a video stream and recent videos.

Artists
Sampled twice from the station's own Icecast status feed: "C.Cahangirov xoru - Sansiz", the Cahangir Cahangirov choir, and "Huseyn Nagiyev - Naxislarin raqsi". Both are Azerbaijani art and folk music, matching the stated format.

Contact route
An Alaqa page giving a street address in Baku, a telephone number, a separate WhatsApp number, and two email addresses, one general and one for advertising, plus a social-media block. Four independent routes to a human.

Era
Part of the point: it says it carries both the corifei, the great established figures, of Azerbaijani music and contemporary performers, so it spans the recorded history of the national repertoire rather than one decade.

Music
Azerbaijani national and folk music only, in its own words "Yalniz Milli Musiqi", covering mugham, asiq music, tasnif, instrumental and national dance music; its own Icecast mount reports genre "Folk".

Language
Azerbaijani; the page declares lang="az" and every heading, menu item, slogan and paragraph is Azerbaijani.

|
Kind
Automated continuous music playout, 24 hours, with no presenter or voicetrack named anywhere and a stated purpose that is about the music rather than about shows; the audio is a 192 kbps Icecast mount whose server_name is "Yurd FM" and whose description matches the station's own slogan, and whose current stream had been up since the previous morning. A parallel video stream runs through a separate restreamer.

Worth knowing
It publishes its own region-by-region frequency expansion, ten additional FM frequencies added from the first half of 2024, which is a rare level of detail for a station this small and makes the national reach checkable.

none. There is no schedule and no show is named anywhere; I checked all three pages of the site, index, Haqqimizda and Alaqa, which is its whole navigation.

What we corrected
Each of these changed a field in our own entry. The reasoning is the researcher's own, recorded when the change was made.
| Field | Change | Why |
|---|---|---|
| homepage url | http://www.yurdfm.az/ → https://www.yurdfm.az/ | The stored address is http; the same host serves https with a certificate that validates, which I checked, returning HTTP 200 and the same page. I am keeping the www form because the stored value uses it and both www.yurdfm.az and yurdfm.az answer over https on this site, so this is the minimal change: scheme only. The site's internal links are relative, index.html, about.html and contact.html, and it publishes no canonical link or og:url, so neither form is declared preferred by the operator; changing only the scheme avoids guessing. |

What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| A copyright year for the site | The homepage footer reads "© 2024 Yurd FM" while the About and Contact pages read "© 2026 Yurd FM", so two of the site's own pages disagree and neither can be used to date it.
source |
| The static "ON AIR" status tag beside the player | It is hardcoded in the page source with no connection to the stream, so it says nothing about whether the station is on air; the Icecast feed, which does, showed it up.
source |
| The default track label "Yurd FM - Milli Musiqi..." shown in the metadata line | It is placeholder text displayed before the live metadata loads, not a track.
source |
| A third-party service key published in the homepage source | It should not be in a public page and it is not catalogue information, so I recorded neither the key nor the service's data.
source |
| The address, telephone, WhatsApp and email values | Published on the Contact page, but I do not copy addresses or numbers into this file.

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
Read from the station's own material; this page is generated from the
catalogue as it stands now, so it changes when the research does. Research
current as at 2026.
