Pulzar FM is a radio station based in Christchurch, New Zealand. It broadcast on 88.7fm (and several other frequencies) in Christchurch from 1999 until November 2007.

Pulzar FM plays many different genres of dance & electronic music, including house, breaks, trance, hard dance, euro, drum and bass, electro, indie electronica, and more.

At its peak there were 8 full time staff and over 30 volunteers announcers and DJ's working for the company.

Since 2006, Pulzar FM has broadcast a number of high profile shows by international performers such as Matt Darey, Agnelli & Nelson and Solarstone. [ [http://www.solarstone.co.uk/radio Solarstone Radio Show Info] ]

As one of the higher profile low power radio stations in Christchurch Pulzar FM gained a reasonable following among students and young people.

Since November 2007 the station has been off-air, but an internet only presence is likely to be relaunched in the near future.
