The Strobe is a Disco and Freestyle music radio station, one of four Dance/Electronic music satellite channels operated by Sirius XM Radio, broadcasting on Sirius Satellite Radio channel 81 and DISH Network channel 6081.

On November 12, 2008 The Strobe was eliminated from the Sirius lineup as a result of the Sirius/XM channel lineup reorganization. On December 16, due to subscriber demand, Sirius XM Radio announced that the channel would be reactivated on January 15, 2009[1].

On January 15, 2009, The Strobe returned to the Sirius lineup and made its debut on XM (on XM83, where the similarly-formatted Chrome had been prior to the November 2008 channel realignment).

Sirius receivers in the US and Canada show the channel name as Cinemagic, which is available on XM and Sirius internet radio channel
