I found a fun thing

This has been my writing music for a week or so - Radio Garden:

http://radio.garden/

You can use it to listen to radio stations all over the world.

So much music! So many languages!

I haven't listened to the radio in years, since I no longer commute, and I am finding that in addition to being able to find new music, there's also just something really nostalgic and fun about listening to music with the interruptions and commercials and the between-song bridge f/x. It's really neat.

There's also just something neat about knowing that radio is still this alive and well even with streaming everything.

I really enjoy listening to the radio on the longer drives I make. It's different than when you know what's coming on a pre-recorded playlist.

(I'm ad-averse however, and always switch station if it gets to chattering between the songs XD )

If you like jazz, KMHD has some really great shows. Their 7-10a Pacific time DJ is phenomenal. It's a mix of modern and old (sometimes really old) stuff and he knows a ton about the artists and clearly really loves the music he plays.

I've heard of this! Used it briefly and then forgot, but I want to try again. It's fantastic that someone built this.
