Jingthing Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) I'm not exactly a music fanatic but I've been enjoying sampling many of the international stations from Surfmusic: http://www.surfmusic.de/ The hardest part for me has been finding the best stations for my personal eclectic taste. I've been sampling mostly stations labeled MIX but sometimes try more specific categories as well. Such as jazz, blues, Latin, etc. I've yet to find a rock station I like. Many of the U.S. stations aren't directly accessible with the Listen Live button so I don't bother with any of them. Recently the two stations I've been listening to most are Evasion Paris and Galgalatz Tel Aviv (which is featured right on the front page of the site). I don't like the stations that are purely canned music categories and not "real" radio stations. So I'm wondering if others could share what they've found to be their favorite internet available stations. Like I said, I like to mix it up.

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Something I came across lately that I've found myself using a lot is a free service and app called MyTuner, which is kind of like a TuneIn service except more international than TuneIn. But in addition, MyTuner has a very good selection of U.S. radio station content, and plays very well here. And one feature I always look for is the ability to keep a local Favorites list, which this service supports. MyTuner has a web version, Windows version, Android app version, and versions in the Apple and Amazon app stores. Works great on my Fire TV devices and on my Android TV devices. https://mytuner-radio.com/ https://mytuner-radio.com/search/?q=San+Francisco's+70s+Hit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aircooledflat4 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) I’m really enjoying Jonesey’s Jukebox (Steve Jones, Sex Pistols). Brilliant interviewer, he asks the kind of questions I myself would ask. This one with Dave Davies is just one of many great ones he’s been doing: Another great interview to check out is Jonesy with Rick Springfield. They jam some Shadows at the end - excellent stuff!

Dap Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Might wanna' check out Radio Dos (Radio2) Costa Rica.

tropo Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) RadioTunes, no contest. With satellite specialty stations, all for one login ID and password, free or paid: RadioTunes main site: 100 channels Jazz Radio: 35 channels Classical Radio: 50 channels Rock Radio: 35 channels DI.FM: 96 channels (digital FM) All channels have directors. A free account is not bad at 64 kbps AAC, paid account: 128 kbps AAC or 320 kbps MP3 quality. It's state-of-the-art internet radio IMO with great apps for mobile devices. I've been using it since 2012 as a paid member. Edited September 11, 2018 by tropo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Another good website with a wide range of free and pretty much commercial free music is 181.FM, where each online station is dedicated to a particular genre of music. And there are dozens of stations of all flavors. 181.FM doesn't appear to have its own apps, but its stations are accessible through its own website and at least several of the broad online radio apps, including the MyTuner app and website I mentioned in a prior post here. I think 181.FM's stations also are available via TuneIn, and can be played via ITunes and Winamp. http://www.181.fm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedhump Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 http://www.181.fm is quite good. An American slant I think though, a lot of country stations. If you buy an Internet radio it will (should) already have thousands of stations ready, from Peru to Japan, including all the BBC stations, even a couple of UK student radio stations (mine does)! That was how I found 181.fm in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I pretty much stick to BBC Radio 3...sometimes they come up with stuff that I've never heard and I become alerted by just listening...but many times it's just 'popular classics', serves as background music...and there's a news summary on the hour... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 BBC Radio 1 and 2 , and some local radio stations from my native country Norway . I also tune into some nonstop music channels oldies , 80's etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoomtokyo Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 For old-fashioned radio, eg, news, info and decent live DJs, you can't beat RTHK Radio 3, Hong Kong's public broadcaster, if you're in Asia. I'm a regular listener of always-amusing Steve James in the late afternoon and Money Talk in the mornings. I find automated, voice tracked internet radio cold and impersonal. RTHK can be heard online on their app. Also, I tune into Surf 102.5 in Hua Hin, as well as AXR, out of Singaporre, which unfortunately is voice-tracked and plays too much thump-thump and teen music.

The manic Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 A potentially excellent thread ruined by the crass idea that radio is confined to music. I listen to radio for drama, news, comedy, current affairs, weather ..never music. Listen to this poetry I have been listening to for 6 decades. It is The weather mantra that defines true Brits. Brilliant! Edited 3 minutes ago by The manic Quote Edit PREV 4 NEXT Page 4 of 4 Reply to this topic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewsterbudgen Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 TuneIn is great for delving into the shocking underworld of conservative American Talk Radio. Listening to the deranged spoutings of the likes of Mark Levin, Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham is eye opening!Sent from my SM-G930F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
