The very first internet station ever, out of Freedom California is: KPIG Run by real music enthusiasts, they find lots of unusual stuff. No top 40 or pop. Mostly a funky country rock blues style. Some comedy from time to time. They play , Allman Bros, Neil Young, Etta James, Van Morrison, Little Feat, some bluegrass and lots of unheard of originals. I highly recommend a good listen. |
While at work, I split time between KCEA and Mostly Classical |
www.e-radio.gr I really dont listen to too much internet radio, (2 channel is too costly!) but if I ever do, it is usually to e-radio.gr, direct and with many stations from Athens,Greece. Great to explore foreign music, broaden some horizons? I also listen to cbc radio 2, also available on internet, live. |
May I amend this a bit to suggest favorite shows? for instance, I found a radio station in San Francisco called KFOG which is alaternative rock and they do an interestint "Ten at 10" show in the morning (10am) and repeat in the evening(10pm) weekdays, which has ten songs from a given year and is commercial-free during this show. They also do a nice acoustic Sunrise/Sunset on Sundays. Worth a try. |
Aural Moon - www.auralmoon.com - includes the Gagliarchives plus a whole lot more - prog rock at its best SomaFM - www.somafm.com - techno, electronica, lounge, indie - all stations at least 128k and very well programmed, plus lots of other formats and bitrates There are a ton of college and independent radio stations that also stream and, while the quality of the content can vary widely, almost all of them have something worth listening to. I used to live in Eugene, OR and there are 3 really good stations there: KLCC, KRVM and KWVA. I'm listening to bluegrass on KRVM right now, even though I live in NY... :-) |
I am surprised no one has mentioned AccuRadio, that is an independent music webcaster with over 240 customizable channels. AccuRadio |

I listen to RadioParadise..... a lot! I also like TSF Jazz from Paris. I just found out about a good not-for-profit station in Milwaukee last week. Sat next to the Executive Director of RadioMilwaukee.org at a Courtney Barnett concert at the Pabst Theater In Milwaukee last week. Checked out the station - RadioMilwaukee.org and it is very good.... |
My whole family including wife and kids enjoy Antenne Bayern. Diverse oldies station out of Germany with decent sound quality. I hear lots of oldies not heard in years there. Many Probably bigger hits in Europe than here. Heck they even just played “Locomotive Breath” by Jethro Tull. Who expected that on an “oldies” station. |
I've been listening to (and supporting) Folk Alley for years. I usually just listen to it as background music when working out or sitting at the computer. I'm sure the bitrate for their stream is "non-audiophile," but it sounds okay. Lately, I've been listening more to Radio Paradise through BluOs and it sounds very, very good. |
