I started using Radio Garden app to listen to my favourite radio stations, but I would like to explore more. I am mostly interested in music, maybe with a bit of talking, and music that ages well, not the kind if radio that has the latest of the latest.

For now my favourites are:

Die Neue FM 107.7 Germany Kiss FM Spain Magic FM Romania

I am interested in music in other languages too, not only English. A good mix.

Chirp: Chicago Independent Radio Project is what I always recommend when this comes up. Commercial-free, live volunteer DJs, solid history, community-supported.

Deep House Lounge Mostly instrumental, all house music, which I personally find great for background noise when I'm working and need something that is nice but not so complex that it distracts me.

Radio Buena Vida is based out of Glasgow, cool stuff whenever I chuck it on. It's not got a 24hr programme but they run repeats during their off hours https://buenavida.co.uk/

Awesome, the name at least sounds promising :D I found it on Radio Garden and added it to my list to check out. Thanks!

CKUA is Canada's oldest public broadcaster and supported by community donations, not ads. They have fundraising events a couple times a year, where they will solicit donations. But otherwise its just full of interesting programs and music you've most likely never heard before. The full spectrum of world music with quite a bit of Canadian content

Thanks for the suggestion! Currently playing song sounds great. Added to my list.

I like listening to https://www.voice1025.gr/ Reminds me of vacation time in Greece. Mostly 90s-2010 music and little talking in my experience.

Thanks! Remembering summer vacations is always so nostalgic.
