favorite internet radio stations
Posted by: David02 on 28 October 2015
I know this topic has been done before, but the last thread was closed in april 2015...
Let's begin all over again!
Stu Bru (Belgium): modern & temporary
Klara (Belgium): classical music
Radio Paradise (Naim): no explanation needed....
KEXP 90.3 (USA): like Stu Bru, based in Seattle
FIP 105.1 (France): Parisian chic, according to the Telegraph
WFMU (USA): eclectic from New Jersey
Jazz24
Jazz24
+1
BBC Radio 3 - immaculate sound and still the world leader in classical music content, especially during the evenings and despite some idiotic presenters. Advert free too (until Cameron/Whittingdale ruin it)
BBC Radio 4 - international benchmark for intelligent speech, news and drama. Immaculate sound
Audiophile Classical - Good sound, interesting musical choices
Audiophile Baroque - ditto.
Has a listen to Klara following David02's suggestion. Average sound, but will be good in the car, as is Radio Suisse Classique and NDR Kultur. So thanks for that; look forward to other suggestions
JSH
Organlive - good sound overall
Jazz Piano Magic - great variety from Bill Evans to McCoy Tyner and beyond

+1 for BBC Radio 3 and BBC Radio 4
JSH, BR-Klassik is also good for classical music content, although unfortunately only 128kbit/s MP3. I must give Audiophile Classical and Audiophile Baroque a try.
Has been a favourite since I went looking with my unitiserve for Internet stations from day one -
Arctic Dub Sursumcorda. 128 kbps . I get the occasional moment when a light bulb goes Stella from something.... Often with a follow through to Amazon uk. Com
I'd like to add Radio Free Phoenix.
Used to like GrooveFM out of Germany, but they seem to have disappeared.
For electronica, still think friskyradio.com is very hard to beat......

This is not in the app off naim? Only in the frisky app of on internet??
deep vibes, lounge radio
Otto's Baroque. Always interesting.
Like many stations, it's there if you know where to look in the non-searchable labyrinth of the Internet Radio input - it's under iRadio > Location > North America > United States > California > All stations
Planet Rock I'll get my coat!

How would one find this station on a Naim streamer? I think the label is Portuguese, perhaps, but can't find it under Portugal.
Edit: found it under genre>dance.

From New York.
Pinguin Radio (Netherlands) 320kb/s. Think Radio Paradise without the jazz, classical and country. They have guest chat at the weekend evenings with live music played.
Gutter Punk Radio
Prog Palace Radio
Party Vibe Radio (hip hop)
Rock Bandom Radio 320kb/s
Planet Rock
+1
1.FM Alternative Rock X
1.FM High Voltage
BBC 6 Music
BBC Radio 6..............great for hearing folk you've never heard of.
Allright, I'll get me coat!

JSH
maybe you want to check out Klara Continuo. Almost the same station but music only (no dutch spoken)
BBC Radio 2, 4 and Five Live in rather nice 'HiDef'
I wish the BBC would stream 5 Live in Stereo though like they used to years ago on D'R'AB.
Radio Paradise of course and I'm still paying the price
