bridgeenjoyerYSK: about SomaFM, a listener supported, ad free, internet radio thats been going for 26 years
VogiLove me some SomaFM, for more variety I also like to listen in ByteFM (also ad-free since 2008).
DJs are talking german, but their mixes are unmatched.

JohnnyEnzymeI also like to listen in ByteFM
Okay, I see their station list, but am not seeing a lounge channel. I haven’t heard a good lounge channel for centuries, and Soma’s “Groove Salad” station has gotten stale over the years.
These are sadly more shows than stations which means you have to keep in mind when a show or its rerun is playing and also that their sometimes a show playing you really do not vibe with. I do not think they have comparable show to “Groove Salad” and their rather verbose show naming does not help there.
Groove Crates goes a little into the same direction, but the spectrum and genres they are playing is a lot wider and has a lot more funk, soul featured.
Danke! So… do I have to listen via webplayer, or can it play through my WinAmp, Foobar2000, etc?
Your welcome :) They do have direct links you can import there I think. Only did that with cmus myself though.
Main station: https://bytefm.stream39.radiohost.de/bytefm-mainhq_mp3-320
and they also have an alternative station which only runs music, but im not sure what schedule it is following: https://bytefm.stream39.radiohost.de/bytefm-nurmusikhq_mp3-192
Wow those are some old names. I guess I had forgotten Foobar2000.
You keep being groovy, you!
Speaking of groovy, WinAmp got an modern upgrade a couple years ago, and has all those awesome visualizers built in. Plus it still has the Shoutcast network, altho I think that feature has been kind of dying over the years, not sure.
No reason not to keep using it, far as I know…
