Groovy Music

Groovy Music

Programmers get into a serious zone when coding. In the MediaGirl studio we have a little help staying in that zone from our favorite radio station.... Lounge Radio. Lounge Radio is a non-commercial web radio broadcast out of Switzerland. The station broadcasts 24 hours a day and plays mostly nujazz.

We also like Radio Paradise out of Paradise, CA. The station plays an eclectic mix of music that will keep you going for hours.

Pandora is another great option for online radio listening. Pandora lets you build your own radio station around music you like. Just plug the name of an artist or a song into Pandora and voila!

Slacker is a great stop for those looking for lots of variety. You can listen online or download a player that you control on your computer. Similar to Pandora, you can also build your own radio stations based on artists you like.

Check out SomaFM for 11 channels of independent, commercial-free internet radio. The stations include underground electronica, chillout, ambient groove, downtempo, lounge, space music, indie rock and alt.country/americana.

Leave a comment with your favorite online radio station!

My life would not be the same without KCRW. It's a community-college based public radio station in Southern California that I listened to every day when I lived in LA. Their programming is about half music, half talk (NPR plus local shows.) They have three feeds: live, music and news. Check out "Morning Become Eclectic" on their live feed weekdays from 9 to 12 pst, or on their archived music channel.

Digitally Imported Radio ( trance) is my choice. When coding it's a good way to break the silence and stay on right wave. But sometimes ideas end and my winamp playlist tracks helps me to go on.

Sky.fm roots reggae is great. Bigupradio.com... their roots and dub stations are amazing. Some good dub would go excellent with programming.
