Traditional radio has been slowly dying for a long time. It’s sad to say, but when people started listening to vinyl, radio was in trouble. Even in the last 30 years, we’ve gone from vinyl and 8-tracks to tapes and walkmans to cd’s and portable cd players to mp3?s and portable mp3 players to Ipod’s and satellite radio. With modern cars being equipped with a combination of cd player, mp3 capable receiver, bluetooth technology and satellite radio as a standard, the future of traditional radio is looking bleak.
In a matter of seconds, you can get on any number of websites with their own radio stations and find new music, hopefully purchase the songs, transfer the files to their phones, Ipods or whatever device you have at your disposal. With a growing number of mobile and smartphones, you don’t even need to go to a site to download music. You can use an app like Shazam when you hear a song you like and purchase it right there without ever needing to go to a computer. A lot of the better internet sites like Pandora even have an algorithm that will find and suggest other artists and songs you like just by typing in an artist’s name, song title or genre. It’s a great way to find new music and artists you’ve probably never heard of.
Seeing that music is the universal language that connects us all, we think that sharing music is a beautiful thing. In the spirit of connecting with you, we created a few radio stations we thought you might like. Don’t worry the DJ is on 24/7! Our musical tastes are as eclectic as the groups of people we connect with through The New Radar and we like everything from 2Pac to Bach. Share them with your friends, tweet the stations, put them on your facebook, your blog or whatever you do. Finding a station you like should be no problem, but if you don’t find one that strikes a chord with you, make your own!
Listen to The New Radar Radio on Pandora!
