Maybe you’ll find your next favorite song in a place you never suspected.
7. Jango
Jango has been featured in USA Today and The Wall Street Journal. It’s easy to navigate, so nearly anyone can use it. You can listen to music based on whatever artist you love, the top music of the day, the best of the year, and more. It even features holiday music to get you in the mood.
8. TuneIn
TuneIn allows you to listen to radio stations anywhere in the world, which is unique compared to most websites, which only offer access to stations in the United States. It doesn’t matter if you love electronica in Europe or talk shows in Australia, you can listen to it. You can search by location, genre, station type, or name.
9. Soma.fm
Soma is famous for broadcasting alternative, electronic, trip-hop, and more for over a decade. This service is user-supported, meaning there are no commercials during broadcasts. Plus, most of the stations on this site are rarely heard anywhere else. While it takes a little familiarization, once you learn how to use it, this website may become your new best friend.
10. Spotify
While other stations may not give you the exact song you want to listen to, Spotify will give you what you want, when you want it. It’s free and ad-supported, but it’s an amazing music streaming website. You can pay $5 a month to remove ads, which is pretty cheap, but there’s not much reason to.
