What we are listening to this summer?

At endemicworld.com we have music playing pretty much all day. People come in here and often comment on the tunes playing. The good beats keep us charging and having fun. So thought we would share what we are listening to these days.

We listen to [business:base fm] by streaming it online. Its’ our main music feed. We miss Tommy Flowers breakfast show but can’t get enough of their dancehall, hiphop reggae and dubstep. They even have a web cam so you can watch the DJ. It has bugger all ads and is not filed with talk, just sweet tunes.

We also listen to [business:kfm]. These guys broadcast out of the teaculture on K’road and this is as underground as radio gets. But the music variety and DJ quality is high. Stream it here. No morning is complete without “Breakfast of Champions” with Morning Steppa.

Another way to get some good tunes is to check out the student radio stations around the world. Edinburgh uni has a cool one called Fresh Air. And Austria has FM4 which has a few english shows.

Happy ears.
