Tune-in Radio - Any suggested channels?

[rdjohn]

I listen to Radio2 every day via Tune-in Radio. However, come midday, I cannot stand listening to Jerremy Vine. Has anyone found a good alternative radio station on Tune-in? I tend to switch to RabMac at 1pm.

It's perhaps worth noting that R2 is always trending very highly, perhaps there just is not any real competition?

I like most top40's mainstream, from any era. I dislike heavy metal, old time C&W and Indy music and channels with loads of adverts for stuff I'd never buy.

Any suggestions greatly received.

I like the selection of channels from SomaFM

All music, though, no chat

P8 Pop - from Norway. Lots of 80's music

Riviera Radio - from south of France in English - excellent all round. Adverts feature, cars, yachts, and jewellery.

I listen to Solar Radio which plays a mix of classic soul/jazz and modern soul/jazz, I find none of the music they play irritating and they play some absolute classics from back in the day and not always the ones you hear everywhere.

For a bit of Prog ... Morow.

Solar - classic soul and funk. DJ's can be a bit "Smash and Nicey" but not your R2 playlist sort of stuff.

[Slushbox]

There's FIP, France International. Plays an astonishing mix of everything from jazz to funk and chanson, jazz concerts in the evening. Mostly un-interrupted by 'DJs'. Very classy.

THIS - It is just great, especially Underground 80's

And as he says - no adverts, no banal DJ's, no news, no weather, no traffic, PERFECT

Listening now to Soma. This is indeed very good!
