What Radio Paradise actually is

Every song on Radio Paradise is chosen and ordered by a small team rather than a rotation engine, across four channels including a mellow mix and a global one. It streams in lossless quality for free, funded by listeners, with artwork and a full play history alongside.

Why it is worth your time

The sequencing is the product. What follows a track has been chosen deliberately, so the joins between songs make sense in a way shuffled playlists never manage.
