Lend An Ear To The World
The algorithm of stream music platforms started to become inadequate in discovering music nowadays, which we spent days at home. As musicians’ productivity has increased, there are a lot of songs and albums to discover. You can get out of the system where artificial intelligence offers you similar songs, and listen to radio with alive human beings, VJs, who have taste of music and tell the stories behind the songs. We advise independent radios, because VJs on independent radios can play all kinds of tracks without any concern for advertising. Let your radio set your song on the background, while you are working at home office or spending time at home.
