We are actively pursuing a solution to this. It’s not a simple thing. RP channels require time & creative energy to maintain, and I am responsible for enough around here that my days (and sometimes nights, and often weekends) are as full as I can handle. Maybe a bit more than that. 

And that’s without giving the rock mix any attention at all. That’s not likely to change. 

The obvious fix is to bring in someone else to take it over. We have someone in mind, but we have to clean things up around here (technically speaking) before my very quirky systems can play nice with others. That’s been my primary focus this whole year - and I’m very close to being done. 

We have a number of new channels in the works. But  in a way, the new rock mix is the one I’m most excited about, because all I think of when I hear our current rock & global mixes is how much better they could be, and will be.

Soon. Finally. 

Thanks for your patience.

I enjoy Radio Paradise a lot, and I use it intensively.
Especially at work, but also during running sessions, where on its mobile application I follow the Rock and Main channels.

There are (about) 50 songs in each of these channels, and it's very convenient to have the feature allowing to go to the next song at will.

But day after day, I've noticed that I have to hit the "Next" button more and more, to hear new songs.

  • In a song list proposed for listening in the Rock channel (the one where you can follow to hear up to 50 songs), most of the time you'll find two or three Rolling Stones, two or three Talking Heads, and few other bands are coming more than one time, really too often.
    Per 50 songs list, may I ask that a band appears only once?
  • A song I have listened yesterday have a great chance to be played today too.
    Is it possible to ensure that it won't cast again for some period? Three days, or even a week?
Radio Paradise looks having a very large catalog of songs playable.
Can it extend the variety of what it broadcast, especially for Rock channel?

Thanks !

Marc








Agreed! I also enjoy Radio Paradise very much, although because of this issue of how repetitive the song list can get, I avoid listening for more than a few hours at a time. 

On a recent road trip, while driving 6 to 10 hours per day, I alternated between listening to Radio Paradise and podcasts, for the variety. Even so, I found the RP rock mix to be quite repetitive. Isn't there some way to avoid playing the same tune more often than once a week, say? The RP catalog seems huge enough that this wouldn't be a problem.
