Radiooooo – The Music Time Machine

It's interesting to see that the map reshapes as you move through the decades. Germany splits into two and then goes back to one, Africa and the Indian subcontinent get progressively decolonized, etc. It's not perfect, particularly in east Asia (Taiwan is always independent and Korea is always two countries, and neither are ever colonized by Japan), but what's there is fun to see.

Wow, this is awesome. Many of the songs can&#x27;t even be ID&#x27;d by Shazam and are not on Apple Music.<p>I wish the initial modal dialog was easier to close and that the current track ID was reflected in the URL bar, e.g. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.com&#x2F;?track&#x2F;df3115c7-4eea-4d26-aba9-3c1905420d5a" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.com&#x2F;?track&#x2F;df3115c7-4eea-4d26-aba9-3c190542...</a>

Fantastic. Here&#x27;s another niftly radio app: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;radio.garden&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;radio.garden&#x2F;</a>

the UPDATE of radiooooo is here for testing: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.app</a> :)

One clarification: The dates specify the date of release, right? I went to the site expecting to hear popular songs from that era&#x2F;region, but I&#x27;ve never heard of any of the songs it plays.

This is great! Love the artistic interface, it&#x27;s refreshingly distinctive from all the other websites I visit these days.<p>My only issue is the Taxi dialog didn&#x27;t seem to position correctly in Chrome on my Android, and I couldn&#x27;t accept or dismiss it.<p>How did the author manage to keep playing music after forwarding me to the iTunes store? iframe or something?

I could see they are using three.js for a visual library, but I couldn&#x27;t tell what they were using for audio. Maybe they are interacting with the web audio api directly, since they are only playing a single piece at a time. I didn&#x27;t hear in fade in&#x2F;out or more advanced functionality.

I love the creative design of this site&#x2F;app! There are so many gems in here. I’m now trying your updated iOS app in TestFlight, kids are using the old version. 1. I recommend changing Fornication Island to Seduction Island and changing the picture from a behind in the water to something else. Kids love this app and it should be kid friendly. 2. The icon for the old version is a better design and more memorable. I suggest changing it back. 3. Making the map look more like a paper map would be a way cooler interface, though could be tough since you’d need one per decade. But it would REALLY make the app unique.

I don&#x27;t get it. No matter where I click I get: &quot;This area &#x2F;decade is empty&quot;. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;radiooooo.app</a> works though.

If you like old time radio (I&#x27;m a big fan) check out the radio dramas on <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.radioechoes.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.radioechoes.com</a> as well. You could try out my scraper as well and see if it still works* <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sequoia.makes.software&#x2F;projects&#x2F;#radio-echoes-downloader" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sequoia.makes.software&#x2F;projects&#x2F;#radio-echoes-downlo...</a> (I was using it to scrape &amp; bundle mp3s to audio books for a while).<p>* edit: it doesn&#x27;t :p

Nice. I&#x27;ve got serious thing for 60&#x2F;70&#x27;s middle eastern&#x2F;north african jazz and prog, ranging geographically from Ethiopia to Turkey to Afghanistan. Back in 2004 to 2007 I used to have a late night radio show on UK local radio station that broadcast on a Friday night and mingled in many of these gems along with Caravan, Soft Machine, Pere Ubu and so much more.<p>Whoever Victor Kiswell is, sir, you have an amazing library of tunes and I&#x27;d love to speak to you.<p>Current tune:<p>African Jumbo by Abbass Mehrpouya (1976, Iran)...bonkers good, would love to own that.

This is really fun!<p>Not sure if bug or missing feature, but the decade tabs at the bottom of the screen are unlabeled so I have to click around a bit to find the decade I want.<p>Firefox 74.0b7 on macOS 10.15.3.

This is brilliant! How have I never heard of this before?

How&#x27;s the song upload feature in terms of copyright?

Nice! I collect tropical, good to see something like this do well. Can I ask about the motivation &#x2F; team behind it?

I use this site for years already and I’m always happy to see it’s still around. One of the little indie web gems.

Very cool. Listened to some French and African 70s stuff.. Thanks for posting this.<p>One minor glitch -- user registration form wouldn&#x27;t work for me.<p>It told me there was an error, therefore &quot;my email must already be registered&quot;.

This is an incredible website thank you the creator!

It has a strange bug, where if you visit it with HTTPS, none of the songs load. They could just use letsencrypt.

It is inaccurate: For Mexico 1980 it actually showed &quot;La Union&quot; band which is actually Spanish.

This is really good thanks. Great for discovering sounds from all over the World and time.

I love this! I make sampled-based beats and it seems like a great way to dig for samples.

Wow! This is one of the most creative, fun website I have seen in years, thank you!

Low key this is awesome. Enjoying pulling up the 60s in US and the UK, or Cuba.

Brilliant. Loved it.

This is dope! Love it, web needs more art.

This is cool. Just super super cool Wow!

This is amazing, love it.

how nice is it, it is just the Big data and AI should doing!

Pause or Stop button?

This is really great!

Veeery good

This site is barely accessible with a screen reader. Lots of unlabeled graphical elements, and no obvious way to change the country from T&amp;T.

I&#x27;ve been using this for years. it&#x27;s a godsend. I love it beyond words.
