I don't know if everyone knows Radiooooo by now, but I've been using it to listen to Palestinian music from different decades. It doesn't have a huge selection, and I know it doesn't do much good or anything, but I think it's also nice to appreciate some of the beautiful things made by Palestinians in the midst of this kind of tragedy.

And also it's just good music in general. You guys should check it out :)

A cool song that gives me unearned nostalgia

So I’ve been using the radiooooo app a lot and was listening to 80’s Ukraine today. This song came up for me a couple days ago and again today: Alice Theme 1, by Volodymyr Bystriakov (Ukrainian: Володимир Бистряков) composed for an animated adaptation of Lewis Carol’s Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There. The film was made by the Kyiv-based film studio Kyivnaukfilm (Ukrainian: Київнаукфільм).

I love this song. It’s so good. It feels like video game music in the best possible way. The melody gives me such a feeling of nostalgia. It feels haunting but comforting at the same time? I love it. I haven’t listened to the whole soundtrack of the movie but now I want to.

Here’s the song:

And here’s the film’s full soundtrack:

I want to watch this movie now but I’m not certain if I can find one with subtitles since I don’t know Ukrainian. I’ll do my best to search though!!

I just thought this was such a cool song and it makes me feel things.

Actually am using radiooooo.org from that post I just reblogged and its fr so cool. Wish the paid version wasn't leagues better than the free version, but it is what it is and honestly a website as cool unique as this should be making good money

I was listening to 1980s Switzerland on this app yesterday!

I wish Americans fucked with more foreign music. You don’t have to know the language to appreciate a good record. Folks in other countries listen to our music and don’t speak a lick of english. Music needs no translator

I was on radiooooo.com this afternoon, put on France in the 80's, and this song came on, and holy crap. The album cover is absolutely stunning. I was so flabbergasted when I saw it. Is it possible to fall in love with a picture?

Hi, as a music collector this is highly relevant to my interests! Personal recommendations include:

70s/80s Poland (esp. jazz, there's a whole thing about how jazz was repressed in Poland during the Stalinist era and the evolution of the genre after his death)

80s Brazil (nobody fuckin BOPS like Brazilian pop music okay?!)

90s Sweden/Norway/Finland (a lot of cool experimental folk/rock/electronica in this era, you're bound to encounter some Björk-like stuff in the process)

70s Philippines (^ spacedumpster above said it best, ANY COUNTRY's 70s music is bound to be fucking amazing)

60s Jamaica (especially recommended if you like ska/punk, now you get to hear the origins and what makes that genre of music so goddamn FUN!)

one of my friends found radiooooo which is a site that streams music from any country from any decade (well, most countries/decade combos work) and we’ve been digging going on a quest to find what is rad

so far the following is good

50s/60s/70s/80s russia

70s cambodia

20s japan

80s ethiopia

80s india

Not trying to make a political comment or anything, but GIRL does North Korea have some fucking BANGERS

Also everything I've listened to has this orchestral quality to it... Very, very nice stuff
