I think this was posted shortly before the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. I remember the night before the invasion listening to a station right by the border, remarking on how normal the radio was.

Title has a typo, it should be “Radio Garden”

It’s here now, and live, so … the good internet that is?

Thanks. Reposts are fine on HN after a year or so (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html), but 3 months ago is too soon.

I found a couple fun ones near the ones you posted:

https://radio.garden/visit/ris-orangis/QP41kyYR Volubilis Radio, Ris-Orangis France

seems to play some later 60ish stuff

groovy theme, trombone solo

string section, horn section, rock instruments, sitar, harpsichord, quite a setup!

no vocals so far on the last couple of tracks, spy movie theme song stuff

https://radio.garden/visit/yamoussoukro/2hK0VL6B Radio MEDIA+CI Yamoussoukro 90.2 FM Yamoussoukro, Côte d'Ivoire

african rhythms, african and french lyrics, mellower than some of the dance beat stations

nice guitars and vocals

lots of fun bouncing around all of the neighboring stations!
