๐ Radio Garden
Radio Garden allows listeners to tune into live radio across the entire globe.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ the best place to listen worldwide radios, but it is not about own little atmosphere.
๐๐ฃ Radiooooo
Radio, where you can pick a country and a decade and chill...
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ one of the best music library out there
๐๐ You are listening to...
Nice meditative radio. The combination of the police scanner and ambient music.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ โ nice idea, but awkward interface and technical side of realisation
๐ฅฝ๐น Poolside FM
Nice retro future-funk radio with incredible design!
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ - the best player's design
๐ฃ Nightwave Plaza
Nice vaporwave radio with nice retro look.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ my first web-radio
Cool sovietwave radio. This is one of the main sovietwave centres of attraction.
Sometimes there are post-punk tracks that ruins common atmosphere.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ - the centre of sovietwave community
๐๐๐พ Nightride FM

๐ฅ๐ฝ drumfunk
Simple drum-n-bass/jungle/breakcore radio with nice bassy playlists.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ - it just works, no issues with streaming. Needs more visual sugar at the site
๐ช๐ฅท jungletrain
Welcome to jungletrain.net, the world's finest Drum & Bass and Jungle internet radio station! Since 2001, the station has been broadcasting 24/7 commercial-free music, featuring shows from some of the genre's best DJs and producers.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ - nice lo-fi'ish playlist, no problems with streaming, but weak site design
โ๐ BADRADIO
A OG Phonk, Memphis, Houston, Trap & Trill radio station "with the latest tracks by all the top producers". Having it's mobile apps and it's own community with discord-server.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ - complex project with good maintainance and realisation, chilly playlists, but there is no distinct atmosphere.
๐๐ซ๐ REAL DRIFT
Generally drift phonk radio with simple and laggy player (sometimes even pause button don't work).
My rating: โ โ โโโ - simple and laggy.
๐พ Retrowave Radio
If you think that retrowave is a music genre, then this is definitely your spot.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ โ generic playlist and design, but stable technical realisation.
๐ฎ Rainwave
Rainwave is an open-source project with radio and music controller, written in Python. The radio consists of gaming music with some categories (i.e. Chiptune, OSTs, Covers etc).
My rating: โ โ โ โโ โ interesting project with fine implementation and playlist, but there is no special style
๐น Retro Chip Radio
Human curated Chiptune playlist with real old stuff directly from old games with old systems audio-processors limitations. Sadly, they have no SSL connection to the site.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ I like the idea and sound, but there is weak interface and some lags time by time.
โ Radiio
Minimalistic site with 6 different playlists: Chiptune, Military, Drone, 90s Hip Hop, Classical music, and Sleeping.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ โ well realised, but nothing special

Listener supported & always 100% commercial free radio. RP has three main streams, separated by genres.
There you can not only listen music but discover it with info from marketplaces, lyrics, wiki and comments.
My rating: โ โ โโโ โ it is not so small project and there is no distinct style, maybe I didn't get it
๐๐งโโ๏ธ Live Underground Radio
Strange radio, sometimes psychedelic, sometimes ROCK(!).
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ mysterious project with nice sound.
๐ผ My 80s Bedroom
Retro radio. I don't know mutch about it, but I think that there is no distinct genre, just a nostalgic atmosphere.
My rating: โ โ โ โโ โ interesting project, but maybe I didn't get into it.
๐ provoda.ch
Russian radio with experimental stuff.
My rating: โ โ โ โ โ โ something worth checking out...
๐โข Radio Resistance
Brutal synthwave radio with nice frontend. Sadly, it is laggy and unstable :(

RIP...
My rating: โ โ โโโ โ nice individual style and sound, but almost not usable because of permanent network issues
๐ถ๐บ๐ธ Planet Pootwaddle
This is the radio inspired by American baby boom period (Whut???). Strange thing... And laggy... Sometimes doesn't work at all.
