If you like modern rock, theres a free app (no ads or any bullshit either) or listen via website. Former radio DJ quit the industry and started his own online station. Im definately biased here as i used to listen to him all the time when i would drive all day long, but as its literally free and not supported by ads.

No account needed also

Anyways if you like modern rock whatwasthatradio.com

It is dedicated to only playing new music

He didnt like all the amazing music that exists to continue to go completely unnoticed by commercial radio so hes doing it himself

Hes supported by subscribers on patreon etc

If i remember correctly all songs are 36 months or newer

This is a proper SOCAN licensed service (canadian broadcasting license I think) so hes doing it proper.

www.whatwasthatradio.com

I personally have found at least a dozen new artists to listen to because of this free service

heres some of the bands he has done interviews with to give you an idea.
