Thanks @georgehifi your post prompted me to make another donation to RP. 

 

And you just made me do it again too. (Long live RP just the way it is)

 

Cheers George

Radio Paradise along with Highway 61 Internet Radio are only 2 stations you need, both brilliant

[georgehifi]

 

And if you listen to Classical as well like I do, for the very highest quality, they say it's "Mother Earth Radio" "Klassik" from Germany is 24/96 their highest feed, but like I had to get, you'll need fiber to the premises to get zero dropouts, or pick one of the other qualities.

I generally listen to the mellow mix but sometimes change to the eclectic/global mix but have noticed it has recently disappeared.

 

I had a look today and

mentions that it is only temporary:

 

Thanks for your patience as we give our Global mix a little spa day.  While we're pampering it for the next couple of days, we're also working on some sneaky tech upgrades to spruce up the backend of ALL RP's streams. It's the less glamorous part of the job, but it's absolutely essential to ensure your favorite musical adventures are always here for you, no matter what.

A huge shout-out to those of you who've shown our Global mix some love – you're making the stream blush.

While you're eagerly awaiting the Global mix's triumphant return, why not take the main mix for a spin?

 

Anyway I will watch out for its return!

Some more love today for RP. I fired it back up again on the Mellow Mix while working away in the office.

It really is such a great service. I love just about everything they play - a large portion of their curation which is previously unheard to me.

Ya got that right, and each song follows the one before like it was made for it. 

Don't forget to donate to keep this Radio Paradise (mellow mix) going forever.

Best thing it's free and HQ Flac if your internet can handle it, if not just down grade to Low, Med, High or Ultra. and still free with no ads!!

 

Cheers George

Would anyone be interested in contributing to a "group" donation from StereoNET?

I'm happy to make one myself, and thanks for the reminder @georgehifi (pretty sure I have made a previous donation) ... but just thought there might be a few that want to get involved to show our appreciation (we might even get a shout out if they do that sort of thing!).

have to agree Marc. 
 

I’m a regular RP listener and love their playlists. I usually listening to their main mix and occasionally jump across to Rock.

They have been adding new tracks recently to freshen things up which is good.

I’m streaming FLAC with my Innuos Zen Mk3 and the sound quality from Radio Paradise is superb.

As a regular RP listener for the last 10+ years, happy to contribute too!

I was a regular RP listener (Rock Mix) back in the day when using native BluOS. I moved to Roon and it was not available and I used other stations instead. This thread came to my attention earlier in the week and I went to investigate if Roon had made it available now. Low and behold I have been listening to RP for 3 days straight again.

 

It's good to have it back and thanks for the timely reminder. I'm happy to pitch-in a few bucks on a joint donation - if I missed the boat then I'll do a direct donation now I am back in the fold.

 

Loving having RP once again. Much joy.

[Guest]

I was just waiting a touch longer to see if anyone else wanted to jump aboard.

Thanks @El Tel!

Interesting.  RP has been available on Roon for as long as I've been using it?  

 

I already donate but happy to throw in for an SNA group donation as well.

Another fan of PR

Happen to spinning the main mix now

 

I too would b interested in a combined grp donation 

[Guest]

I've had a couple of PMs about this also. I'll give it until Sunday evening (17th December), and then PM everyone in a group message.

@lebowski @turnthetable @wolster @evil c @El Tel @POV @Hydrology @wasabijim 

 

Thanks for your generous offers of support for us contributing to RP. Could you all please PM me directly with the amount you can donate, and we'll get this sorted today! Thanks again. In addition to the member donations we'll contribute $500 on behalf of StereoNET.

Dunno if I am slow to the party here, but have noticed that RP have added a new option to the IOS app called My RP Favourites.  This appears to be a generated playlist of all songs that you have rated at 7 or higher.  Absolutely loving it!  Down at the holiday house and have it playing away.  This is a superb addition as I have been rating songs for years now so have a huge selection in the 7+ range in my rating history.

 

Bravo RP.

 

[Guest]

Thanks for the heads up, will have to check out that feature.

[GregWormald]

I've been an RP fan for quite a few years now, and a regular contributor as well, so I'll keep doing it myself. The Mellow Mix gets recorded and played in the car.

 

Thanks to Marc and all contributors for keeping RP on the air.

 

OT—for jazz fans Jazz24 is also on my list of regular listens and contributions.
