In today's high-tech world of music services and playlists, sometimes you just want to kick back and LISTEN! Just press play and listen, 24/7 commercial-free, to the music of over 400 progressive rock bands from all time periods. From the classic prog bands of the 60's & 70's, through and and including the latest releases from today's prog artists.
OUR MISSION: Help expand the popularity of Prog music.
METHOD: Provide a passive listening experience that is enjoyable to existing Prog fans, while helping those new to Prog discover music and artists.
SLOGO: "Honoring the Past, Spotlighting the Present, and Inspiring the Future of Progressive Rock music."
FEATURES:
• 24/7 commercial-free Progressive Rock music.
• Streaming at Lossless 320kbps for amazing, CD-quality sound.
• Over 400 bands/artists featured in rotation.
• Leans towards the "melodic and approachable" side of Prog.
• Mix of old and new music. Current Mix: 33% new music released in last 12 months, 42% music from the 400+ artists from all periods, and 25% "the classics" (Genesis, Yes, King Crimson, etc.).
• Ranges from soft to hard, but stops at hard-core metal and "growling."
• Online Song Requests 24/7.
• Listener and artist "Shout Outs" from around the world.
• After playing, each song is "bumped" with: song title, artist's name, artist's country, year released, album name, album number, and perhaps some trivia. (This makes it ideal to listen to on runs, driving, etc., where you can't always look down to see what's playing.)
• Fully licensed to cover both the sound recordings (SoundExchange, etc.) and performance rights (ASCAP, BMI, etc.). This ensures that the artists, songwriters, bands, labels, etc. are properly compensated for their work. When you listen to Prog Radio, you're helping support the amazing artists here.
In addition to playing Prog, to keep listening interesting, we also play what we call "Prog adjacent" songs. (Songs from bands that may not always be considered "Prog," but that will likely please the ear of a Prog fan. Tune in to hear what we mean.)
