What is alternative radio?

Alternative radio is whatever live stations tag as alternative — local FM, specialist webcasters, and diaspora shows. On AngryBeat you hear their live encoder, not a file we stitched together.

Can I listen to alternative live online for free on AngryBeat?

Yes. Play any alternative station on this page at no charge. We list public stream URLs; we do not sell the music or host the audio.

Where should I look besides this alternative tag?

Open Browse by country if you know a place that programs alternative, or all genres for neighbouring sounds. Station of the day is a worldwide live pick that changes at midnight UTC.

Is alternative radio a playlist?

No. It is a live broadcast. Talk, ads, and whatever the station scheduled still come through.

How do I save alternative stations to Favorites?

Heart the card. The list stays in this browser on Favorites. If a stream is offline, try another alternative station rather than refreshing forever.
