I know that in the past, there has only been one real thread about this, and I didn't know if this should go into general or here in a blog, and there have been posts about thishere,and here but it did not go far unfortunately, so I thought it would be a good idea to reintroduce this. I want to know what you guys are listening to. Especially if guys like Intrigue or JWD or TheDeadHaji or Boesthius because they have some pretty awesome taste in everything it seems. I personally have switched off listening to these stations:
My stuff

Stuff I took from other people

I'm not a huge music buff so I don't know all the bands, but from my personal profile I have listened to thousands of songs, and have around 700 ish likes so I have use Pandora extensively.
My point to you guys
- What are your Pandora / Last.FM / Iheartradio stations?
- If you have any really great ones, please share them ^^
- What do you look for in your Pandora stations or what specific songs on your stations do you really love?
I hope this goes somewhere or gets posted / moved to general if it needs to be there. I really think this could be a great way of sharing music with other people and broadening horizons. I know I have found out about people I never knew existed by sharing music and I hope that will continue.
There are some things that I really enjoy about TL and one of them is that the sharing nature of this website and community really creates opportunities to know new things. There is always something I haven't heard of that is introduced to me here. Everyday this place makes me think and learn, even more so than real life does sometimes. I think this could be a great thread to help people learn more about music they love, and appreciate music that they used to not love.

Pandora. ♥
I made a instrumental blog 1 a day last year, so needless to say I was on Pandora A LOT going through music. Here are some of my favorites, and little previews
Trip-hop/Electronic-I use to title this "Beats radio", as it was crafted out of artists like RJD2, and Eliot Lipp. It'll play instrumental tracks similar to Little People, Bonobo, Emancipator, and Moby. Overall feel is chill. I've spent a good deal of time on this station, it doesn't really play tracks I'm not familiar with anymore.
More Lazers Radio-If you've heard the track, you'll know what this one is. Crafted out of More Lazers by ediT, this plays heavy electronic and glitch hop tracks. It'll play artists like Glitch mob (and it's individual members Boreta, Kraddy, ediT), and Crystal Method. Not every track is blow-your-ears out, but if you're looking for sounds and beats not quite dubstep, this is pretty close I think.
Live Like We're Dying- This is a singer/song writer and alternative station. Made out of the song Live Like We're Dying by Kris Alan, it's seeded with artists like Train, The Script, and One Republic. I don't listen to this one that much, but it's pretty straight forward in it's music selection.
Mraz Radio- This one is similar to the one above, but for people who listen to a lot of this kind of music, there's a slight difference. Artists seeded on this station are Parachute, Jason Mraz, Owl City, and Jack Johnson.
Solo Guitar/Piano radio-This one is one of my more chill stations, made from Andy Mckee, Antoine Dufour, and the track Maybe, by Yiruma. Unfortunately Mckee and Dufour are very technical players, so sometimes this station spits out a lot of tracks that are very technical to play, but aren't very ear pleasing unless you're a finger style guitarist yourself. I've done some clearing out of this station, but still working on it.
I could go on and on, but those are my most listened to stations. Anyone who's curious can look into my profile and look for something they might like here:

Thats why I included the part about last.fm and iheartradio, you can use any service you want, just share your music ^_^. I am pretty well versed in the suckage that pandora brought when it realized that its business plan could apparently not keep up with certain parts of europe. Well at least thats my understanding of it, maybe it wasn't business but implimentation? I guess it doesn't matter, if you have an amazing radio station or artist you would love to share on any form of internet radio or soundcloud, please do :D.
