We need Kanye to DJ for an entire day.

Yes please.

 

[Xando]

We need Kanye to DJ for an entire day.

That'd be hilarious.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I like this. Yep, I do.

 

[Vanillalite]

wondered how long it would take until they played Wolf Alice.

Why do you say that?

 

[Hoo-doo]

This song gets a heart from me. I love that you can do that from the lock screen.

 

[LyleLanley]

While the censoring doesn't bother me, since this is all digital and being played on an iPhone, it would be a really cool feature in the future for the app to dynamically play the censored/uncensored version of the song based on the user's preferences.

This feels like something Apple could eventually implement.

 

[infiniteloop]

Why do you say that?

because they're hot right now.

 

[Mesoian]

Turned it off when they played Pharrell's new one twice in a row. That song is bad.

Turned it back on when they played Chemical Brothers though.

It's all over the place. So much so that It's not something that I would depend on to keep me entertained.

 

[Owari]

So far they've played a solid lineup of tracks. I'm digging it.

All over the place... Like a radio station. ^_^

 

[infiniteloop]

lol, snuck that first sponsorship in.

I love that they are tackling every fucking genre.

from Grimey UK shit, to AC/DC, 90's gangsta rap, drum and bass, everything in between.

 

[LyleLanley]

lol, snuck that first sponsorship in.

That felt odd since this is a paid service.

 

[Hoo-doo]

That felt odd since this is a paid service.

Beats 1 is not paid.

 

[LyleLanley]

Beats 1 is not paid.

Is it not? Well that changes things. I assumed it was part of the Apple Music package.

Listening to it on my Dad's iPad which hasn't yet signed up for Apple Music.

 

[Subterranean]

Enjoying this more than I thought I would. Looking forward to the St Vincent show tonight.

 

[LyleLanley]

Listening to it on my Dad's iPad which hasn't yet signed up for Apple Music.

I haven't signed up for it and I'm listening to it but I just assumed that had something to do with the free trial.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Nah, Beats 1 is free for everyone.

 

[Servbot24]

We need Kanye to DJ for an entire day.

Oh god this would be amusingly horrid. For such an incredible artist, he has such horrible taste.

 

[cjp]

Who's this NYC DJ?

 

[Hoo-doo]

Even though this is my least favorite song off the entire album, i'm still hyped for more Florence.

 

[Mesoian]

All over the place... Like a radio station. ^_^

I mean yes, in a world where radio is becoming more and more irrelevant.

The variety is great, but I don't really know who it's for. It seems like it's trying to be the best of both the streaming and radio worlds, but it doesn't have the best of what makes or made those thrive.

We'll see. It's not necessarily bad, but I'm far from sold.

Even though this is my least favorite song off the entire album, i'm still hyped for more Florence.

I feel like that's the story of the day. The artist rotation is fantastic, but it's like they're playing every bad song of that respective album. It's weird.

 

[Xater]

Oh god this would be amusingly horrid. For such an incredible artist, he has such horrible taste.

He does? That makes me want it to happen even more.

 

[TheAbsolution]

I just realized that it's on a 12 hour loop. Zane's show is on at 12 AM/PM and the same for the other DJ's for their time slots.

 

[billeh]

Ah, the version of Bad Blood (the good one) that isn't available for streaming.

 

[nature boy]

Oh, this doesn't require signing up to Apple Music? Might give it a shot.

 

[ElTorro]

I am digging it so far.

 

[snap0212]

Do you have to enable being able to "heart" stuff? The button is grey for me and does nothing when I tap on it.

 

[iMax]

I just realized that it's on a 12 hour loop. Zane's show is on at 12 AM/PM and the same for the other DJ's for their time slots.

Oh. I just naïvely assumed he had two shows a day. This makes more sense!

 

[entremet]

C'mon, iTunes!

 

[samn]

There needs to be an uncensored simulcast that is gated behind parental restrictions.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Oh. I just naïvely assumed he had two shows a day. This makes more sense!

I imagine as the service proves itself, Apple will add more DJ's in the nighttime hours.

 

[number11]

I imagine as the service proves itself, Apple will add more DJ's in the nighttime hours.

Since this is streamed world wide there is no 'night time'.

That's the annoying thing.. I was interested in listening to the St Vincent show, but apparently it will air at 3am in the UK?

Edit: didn't even read the above posts about there being a 12 hour loop

And repeat 12 hours later in your timezone.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I need my Jaden Smith fix.

Right next to Elton John in that picture. WTF.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Darden looks like Harden

 

[Xando]

Some classic JT, always good

 

[Keyser Soze]

Timberlake is the first truly bad decision made

 

[TheAbsolution]

Argh, When will iTunes release the update? I want to listen to it.

Spoiler

Yes, I do realize the irony of posting an OT of something I can't listen to at the moment.

 

[LyleLanley]

I already hate this song.

 

[snap0212]

Missed a bit of the program. So is this going to be it? Music to fill the time between the next round of "Freeeeeeeedooooom...."?

This might be helpful. While we're waiting for iTunes, you can manually update to add Beats1

Sweet. This works.

 

[MickD]

This is the best thing ever.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Sweet. This song is awesome.

 

[cjp]

Prefer the Bondax remix.

How do I search the stations? I can only get a list.

Click the big + Sign on the bottom. It'll let you search from there.
