D.R.A.M to Wolf Alice. Varied indeed.

I agree. I like my music all over the place and this is hitting all the right notes for me right now.

 

[MThanded]

This song is hard.

They have done a great job of choosing songs so far.

 

[sometimes i game]

The first song I do not like that I hear on Beats 1

 

[TheAbsolution]

I'm not liking this song. First time in hours is an OK ratio though.

 

[Marv_79]

They played a UK grime tune earlier which surprised me. What do folk from over the pond make of UK grime? I'd imagine the was a lot of 'what the fuck is this shit!?!' Being said lol

this is part of the reason I'm happy with the UK hosts. Grime is fine by me!

 

[Cyport]

I'm finding the song info takes a while to come through. Sometimes not till the end of the song.

 

[captscience]

Do they have a playlist for what's been played posted anywhere?

 

[Keyser Soze]

The only one available is in a weird place...

[kiguel182]

It's the update out for itunes yet? I have nothing

 

[TheAbsolution]

Looks like more of a rap format now haha.

 

[subrock]

anyone having trouble loading the radio tab?

Actually, the more I look into I can't play any audio from the Music app. Weird.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

We need Virgil Abloh to DJ for an entire day.

Fixed,

that's who's usually behind his ones and twos.

 

[SyenceLabb]

Oh my goodnesss.........oh mah.


whooo

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

What's a 'British' accent?

I mean "English"

I'm just kidding though. I don't mind the accent.

 

[Mononoke]

I know Virgil. Would still be cool to have Kanye go off on rants in between.

I can't believe iTunes STILL hasn't updated. WTF

 

[rinse82]

This might be covered already, but is there no web interface ala spotify or google music to stream music?

I like to stream at work and can't install iTunes without admin access on my work laptop.

Nope. I hope they add that soon.

 

[number11]

I know it's day 1, but the connect feature seems to be lacking. Hopefully this isn't just another Ping.

According to Apple CS reps it's coming in 45mins, this is a rumour and could be bullshit.

Don't Ping me, bro.

 

[subrock]

Can you not heart songs on Beats 1? Trying to heart this track but it's not letting me.

edit: fuck. another track that isn't available on the service I guess. Labels are fucking dumb. Cool ways to promote piracy.

 

[teruterubozu]

New Foals. Nice.

 

[MickD]

Wow this london female dj is killing it!!! Beats 1 is nice breath of fresh air to music.

Wasn't a fan early on, shame on me for dropping out of the broadcast early. I like Foals.

Damnit, must resist not listening until iTunes is out.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

There's new Foals?

 

[teruterubozu]

There's new Foals?

New Single. Album is out late August.

 

[thefro]

Just updated and started listening with the Foals song. 3/3 so far.

 

[LumpOfCole]

I wonder what Jaden Smith would be playing for us, if he were DJ

 

[TheAbsolution]

Liking the last song of her set. Her show was good.

 

[billeh]

This D.R.A.M. song totally have some Wii Shop vibe to it, and are those Mario coins?

 

[Berna]

From what I read (+ memory), it seems it's the Star Road music from Super Mario World.

 

[Delusibeta]

ITT: people discover music radio for the first time in years. Pretty much all of Beats 1's ideas they've ripped off the BBC. (Playlister, anyone?)

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Damn, I listened almost all day so far and now it's time to drive home.

Even took one of their hosts.

btw, I get a kick out of the Apple invented 'x' |OT| threads. The titles amuse me.

 

[Zeyphersan]

Man I hate this song, "Where Are Ü Now". That higher pitched sound is just so unpleasant

 

[CharminUltra]

Apple reinvents reinvention.

Spoiler

Again.

 

[antipode]

Hahaha. "Thought I wasn't going to play a Hov record first??"

 

[985boi]

Anybody remember what was that Wolf Alice song they was playing earlier? I was in the middle of listening to it and got interrupted .

They did poach a load of BBC Radio 1 producers so it makes sense.

Looking at the playlist it looks like a Radio 1 evening show mixed in with a few 6music tracks. Its good that they're giving some exposure to upcoming acts as i imagine few people outside of the UK are aware of radio stations like this.

 

[SeroTyler]

Should've just gotten Funkmaster Flex.

 

[Ferny]

Was waiting for Ebro all day.

I wasn't disappointed

 

[victreeb3l]

Pretty satisfied with Beats 1. Overall great song selections today.

 

[number11]

"I'm just letting the music talk"... While talking over the music.

It has a different meaning

 

[Chittagong]

Does their tool not allow jingles between tracks?

 

[Dartastic]

This station has been completely killing it all day. Nas to Lauryn Hill to Beastie Boys to Hov? Yes. YES.

Can you get the radio stations without paying for the monthly subscription? Also, if you do go with the monthly subscription, it includes iTunes Match, right?
