SomaFM Groove Salad Classic (128k AAC) 🇺🇸

SomaFM Groove Salad Classic is a curated internet radio station specializing in foundational downtempo, ambient, and chillout electronica. Distinct from the original Groove Salad, Classic offers a predictable and consistent listening experience, showcasing tracks that have stood the test of time within the genre. Unlike algorithm-driven playlists, SomaFM's founder, Rusty Hodge, and other curators hand-pick the music, ensuring a high-quality flow of relaxing and atmospheric sounds. The '128k AAC' designation indicates the audio stream's quality, using the Advanced Audio Coding standard at 128 kilobits per second for an efficient balance of sound quality and bandwidth. Groove Salad Classic is commercial-free, supported entirely by listeners. SomaFM also offers variants like Groove Salad Beat Blender and Deep Space One.
