“Tune in to radio's playlist”

Radio stations have mastered music curation to build the perfect playlists - understanding how to get the right mix of familiar and new, genre and adventurous, and exactly what their audience will want to listen to - but radio as a music experience is full of inconvenience and interruptions - there are ads and presenters, endless repeats of the same tracks, no way to skip them, no way to do anything when you discover one actually you love, and if you happen to be not be listening when it plays, well, that’s it. Recast aims to bring radio and music streaming together to build the best of both worlds. We take those playlists of radio stations, from all over the world, and then let you listen to them as you would any other streaming music service. Recast is now available for iPhone (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/recast-tune-in-to-radios-playlist/id974638569)
