NRK P1+

NRK P1+ does something rare in radio: it just plays the music. No DJs. No chatter. Just tracks, one after another, from the Norwegian public broadcaster's deep archives. You'll hear everything from a-ha's early synth-pop to Aurora's ethereal vocals, with plenty of indie and folk in between. It's a perfect window into Norwegian music culture, especially if you're curious what's playing beyond the Eurovision circuit. The playlist leans a bit safe at times, too much soft rock for my taste, but the deep cuts make up for it. Stick around for a late-night slot when they dig into obscure Nordic jazz…
