Playlist 03.21 now available on Spotfy
Dear Listeners,
with all the chaos of the last few days, I nearly forgot to tell you that my monthly playlist is ready for you to listen on Spotify. It includes all the new entries in our general radio rotation. The songs are not necessarily new, but have never been added before to our radio rotation.
Milano Lounge is back on Online Radio Box
Dear listeners,
I am glad to inform you that Milano Lounge is back on Online Radio Box with the new streaming address.
Online Radio Box is one of the most important platforms for listening to radio stations from all over the world.
When you listen to Milano Lounge via Onlineradiobox, you will be able to see the title of the current song and the playlist of recently played songs.
Milano Lounge is back on Tunein
Dear Listeners,
I am glad to inform you that Milano Lounge is back on Tunein, with the new streaming address.
Tunein is one of the most important platforms for listening to radio stations from all over the world.
With Tunein you can listen to over 120,000 stations (including Milano Lounge) on different devices, such as mobile phones, tablets, Smart TVs, X Box One consoles and in-car if you have an internet connected audio system.
Tunein adds some advertising when you connect to Milano Lounge, this is not our decision, because – as you probably know – Milano Lounge is commercial-free and financed by me and donations from listeners.
New server and new stream for Milano Lounge
IMPORTANT UPDATE 10 March 2021
Unfortunately, a big fire destroyed an OVH data center in Strasbourg (France), including the new server.
Luckily, nobody was injured or killed, but the station was OFF. In a hurry, I had to set up a NEW-NEW SERVER (Oh no, not again!!!) with a different company and notify all apps and platforms of our new streaming address.
The new-new server has been set up THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF OUR LISTENERS, who made donations to help us.
I am so grateful for your donations, your words of encouragement, your worries that you couldn’t find the station anymore…..
Thank you again and keep listening to Milano Lounge to the NEW-NEW SERVER at this address:
https://centova.wlservices.org:4003/stream
Like a Phoenix, Milano Lounge rises again from ashes!
That means REBIRTH
With Love,
Roberto
P.S. If you hear my voice on the radio telling you to visit milanoloungeradio.com , it means that you are not connected to the NEW-NEW SERVER 🙂
Milano Lounge has moved to a new SSL stream, with a new powerful server and lots of room to accommodate all of our listeners….. and you are so many!!!
Yet, I hope that the audience can still grow in the future: the new server has the capacity to accommodate 1,000 simultaneous listeners. At the moment, there are between 400-500 listeners connected, so we are only at 50% capacity……..
Imagine: It’s like having a big room with 1,000 people inside, only that this room is online, which has become even more important after the Covid-19 problems.
We can virtually meet in a safe environment together, thanks to the music!
I’m very grateful that listeners of Milano Lounge are creating a real community online: you are so attentive and I love when you send me messages, pics or videos of you or your family/friends listening to Milano Lounge.
Also, thank you for your donations via PayPal and for your suggestions, many of which I implemented on the radio channel, although I can’t not reveal my “secret formula” for obvious reasons….
Ahahaha there is no secret formula, I am only putting my heart into it, just like you!
Love,
Roberto

Situation after the fire of 10 March 2021
Dear listeners,
after the fire that destroyed a datacenter in Strasbourg and put our station OFF, the situation looks really bad. Our provider still doesn’t know if/when the service will be restored. Apparently, it will take more than 7 days.
For this reason, I have moved the station to a new server (Oh no, not again!). The new server has a capacity for 2,500 simultaneous listeners (the previous one had 1,000) so, if no accidents happen, it will be more than enough for all our listeners.
This is the NEW STREAM ADDRESS for Milano Lounge:

A big fire destroyed the servers of Milano Lounge Radio
Hello everybody,
unfortunately, last night a serious fire devastated the building that houses the OVH data centers in Strasbourg, on which the Milano Lounge Radio broadcast servers also depend.
For this reason, the radio is currently not reachable from any platform

A non-commercial radio model, against FM stations and social networks
Dear Listeners,
I can’t cope with social networks anymore. They are time consuming and I have decided to spend that time for selecting good music for you, instead of on social networks.
Plus, I do not like their commercial policy. This is completely the opposite of what I am. I think that advertising is killing also FM radios in Italy, with 20 minutes of ad every hour, not to mention that in the other 40 minutes you’ll listen only to the same songs sponsored by majors and useless blah blah blah of djs.
For me, advertising is also killing social networks, with an ad coming up every 2-3 posts, not to mention that i am now getting ads also on Whatsapp and Messenger. This is really too invasive, and this is not the way I would like the future world to be.
Milano Lounge is my personal radio station, created for the pleasure of sharing my favourite music with other people, and my idea is to do something completely different from FM radios.
At the moment, there are 1,115 tracks in the day rotation, with songs repeating every 3 days, always in a different order, plus 485 tracks in the night rotation, with songs repeating every 2 days (in different order).
It is not a financial empire or a corporation, and you donations are really helpful when I need to pay licenses and other monthly fees to keep the radio online. If you wish to make a donation, here is the link for PayPal:

Please let me know what you think, you can email me at musclerob@gmail.com
Thank you,
Roberto
