tower of the octopus the octopus fruitbat games blog skip to content home about ← older posts empirically the best radio stations in the world. posted on december 27, 2013 by metatim if you just want the answer to that link-bait headline question, scroll down to the picture of the map with every country scratched off. of course, methodology is critical, and you should really conduct your own study, so stick around for the details of quite how to do that. but perhaps you’re not convinced of the need to do that, so first, as is traditional before the introduction of a ridiculous solution, let me sell you the problem. if you listen to music in an office, the advent of spotify is a disaster. superficially, of course, spotify is clearly better than a regular music radio station, in that it has no ads, and most importantly you can put on exactly what you want to hear. oh yes, listening to what you actually want to hear – clearly the best of all things to listen to. or is it??? there are two big problems with this in an office setting. one is the burden of choice. you want perhaps 8 hours of music in a day, 5 days a week, without much repetition. that’s actually a lot of work to put together, and when trying this we perhaps better understand why people get paid to make radio happen. the second problem is consensus. when there were five of us in the start-up i worked for, stubble & glasses, we discovered the only artist we all liked was paul simon. by the end of the first day, we knew we were going to need another office music strategy. and then we hired a bunch more people – some of whom, weirdly, didn’t like paul simon. the obvious solution is also terrible with radio, you accept that you’re not going to enjoy everything. so perhaps your office needs a communal spotify playlist , which everyone can contribute to, and which also solves the tremendous burden of choice problem, since you’ve divided up that labour. and you like some of what you get to hear, and some you have to tolerate, but it all sort of evens out in the end. except that it doesn’t. because when you pick songs for a communal list, your individual incentives are not aligned with the group incentives. as a diverse group, your collective enjoyment will be higher if people pick the blandest, most widely-appealing artists they like. but as an individual, you want to listen to music that really speaks to you (which is usually not bland, and often not widely-appealing), and you also don’t want to “waste” your part of the list by choosing something that somebody else might add anyway. so you’ll be tempted to add the least bland, most personal, and least universally popular music you know. and so will everyone else. excerpt from the office skype chat while trying out a shared spotify playlist strategy and you’ll hate it, and eventually each other. what about last.fm or pandora, then? also terrible in this context. both services are brilliantly designed for an individual, but in much the same way as the above, what’s good for one is usually bad for the group. unless you know how to make large physical love/ban buttons for the whole office to enjoy, but even then the service is going to get very confused if you have any diversity in music tastes. but radio is so 19th century! i know, this seems insane. with all the developments in technology and music services, there just has to be a way that the internet makes the concept of radio better. well, there is. and i’m going to stop phrasing minor problems in a melodramatic fashion and using subheads in a faux conversational style so i can tell you about it. what if i told you that you can listen to radio from anywhere in the world you would probably shrug, because you already knew that. tunein radio and others have facilitated this for a while now. and with 70,000 radio stations, it doesn’t seem as if you’re making the burden-of-choice problem any better. how are you supposed to find anything good? here’s how. radio station world tour: the plan listen to at least one radio station from every country in the world, using a scratch-off map keep notes on all the stations you listen to now simply rotate through your favourite discoveries! radio station world tour: the details i will immediately confess that this solution is actually insane. but it’s insane in a good way. because as soon as you start, you run into definition problems. delicious, arbitrary definition problems. when we tried this at stubble & glasses, here’s how we solved them. how long counts as a listen? 4 hours of listening per country. long enough for you to get a good feel for the station, short enough that you can survive even the least palatable options. what counts as a country’s radio station? if it’s listed as being in the country on tunein radio, it counts, especially if it’s wrong. (we’re not convinced that a-net radio really broadcasts from antarctica, for example. but it definitely counts.) what counts as a country on the scratch-off map? everything that is named on the scratch-off map, especially if it’s wrong. (south sudan isn’t marked. obscure islands in the arctic are named, and therefore count.) inevitably, definition problems resist even these seemingly simplistic answers, so if you really want to do this, check the nitty gritty section below. what actually happens if you attempt this there are 193 members of the united nations. if you used our 4-hour minimum listen rule, you could in theory get through 10 per working week, and in this way you could be done inside of 4.5 months . in practice, if you use the map as your guide to what counts as a country, and if you split up large countries on the basis that that would be too easy (see nitty gritty below), and if you accept that i’m massively overblowing this by saying it solves office radio and you only manage to listen to 3 world radio stations a week (as we aimed to do), you’re now up to 228 listens and a 1.5 year project. oh, but when you get towards the end, you’re going to discover all the problems with your seemingly simple and elegant definitions, as you search for radio stations for arctic islands with populations under 1,000, and okay, you can come up with something to get around that (see nitty gritty), but this is going to slow you down. so much, in fact, that the business folded when we were 1.6 years into the project and 93% done. so i took the map with me and finished it mostly alone. our listening progress. note the inflection point around march 2013 when it gets much harder. the nitty gritty 1 – peculiarities of the luckies scratch map the luckies scratch map we used appears to use the gall stereographic projection of the globe. this projection attempts to compromise between accurately representing the relative areas of the countries and accurately representing their shape, which sounds like a good idea, except of course that this means it achieves neither. as usual, the problem of area is more noticeable, and although it’s not as extreme as the mercator projection , the area of territories towards the north and south poles are significantly overstated. perhaps this is okay if you’re using the map to more conventionally record your travels, as getting to antarctica or some of the isles of the far north is a pretty big deal, and the bigness of that deal is then represented by the amount of scratching you get to do (especially for antarctica). but in the case of a radio tour, it’s unsettling. there are also some covered rectangles below the scratch map which you are invited to remove if you’re visiting certain specific countries. it turns out these reveal a range of oddly-chosen pieces of trivia, only those for iceland and fiji being particularly useful if you were planning to go there. the final rectangle is to be scratched off if you are visiting “luckies island”, which you may notice does not exist, but is nonetheless shown on the map in the mediterranean. the inclusion of this kind of mountweazel may b
