Apple announced this morning that it has introduced two new “radio” stations on Apple Music: Apple Music Hits and Apple Music Country.
The hits will feature “the favorite songs of all the 80s, 90s and 2000s”, while Country, unsurprisingly, will feature country music. Both will be almost literally filled with stars that will appear at launch and on normal station screens. Elton John, Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, Carrie Underwood, Lady Gaga, Shania Twain, the Backstreet Boys, Huey Lewis and Alanis Morisette.
In addition, Apple said Beats 1, Apple’s main global radio station, will be renamed Apple Music 1.
Everyone shows up at nine in the morning.
Apple invests in its Radio product.
It’s an attractive way to notice music among the 60 million songs Apple says it offers worldwide. This point of variety is so vast that most of us will touch the surface slightly, but the radio can make us notice new and old music. favorites, without the paralysis of the “paradox of choice” that can accompany the location of a thing to listen to.
It’s also wonderful for the stars to be together with their enthusiasts around their favorite music when concerts and travel erase memories from the pre-Covid era.
One of the new shows, starring Billie Eilish, features the young star with her father on a show titled “Me and Dad Radio”.
“My dad and I have been playing music since I have, and we have to share it with you,” Says Eilish.
A very attractive way to explore ancient music is to let the other people who created it lead the way. So Huey Lewis (remember Huey Lewis and the news?) He did “Radio of the ’80s with Huey Lewis”, with stars from the ’80s and memories of touring, gambling and making music. The Backstreet Boys do the same.
In a way, some of the new radio stations are a bit like celebrity podcasting, with a premium location for the most important stars. It is an evolution of radio communicated, in a sense, with music on the radio.
A radio station, for example, is Home to Gloria Estefan. It presents music, but more commonly conversations.
Apple wants to invest particularly here, because while the company is at the forefront of podcasting and still occupies a leading position, Spotify is attacking hard by bringing podcasting stars like Joe Rogan to its platform exclusively. the impression that you can live very well on Apple podcasts, and vice versa. The main differences, apparently, are conservation, presented on the platform, as well as monetization. Apple Music is a paid service, of course, without a loose ad. supported level.
A vital question stars want to ask themselves is the extent to which they can get a wide audience by focusing on a single platform rather than allowing their screens to appear on all platforms or if they prefer to open their content in a loose service.
