Tilderadio

Link: https://tilderadio.org I can't start without mentioning tilderadio. Tilderadio is the online radio of the tildeverse. Members of the tildeverse request time slots and stream things to their liking. There are shows dedicated to music playlists and talk shows. Highly recommended.

Anonradio

Link: https://anonradio.net One of oldest pubnixes is is the Super Dimension Fortress Public Access UNIX system, or SDF for short. The folks at sdf maintain anonradio.net. Like tilderadio, anonradio operates on a volunteer basis, with DJs being members of the sdf. There's a wide selection of music shows. Rock, synthpop, metal, electronic, dubiousness, partying, languages, old and new. There's something for almost everybody. Link for media player https://anonradio.net:8443/anonradio

SOMA FM

Link: https://somafm.com Soma fm is an entirely listenersupported independent radio with as many as 30 channels dedicated to different music genres. Do you like a mysterious sountrack in the background? The secret agent channel might be of interest to you. Are you hacking together that project that has been keeping you awake for many nights? Check out the DEF CON radio channel. You haven't had enough of 70s style rock and wish you could hear more of it? Here's Left Coast 70s. You prefer the synthpop of the 80s? Here's some more too at Underground 80s. And many more channels for you to explore, playing obscure and popular tracks within the genre of the station. Link for media player There are too many channels to list all of them, see the webpage for the other channels for more ways to listen to them. http://ice.somafm.com/secretagent http://ice.somafm.com/defcon http://ice.somafm.com/u80s

Lainchan radio

Link: https://lainon.life While lainchan is itself an anonymous image board, with all the controversy that entails, their radio project has given me many hours of enjoyment and i believe it should be treated seperately from the place it comes from. It has 4 channels. Cyberia, for electronic music in the style of the popular japanese anime series Serial Experiments Lain's Cyberia Club. Cafe, for touhou arrangements, relaxing soundtracks and mellow pop-rock songs. This is my favorite channel and the radio i listen to the most. Swing, for swing, jazz and blues music. Very soothing, energizing or both! Everything, a combination of all previous channels.

KMFA 89.5

Link: https://www.kmfa.org This is an old-school radio station located in Austin, Texas, that happens to have an online streaming channel that fits within the constraints of this guide. Their focus is classical music. Their offer ranges from Baroque, to the Modern period, including classical arrangements of contemporary pop songs. Chamber, Cantata, Concerto, Mass, Opera, and so on, you can find all of those here. This is the single best radio for all of you classical music fans.

R/a/dio

Link: https://r-a-d.io This radio station is also part of the community of an anonymous image board, but it can be safely ignored. They focus mostly on anime and game soundtracks, if that's your jam, you will probably like this. It's also possible to request songs, but i haven't used this feature, so i don't know if it works.

Hackers.town radio

Link: https://hackers.town Hackers.town is a fediverse instance that also happens to have an radio stream that i discovered by chance. Their music selection is very eclectic, so whatever label i might throw will probably be too narrow. I can't recommend it enough, very nice tunes there!
