radio stream with news, music and reports? 2017/1/16 19:30
Hi.

Could anyone recommend me a Japanese radio station, that has a live stream, and a mix of music, news and reports?

My vocabulary is quite limited, and a lot of websites of Japanese radio stations have no english version, which makes finding such a stream myself a bit difficult.

Thanks for any help. :)

Thanks for the suggestions.

No, I'm not living in Japan. I just wanted to improve my feel for the language a bit by sometimes listen to japanese radio streams at work. That's why a mix of music and spoken content would be perfect.

I'll try out the suggestions. :)
