MuGlobe: local music from around the world on a map

A world map with a virtual radio station at every point: stop anywhere and hear its local music, with articles on its genres and history.

MuGlobe is a virtual showcase for discovering and listening to local music from very different corners of the planet. It was created by Ed Brakus, a retired American tech professional with a passion for world music.

It works like this: you move around the map and, wherever you stop, a virtual radio station plays music from that area. Information buttons open articles about that music, its genres, its history and how it has evolved. And if you would rather be surprised, the station selector takes you at random to sounds from different places.

It is free and has no advertising. It is supported by voluntary contributions from the people who use it.
