Shonan Beach FM, based in Japan. 'Lofi Japanese jazz', I guess? When I lived in a house with a HomePod I had a shortcut hey Siri, Shonan Beach! that was activated most mornings. This was on all day as a low-volume background track. Love it.
One unfortunate property of radio.garden is it doesn’t give you the actual stream links (IIRC it proxies the M3Us through its own server), because lock-in I guess? I’d be happy to be proven wrong here, because the site is otherwise excellent.
I came upon a French-language radio station catalogue a while ago, and that did have the original links, but I’ve lost the tab since then :( ETA: It was https://www.programmes-radio.com/en/streaming/, and I was misremembering: they don’t show the original playlist link either, but they do use it in their streaming widget, so it’s a only short trip to the Network tab of the browser’s devtools away.

Thanks! I typically access through Apple Music, which itself goes via TuneIn. Not a delightful experience, but the only one that works on a HomePod.

Interesting, I haven't heard of this station before, but most of the Shonan area has the vibe of a surf village so the music pretty much matches that vibe. Sounds like a station I'll visit more often.

(I was in Australia, timezone-adjacent. YMMV if you're connecting at 03:00 Tokyo time. Also they do a lot of talking on the weekends.)

EDIT: I meant whiping the llamas ass!
