Introducing Ragam Radio: listen to tracks from your own ragam selections!

Introducing:

Rāgam Radio

Rāgam radio gives you a link to a random YouTube track from @ranjanimalavi's database of over 120,000 Carnatic music tracks, from a list of rāgams you select. Reload the page to get a new, random track!

Rāgam Radio can be used to:
- Listen to random tracks from your favorite set of rāgams
- Discover new compositions and artists all while listening to familiar rāgams
- Learn a new rāgam
- As a beginning rasikā, teach you to distinguish between two or more rāgams
- As an advanced rasikā, teach you to distinguish between two very close rāgams
- Host a quiz!
- ...and more.

Rāgam Radio uses the wonderful, open source Carnatic YouTube database from here. Also see this rasikas.org thread. Thanks a ton to @ranjanimalavi for making these types of things possible!


Dear rasikas: I would love to know if you find this useful at all, and other constructive feedback. Thank you, and enjoy!

Updated to make the functionality more obvious.

Guess the ragam: By default, the ragam is not displayed, so you have a chance to identify it. The eye button reveals the ragam.

Next track button: obvious.

Based on feedback: people seem to be unaware that you can select the ragams you want to hear:

[MadChapu]

Added a new feature: you can now also select the languages that you want to hear.

For example, picking "tamil" and "kAnadA" will get RagamRadio to play only Tamil songs in kAnadA.

@vs_manjunath, you're welcome, and glad to hear it's useful!

To clarify: I'm the author of the app. The app uses a database created by ranjanimalavi.

Feel free to send me your feedback, requests, and such in this thread.
