Radical.FM To Go Offline This Weekend

Stockholm, June 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radical.FM, the streaming service that garnered great reviews throughout its various incarnations, will take its live service offline effective tomorrow. Radical is selling all assets including its unparalleled BroadCast music and TALK technology. Radical's platform allows any user to DJ live radio shows with unlimited reach. Social by its nature, TALK was designed to help any service grow its user base while simultaneously increasing engagement. With the biggest companies in the world from Apple to Google now competing with the biggest streamers on the planet from Pandora to Spotify, there is a need to differentiate services with more than just expensive artist exclusives.

"We've taken all the things old-school radio is great at ? like live personalities and concurrent listening ? digitally supercharged them for the streaming era, and the response to TALK has been exclusively positive" says CEO Thomas McAlevey. "Our platform's IP incorporates many firsts and trade secrets, but despite our quality, and the support of our users and shareholders, Radical simply lacks the muscle to reach the full potential of this tech on our own. TALK deserves a strong owner, just listen: https://youtu.be/pbmBmS87UmY."

Radical will go offline to cut costs while seeking an established partner this year. Radical can offer a powerful differentiator to a music streaming service, or a turnkey streaming platform to a terrestrial radio network looking to get a leg up on the digital future.

Radical is free and will work on iOS and Chrome for another 24-48hrs.
