How to listen to music from yesteryear with today's technology

listen to old-time music on the web

This becomes a topic that will surely interest who lived the classical music of the 60s and maybe a little earlier. Despite the fact that the YouTube portal and a few others, usually have different types of musical themes hosted, it is a completely difficult task to have to search and find one that belongs to a past decade.

Fortunately, there are certain resources on the web that we could be using at this very moment to try to listen to these topics; in this article we will mention two suggestions that you can use at any time to listen to (and perhaps download) that music of yesteryear, all using little easy-to-follow tricks.

1. Listen to old-time music with The Nostalgia Machine

The first alternative that we will mention at this time comes from the hand of an online application that has the name of The Nostalgic Machine, which offers only two buttons to find those old songs:

  • year. With this button, which is a drop-down menu, the user will have the opportunity to choose a specific year.
  • Hit me. After having chosen the year we will only have to press this button.

Immediately a large number of topics will appear in a grid or grid, and we must select the one we want to listen to at that moment. Most of them are hosted on YouTube, so we could get to download them if we are interested in having them saved on our local hard drive. The only problem that occurs here is that the songs do not appear with any type of additional category, that is, that all they are interspersed without distinction of country, gender, language and much more.

2. Using the radiooooo beta project

We wanted to leave this other alternative at the end as a kind of finishing touch, because this project radiooooo offers us better alternatives when trying to listen to music Although, we must anticipate that this online service is still in a beta stage, so there could be a certain number of errors or incompatibilities with your Internet browser.
