I love SomaFM so much. Been a listener for around 20 years, maybe a bit longer. Nice surprise to see this posted today, it must be fate that I happened to wearing my Soma FM t-shirt to work.
ETA: Other stations I listen to sometimes (that have web sites anyway):
Your comment made me stop and calculate and I was surprised to find I’m similar. When I really need to focus groove salad has always been my thing. Sometimes I find myself reluctant to putting it on because I know I’ll get sucked into the task and not surface again for a long time.

Yeah, it's my go to "heads down" music. It's the only mobile app I've ever paid for[0]. Wish I was in SF to celebrate with everyone.
I've been using SomaFM for some time now since I saw someone mentioned it on HN a bit back. Synphaera Radio is one of the few sources of music I can listen to that helps me focus rather than being a distraction. Most of the music is the perfect amount of background noise to prevent my mind from wondering.

I have been listening to groove salad since high school. I was happy to run into the team at defcon and express my gratitude. Also, if you love the station, don't forget to donate/support[1] them.
Discovered groove salad from watching Notch take part in ludum dare game jams. I quickly adopted it as my coding music as well. So great to see they're still going.

I love their SF radio with police chatter - I can't explain, but it's just so engrossing. Genuinely my favourite.
Also, I learned about SomaFM in the past from HN too :)
