Music streaming apps have become very popular in recent years. These almost always come in handy, are extremely convenient, and relatively affordable. These are mostly focused on what the user wants, like connecting your favorite songs to similar artists.

To those who are into a more random approach, however, a new app is recently (and literally) making waves: meet Radio Garden, an app that will allow users to access live internet streams from radio stations all over the world.

According to Spin, Radio garden allows users navigate a Google Earth-type interface. The app is designed and produced by Dutch creative companies Studio Puckey and Studio Moniker, in collaboration with the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision.

Aside from the random music you'll get to hear, you will also be able to hear--and marvel at--radio jingles and station IDs all over the world. This may not be for everyone--especially those who actually pay money to get rid of ads--but try it out and you just might surprise yourself.

The process is simple: visit the Radio.Garden website, wait for the globe to load, and see the many green dots. Swing your mouse over any of these dots and voila, you're listening to a local radio station.

"By bringing distant voices close, radio connects people and places. Radio Garden allows listeners to explore processes of broadcasting and hearing identities across the entire globe," said Golo Föllmer, one of the people behind the project.

"From its very beginning, radio signals have crossed borders. Radio makers and listeners have imagined both connecting with distant cultures, as well as re-connecting with people from 'home' from thousands of miles away - or using local community radio to make and enrich new homes," he added.

There's been no word yet on whether this app would move on to greater things (ie. turn into a phone app). Meantime, however, keep spinning Radio Garden globe. You never know what you'll end up listening to next.
