NEW CHANGES. SAME GREAT MUSIC.

Posted by Ed Gomez
Updated Monday September 23rd, 2024

September marks a time of change for EYP, including adjustments to how often we release new music selections for our primary EYP Radio 2024 playlist.

Every Monday, six music selections will be posted to our 2024 playlist. This approach allows both the artists and listeners ample time to experience the music without being overwhelmed by the quantity, thereby distributing the songs more evenly and offering more opportunities for musical discovery.

Every week, we will add on music to the “EYP Radio 2024 Playlist” on Spotify and right here on the rundown. Check back every Monday for the next 6 selections of music for you to listen and discover.

We hope you enjoy this change, as well as more changes to come, as we still strive to help you… Expand Your Playlist!

Hello everyone! I’m Ed from Expand Your Playlist. Join me as I navigate the vast online world and music algorithms in search of fresh tunes. Nine years into this quest, I’m dedicated to discovering underplayed artists, independent talents, and new tracks that deserve airtime. My goal is to Expand My Playlist without charging for inclusion or excluding based on follower count. Our playlists are more than just a collection of songs for views, likes, or streams. They are thoughtfully compiled on Spotify and through our blog posts, offering you, the listener, an exceptional playlist experience to uncover new music and, in turn, Expand Your Playlist!

Thank You and Enjoy!
