Sonos has announced a series of new artist-curated radio stations, coming to Sonos Radio and Sonos Radio HD. D’Angelo, FKA twigs, Björk, and the Chemical Brothers have been announced as curators; the first station to go live will be D’Angelo’s Feverish Fantazmagoria program, which begins airing January 13. After that will come FKA twigs’ main squeeze (February 10), Björk’s 21 years worth of wave files liquidated into a stream (February 24), and the Chemical Brothers’ Radio Chemical (March 2).
Sonos has also announced a new rap and hip-hop station, Blacksmith Radio, curated by artist manager Corey Smyth, as well as a podcast called Object of Sound, set to be hosted by poet, writer, and Pitchfork contributor Hanif Abdurraqib. The first two episodes of Object of Sound, which arrive January 13, feature special guests Jenna Wortham, Kimberly Drew, Sudan Archives, and Jeff Tweedy. New episodes drop every Friday, beginning on January 15 with an episode featuring Moses Sumney.
