EPIC CLASSICAL - Classical Background Music

EPIC CLASSICAL - Classical Background Music is at 518 in a listing of 1,409. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

8 stations in Germany lead with chill and EPIC CLASSICAL - Classical Background Music is one of them, though the tag does not make the country's headline list. Across the whole directory 42 stations use it first, so the rail below runs well past Germany.

On the same tag worldwide it is 11 of 42, which is inside the top quarter of every chill station the directory carries.

The encode is 192 kbps against a country median of 128. Comfortably above the middle of Germany's listing without being one of its outliers.

The audio comes from stream.epic-classical.com, and 20 other stations in Germany are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of Germany's listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.
