- Online – SomaFM Beat Blender is an internet-only radio station and is not broadcast on FM, AM/MW, LW, DAB Digital Radio, DAB+ or HD Radio.
SomaFM Beat Blender blends midtempo electronic music with deeper house grooves, downtempo rhythms and late-night dance textures. The station has a smoother, more controlled feel than a peak-time club stream, making it a strong fit for working, driving, evening listening or keeping energy up without turning the atmosphere into chaos.
The station’s sound pulls from artists and styles connected to downtempo, trip-hop, deep house and intelligent electronic music. SomaFM highlights names such as Bullitnuts, The Verbrilli Sound, Baby Mammoth, Thievery Corporation, Boards of Canada, Röyksopp and LTJ Bukem, which tells you exactly where this channel lives: warm basslines, polished beats, melodic details and electronic music with proper depth.
Based in San Francisco, SomaFM has built its reputation on hand-curated internet radio channels with clear musical identities. Beat Blender is not trying to be a generic dance station. It is tighter than that: a carefully selected stream of deep house, downtempo chill and midtempo electronica that keeps the pulse going without battering the listener.
Notable Presenters & Shows: Beat Blender is music-directed by Shawn Blosser, also listed by SomaFM as DJ Shawn. Blosser started BeatBlender in the late 1990s after coworkers enjoyed the music he played from his own CD collection, eventually setting up an office Shoutcast server before the channel became part of SomaFM. The station is not built around traditional presenter-led shows; its identity comes from Blosser’s hand-picked music selection and continuous deep electronic curation.
