Description
Echoes App:
The Echoes App allows you to listen to Echoes and Echoes Online (subscription required) and explore all the great Echoes content!
Echoes is a daily two-hour music soundscape, distributed by Public Radio International and broadcast on 130 radio stations from Maine to California. With host John Diliberto, a writer for Billboard, Pulse and other magazines, Echoes brings together a wide array of styles, from acoustic to electronic, jazz to space music, the avant-garde to rock. Echoes is a sound that is cross-cultural and trans-millennial, merging cultures and forms, technology and tradition, the ancient past and the possible future.
In addition to the many recordings heard on Echoes, we also produce interview features with popular modern music figures such as Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush and Enya, as well as less well-known known composers such as Dead Can Dance, Steve Roach, and The Orb. Echoesalso produces Living Room Concerts, live performances recorded in musician’s homes or studios and broadcast on Echoes. Concerts thus far have included Mark Isham, Steve Roach, Patrick O’Hearn, Ottmar Liebert, Michael Brook, Robert Fripp, Nightnoise, R. Carlos Nakai, Ancient Future, Sheila Chandra, Adrian Legg, Michael Hedges and many more.
The Echoes App is brought to you by Echoes and built by Public Media Apps.

Ratings and Reviews
GREAT Service - subpar app
Echoes Online / subscription is lovely - definitely recommend. The app itself is not great.
You cannot view songs / playlists from too far ago.
You cannot download anything for offline play.
The current track is not highlighted while playing.
You cannot select which feeds to show in the home page (if you only listen to certain ones, for example).
The status of the track / app is lost very easily - restarting it upon relaunches.
You cannot favorite items / shows.
I am sure there are many features I could think of, but the general point is the app needs quite a bit of work. Again, great service and I still recommend people download the app, but it’s far from perfect.
How to improve
Love the music but I wish it would highlight the song that is playing so I don’t have to figure out which one it is. This is a major point for me. I wish you could also forward past a song you don’t like. When I reopen a program, I wish it would return to the spot I last listened to... if I haven’t finished that particular program. The ability to highlight songs you like would be nice also.
Incredible programming, adequate app
The app meets the basic needs, but it would be awesome to skip to the tracks you want, easily see what song is currently playing, and pick up where you left off in a program when reopening the app. Rock solid program though. I love me some Echoes.
