Best music in the world - but some technical issues

A few technical issues:

1. Doesn’t work on iOS 14.

2. After pausing the music, you have to completely close the app, then re-open it, to get the music playing again.

Love this app !

I find my self listening to this app way more than I ever thought I would ! :-). The only thing I wish, is that the app was available on the Apple TV 4 and the Mac Pro. I realize on with Mac Pro I can just go the website and stream but an app would be more handy. Other that, I give it a 5 stars !
I have an eclectic taste in music ( anything from classical to metal ) and sometimes I just want something peaceful and happy playing in the background
Very happy to be able to just put this on and let it roll ..... thank you for making theses classic recordings available.

Cheerful background music for less cheerful times

A nice break from the news during the COVID-19 outbreak. May just become a semi permanent addition to our household! I’ve had this app for ages and always enjoyed the odd time I put it on. Great for working or studying too because there are very few lyrics to distract.

Perfect mid-century background music

This is relaxed, beautiful music. Don Draper would hear this at an expensive restaurant in 1955. Perfect for background noise while you chat or work.

Brilliant background music app

The app streams recordings of the background music discs that were played on the Seeburg bgm player back in the day. I do love a bit of cheesy retro music! The app works as it should and is very easy to use. No intrusive adverts. Just stick it on and chill out to the music of a past era.

Beyond Kitsch

This app simply streams music from a popular 1960’s BGM system. It’s wonderfully kitsch, you can hear the pops and crackles of the vinyl records the machine used. Stick it on in the car or at home when you are eating your dinner and be transported to an all together more sophisticated and elegant time 😉

Just right!

The Seeburg 1000 is so cool..I want to go to Rob and Laura Petrie’s house and play charades with Millie and Jerry and enjoy a highball while we all light up a refreshing Kent..

Love it

Heard about this on techmoan, wish you could select categories, Other than that five stars

Would like it but...

Nice music but it doesn’t have the name of what’s playing...something that’s important to me

Definitely try this

I heard about this on a Techmoan video about the Seeburg1000 player (check it out, very interesting video about vintage tech). The sound quality is surprisingly good for 16rpm records. The music is really good for background music. I’ve recently become interested in orchestral and big band music because it’s new to me, and records are very cheap. This music fits in nicely with my exploration. I’ve been listening occasionally for a month and have never heard the same songs, and the music is always good.
