TheBlast.FM New Stream Addresses

TheBlast.FM stations recently changed streaming addresses for better connectivity from our main encoding site in Portland.

Streams are now hosted in San Diego and are much smoother, as internet routing changes had made the connection from Portland to the Washington, D.C. metro much less stable.

If  you are listening on a third party media player, app or system on which TheBlast.FM stations don’t seem to be working anymore, and you can load our new streaming addresses manually, those are found here:  https://www.theblast.fm/home/all-streams-all-major-media-players/

Please notify us of any stream aggregators you use that need to be updated with streaming addresses.
