Apple Music continues to expand its live-hosted radio stations with three new offerings: Apple Musica Uno, Apple Music Club, and Apple Music Chill.
On Tuesday, Apple announced that music fans can tune into a handful of new live-hosted music stations for free, without a subscription. Like Apple's other live-hosted stations, these will feature music experts and artists from around the globe.
"Music is crucial to our health and happiness, and what Apple Music Radio brings is a sense that your music is always there for you, always on, and waiting for you to just tap in," said Zane Lowe, Apple Music's global creative director and lead anchor for Apple Music 1.
"In a world of AI and algorithms, Apple Music Radio is live. It's real people, it's a shared event, and I'm so excited to be broadening that experience to listeners worldwide with three new stations."
Apple Musica Uno
Apple Musica Uno, Apple's new global Latin music station, will feature hot new hits from genres like Musica Mexicana, Latin Pop, tropical, and more. The first song to air on Apple Musica Uno will be Bad Bunny's new release, "EL CLuB."
Apple has tapped charting artist Becky G to serve as the station's official launch host. Other hosts include Rauw Alejandro, Grupo Frontera, Evelyn Sicairos, and Lechero.
Apple Music Club
Those who love dance and electronica can tune into the new Apple Music Club, a station designed to keep the party going anytime, anywhere. It will feature mixes from forward-thinking DJs around the world.
Hosts will include Tim Sweeney and NAINA and feature curated sets from Circoloco, Tomorrowland, The Warehouse Project, and more. The first song set to play on Apple Music Club will be the iconic club track "Big Fun" by Inner City.
Apple Music Chill
For those who prefer a more relaxed listening experience, Apple Music Chill is an excellent option to explore. The station will feature music designed to set the mood but won't be locked to any specific genres.
Additionally, Apple Music Chill will feature "mindful moments meant to remind listeners to make the time to find center and calm," Apple notes.
Hosts will include Brian Eno, Stephan Moccio, and Apple's own Zane Lowe, with Apple Music's Sabi acting as station guide. The first song played on Apple Music Chill will be an exclusive premiere of Beck's new recording of George Harrison's "Be Here Now."
Those who want to tune in to any new stations can do so wherever they listen to Apple Music, including iPhone, iPad, CarPlay, Apple Watch, Apple TV, Mac, HomePod, or on the web at music.apple.com.
In 2020, Apple rebranded Beats 1 to Apple Music 1 and launched Apple Music Hits and Apple Music Country.
