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.

User Reviews

Echoes App delivers strong audio content—ambient music curated by John Diliberto and on-demand access to Echoes broadcasts and related media—earning praise for its music quality and convenience. However, it faces repeated reliability and UX issues across multiple reviews: streams frequently skip, stall, or restart; playback controls are limited or missing (no scrub, no current track highlight, no resume after reopening); some users report crashes, login problems, and incompatibilities on older devices. Many want offline listening and cross-device integration (e.g., Sonos or iTunes compatibility). Update responsiveness has improved playability for some users.

Pros

Excellent, curated music selection and discovery
On-demand listening and flexible access to Echoes content
Subscription provides valuable access to Echoes Online content
App is reasonably easy to navigate and use
Notable improvements in playability after updates

Cons

Unreliable streaming: frequent mid-program drops, skipping, and long load times
Missing essential playback features: cannot scrub/seek, see current track, or resume from last position; no favorites and offline download
Stability and performance issues: crashes on startup and relaunch issues
Device/OS compatibility problems on older iPads and reported login issues
Lack of cross-device integration and limited customization options for feeds

I’m always looking for interesting music I’ve never heard before. John Diliberto quite often fits the bill. Never had a problem with the Echoes app. Thanks to all that make this possible.
