Radiooooo.com is another addition to a growing list of music streaming websites, but it's one with a difference. Visitors are presented with a map of the world, and a series of decades, starting at 1900. Pick a country and a decade and the site creates a playlist for you of music from that time and place. There’s no skip button, you have to listen to songs in full before you can hear the next one.

Music 101’s Tony Stamp was intrigued by this slightly eccentric concept, so he jumped on Skype to talk with Radiooo CEOs Benjamin Moreau and Anne-Claire Troubat, in their home of Paris, France. All the music in this piece was handpicked by Benjamin and Anne-Claire.
