For those of you who haven’t found it yet, there is a really good Dieselpunk web site located at http://www.dieselpunks.org with tons of great information and picture galleries. Don’t waste any time go on over and take a look,  it’s really worth it !

If you haven’t already found SomaFM yourself,  you should really give it a listen.

SomaFM is a listener-supported, commercial-free internet-only radio station. This means no advertising or annoying commercial interruptions.

My two personal favorite stations are “Mission Control” and “Space Station”. There’s plenty more to choose from so it’s definitely worth taking a look.

You can find SomaFM here – [LINK]

For those on operating systems besides something windows based, you can listen with the VLC media player.
