Any way to preview the music DLC's?

Hello, is there any way to preview the music DLC's?
- Cities: Skylines - Rock City Radio
- Cities: Skylines - Relaxation Station
Just to understand whether they are to my liking or not? Could not find anything on Youtube... many thanks!

I vouch for this, also been looking for some kind of preview.

Relaxation Station is available on Spotify
I don't know about Rock City Radio though.

Sooo, if you happen to already be a paying Spotify user who don't get ads there is no reason to buy the DLC then, you can just turn off the in-game music and listen to Relaxation Station from Spotify.

And before anyone says something about contributing to the artists and developers: they get paid either way with their share of any profits made on Spotify, right? No need to buy it twice.

But you will then miss out on the in-game ads.

Thanks, I am sampling that now!

Looking now for a source for sampling "Rock City Radio"... any word from Colossal Order or Paradox?

Heh, Relaxation Station. Those music files came with the ND update. They obviously must have been removed again sometime later.

Regarding "Rock City Radio", I think I've heard that as background music in one of the Paradox streams before MT was released.

Yeah, in the 1.6.2 patch.

I took the leap of faith on the radio stations and bought them all. I've very happy with the quality on all the music, and the ads as well. Top-notch. Very good.

The problem is that there isn't enough of it. It gets repetitive, and that gets tiresome. I find myself switching stations quite often just so I don't hear the same songs and ads every 20-30 minutes.

Also there's a problem where the DJ often says, "Now back to the music" and then it plays another ad. This kinda disturbs the immersion.

I remember playing GTA5 and loving all the in-game radio stations that came with that game. I think it ought to be possible to include at least double the number of tracks and ads on these radio stations without increasing the price, because GTA5 has a lot more tracks that come for free with the base game, yet we are asked here to pay DLC pricing for radio and we're not really getting the quantity we should be getting.

This, this, this and this. Lol I'm too tired to write anything constructive myself.
