MUMBAI: Geodesic’s Mundu Radio has been roped in by Sri Lanka’s mobile carrier Dialog Telekom to initiate an internet radio service called ‘Music Station.’
The Mundu Radio platform is powered to offer internet radio service to consumers across mobile networks. The service has niche genres and international content across genres such as such as Pop, Rock, Hip-hop, Jazz and much more. The technology is designed to scale seamlessly, allowing unlimited channels to be added to the offering.
It has a large number of licensed internet radio stations and is designed and optimised for mobile phones. It works across 2G and 3G data networks.

Dialog Music Station would offer Dialog subscribers the ease of tuning into radio stations, streaming 24×7, and listen to music in a wider variety of genres. Geodesic has earlier also provided Mundu radio to major telecom players like Idea, Tata Teleservices Ltd.

Today it encompasses infotainment, lifestyle, services and much more and Dialog has been at the forefront of presenting value-added innovations to customers in the South Asian region. In delivering superior value to consumer experience, it is our continuous philosophy to build lasting relations with like-minded entities, and our association with Geodesic will complement our individual competencies.”
