Ideas: Create Station based on Description, rather than Artist/Song

It'd be awesome if we could create a station based on a description of the type of music we want it to include (examples: "80's and 90's rock and roll"; "hard-driving Viking or similar chant with heavy percussion"; "easy listening jazz with no vocals", etc.), rather than knowing a few examples already, creating a station from those, and then spending time curating it with thumbs to try to teach the system what the station is supposed to sound like.

Obviously, some descriptions might be too specific (or general), but modern LLMs should be able to handle most requests, I'd imagine.

Hi @Thvor

Welcome to community and thanks for sharing your feedback!

I can see how being able to describe the type of music you’re looking for when creating a station could make it easier to get closer to the listening experience you want from the start.

While this isn’t currently an option on Pandora, I’m happy to pass along your feedback. The examples you provided are helpful and appreciated.

Thanks for taking the time to share your idea with the Community!
