It's the only music streaming service that takes discovery seriously, and it's the only one I use.
- mojuba 7y agoExactly, I love their recommendations based on my likes, love The Upload section. I wonder what algorithms they use. They are pretty good.
- nikisweeting 7y agoTheir "The Upload" playlist is consistently the source of some of my favorite music on the internet, it almost never has a song I don't like. Whichever engineers worked on it deserve a raise.
- seppin 7y agoAlso https://hypem.com/popular https://hypem.com/popular is a fantastic interface (with a great mobile app too), it takes mostly from SC.
- nikisweeting 7y agoHypeMachine is a great platform, I've never gotten super into using it though, not sure why.
- vonseel 7y agoCall me basic, but Spotify's algorithms for discovery are pretty damn good.
- seppin 7y agoSoundcloud lets you focus on your favorite music by type, country, etc. https://soundcloud.com/charts/new?genre=deephouse&country=all-countries https://soundcloud.com/charts/new?genre=deephouse&country=al...
- vonseel 7y agoInteresting, though I don’t personally find that useful. I’d rather use a service that finds music I may like based on what I listen to - regardless of origin - than one where I am the curator and must actively search/browse for new artists. It’s refreshing to hear non-musicians actually use SoundCloud to listen to music, though.
