Soundsgood Offers Playlists Made by Real People Under Your Influence
It is difficult to find music that is not algorithmically recommended but is offered by real music lovers: DJs, producers, or just fans like you. Soundsgood is a new service that wants to be just that, with playlists that are platform agnostic so you can listen to them on YouTube, Soundcloud, Spotify, anywhere.
Music services have been a dime a dozen lately, but Soundsgood is trying to keep the human element in play, rather than just offering your music recommendations to a computer that may or may not know what you like or help you find something. something new to listen to. The service is still new at the moment, but its playlists are created by human curators, with seven (or more) new music playlists appearing every week. These playlists often have themes, for example one is Afro-electronic, another is deep house and downtemp, others are mostly rock and pop rock, and still others are hip-hop and R&B. These curated people are musicians, DJs and fans in their own right, and they can see what their listeners like and what they don’t like so they can customize their playlists and recommendations according to them.
The first page, whether you sign up for an account or not, is a wonderland of new songs worth trying out. You can explore different curators to see if your tastes match their tastes (and then follow them to get their playlists as they launch), or just listen to whatever you want, be it the latest playlists or popular songs in certain genres. Just keep scrolling down for more great deals. If you want, you can even become a curator and create your own playlists for others to listen to.
Soundsgood is also platform independent, so you can plug in any music service you prefer. If you are a Spotify fan, you can connect your Spotify account to receive songs from these playlists in this app. Listeners to YouTube or Soundcloud have an edge (since this is where a lot of the tracks come from), but the service also supports Deezer, Xbox Music, Beats Music, and a few others.
