Gagnez 2 places pour assister au set de Bob Sinclar au Queen

En 2008 et après la trilogie à succès « Western Dream », « Soundz Of Freedom » et « Born in 69 » - Bob Sinclar décide de quitter la routine parisienne et part à Los Angeles, puis en Jamaïque pour réenregistrer tous ses singles avec Sly & Robby en versions dub. Cette parenthèse « Made in Jamaïca » passée et de retour dans son studio parisien de Yellow Productions, Bob SINCLAR est en grande forme et sort plusieurs singles consécutivement. L’hiver dernier, Bercy découvrait son duo surprise avec Sean Paul « Tik Tok », tandis que cet été, toutes les pistes de dance ont swingé italo disco sur son « Far l’Amore » en duo avec Raffaela Carrà. Entre ces deux singles, il y a eu des Djs sets dans le monde entier, l’ouverture de l’Amnésia nouvelle formule à Miami (Bob en assure la direction artistique), et surtout, surtout, des heures enfermées en studio à concocter autour de ces deux singles fers de lance, le véritable nouvel album, enfin annoncé pour le 30 Janvier. Après une récréation festive avec Colonel Reyel (single qu’on retrouve dans sa version anglaise sur ce nouvel opus), Bob invite Pitbull et présente « Rock the Boat » , extrait annonciateur d’un album 100 % club. Un vrai retour aux sources, à la source même : le disco – du nom de l’album « Disco Crash’ » - n’est pas loin, même si c’est une version new millenium que Bob Sinclar propose tout au long de son album. Parmi les invités, on retrouve Sean Paul, Snoop Dogg, Pitbull, Fatman Scoop et la ravissante Sophie Ellis Bextor, pour un morceau sexy en diable qui sera certainement un des tubes de l’été prochain. Bob Sinclar is back (in the House). A cette occasion Spotify vous offre 2 places pour assister au set DJ de Bob Sinclar au Queen le 03 février prochain. Pour tenter votre chance, envoyez un mail à concours@spotify.com. Bonne chance à tous !

HTML5 Widget – Ready For Prime Time

Almost 3 months ago we announced our new HTML5 widget player. Since then we have spent a lot of time gathering your feedback, testing, bug fixing, talking to the browser vendors and improving the user interface. We were glad to hear about your experiences using the widget, we have seen an incredible uptake in sharing of the sounds played in the new widgets. With the mobile browser support we were finally able to fullfil one the main feature requests.

From the very beginning of this project we were convinced that we should bring as much of the SoundCloud experience to our widgets as possible, features that go beyond just listening to the sounds.

Today we are adding two major new features to our HTML5 widgets – Comments and Likes. This means that from now on you’re able to comment on sounds embedded anywhere on the web and you can save them as a favorite on SoundCloud too.

Also, we are proud to announce that today we are officially switching our default widget to be the HTML5 widget. We also know that our major partners plan to support it in the near future. Of course the old Flash widget will be still available if you need it as an alternative option.

SoundCloud Voices

SoundCloud Voices is a  weekly Community feature focusing on new spoken word creators found on SoundCloud.  It might be a podcast, radio show, audio book, interview, audio messages, a poem, anything!  Keep an eye out every Thursday for a new post. 

Time for another SoundCloud Voices people, and this week we are back on the comedy podcasts, featuring possibly one of the best comedy podcasts out there!  It’s The Bugle!  Having recently moved from The Times newspaper, we are happy to announce that The Bugle will live on, on SoundCloud!  Featuring comedians Andy Zaltzman and John Oliver the transatlantic region’s leading bi-continental satirical double-act, leave no hot potato unbuttered in their worldwide-hit weekly topical comedy show.  The show which tackles the latest craziness in current affairs regularly gets over 2 million downloads a month and is well worth a listen.  Check out their new shiny site TheBuglePodcast.com where they are looking for donations to help support the ongoing production of the show #savethebugle, and like them on Facebook too.  Take a listen below to the latest show.

Next up is a podcast, from The British Comedy Guide, that is really is quite bizarre, called Me1 vs Me2 with the prolific podcaster Richard Herring.  To summarise the show, its basically Richard playing himself at snooker and commentating on it!  In the face of some harsh iTunes reviews Richard has even gone so far as to threaten that he will continue doing the podcast until he gets zero listens!  I now challenge you to not listen!  Here’s the lastest episode below, and make sure to check out some of the other shows from the British Comedy Guide!

And finally, there is Pappy’s Bangers and Mash.  Where the format is hosts Ben, Matthew and Tom have a chat at the start of the day, then they go away and write some sketches and then come back and incorporate them into the podcast.  It basically entails some silly chat and banter.  Well worth a listen!

If you are interested in trying out SoundCloud as a spoken word podcast platform, you can sign up for via this form. Successful candidates will be emailed with further details.

Found Sounds | It’s the sound of the underground

Found Sounds is a SoundCloud community feature focusing on some of the most weird and wonderful sounds that can be found on SoundCloud. Count on new installments with some of our favorite sounds each Tuesday!

No, no. This weeks Found Sounds isn’t all about Girls Aloud’s phenomenal number one hit Sound of the Underground, it’s about the different subway sounds in cities around the world.

First off, our home town Berlin. Berlin has a unique underground system consisting of both the U-Bahn and the S-Bahn. These sounds are iconic to Berlin, musician Paul Kalkbrenner even created a song for the film Berlin Calling using these sounds.

Can you hear the difference?

The oldest underground system in the world is London’s, opened in 1863, that’s pretty impressive! Things have changed a bit since then, but the sound of London’s underground is still very recognizable. With cockney train conductors and the infamous automated lady station announcer, shut your eyes and imagine you’re arriving into the heart of London at Waterloo Station.

Not to be forgotten is the city with the most underground stations and the longest amount of track, that is, the New York City Subway! Next stop, Union Square.

That’s all for this week’s Found Sounds! Tune in next week for more crazy sounds from the ‘Cloud.

Spotify Platform and the ‘Viva’ client

Over the past few weeks we’ve seen a number of great uses of the Spotify Platform that have enabled wonderful new musical experiences. In-client experiences such as Songkick’s integration and Last.fm’s discovery engine. Third party mobile apps like SpotOn and Soundrop. And now we have another great project to let you know about. One of our Mac OS X engineers has released a libspotify-based desktop client for OS X Lion, Viva, that he’s built to test libspotify and CocoaLibSpotify and as an interesting ‘side project’. While this isn’t an official Spotify client it is another example of just how powerful and easy it is to build upon the Spotify Platform. If you’re running OS X Lion feel free to check it out, it’s a little rough around the edges but still great to use. If you’re a developer and want to learn how to build something yourself using the Spotify Platform check out our developer site now.

Thank You – 10 Million Times

When we started SoundCloud a few years ago, we had the vision of enabling people to create and share sound more easily and collaboratively.

Today, we’re more than thrilled to extend ten million Thank You’s to our 10 million registered SoundClouders.

Ten million is not just a number to us, it is proof that we’re not alone on our mission to unmute the web and it gives us goosebumps to know that more than ten million people from around the world have been finding value in SoundCloud in many different ways. As of today:

  • Sound is mobile: Over 5 million official SoundCloud apps have been downloaded
  • Sound is developing: Over 10,000 apps being developed on SoundCloud’s open platform. Recent additions include integrations with professional music creation software Pro Tools and Cakewalk.
  • Sound is more than music: Over 3.3 million different tags show the breadth of sounds on SoundCloud, which now includes everything from journalists & bloggers (Robert Scoble, Mike Butcher), to publishing (Penguin Books UK), to education (Stanford).

Please join us to celebrate this huge milestone with us by listening to a ‘Story Wheel’, in which our co-founders Alex & Eric reflect on SoundCloud’s journey so far. Simply click the image below to access the Story Wheel.

Oh, and if you’d like to create your own Story Wheel to tell a story behind your Instagram photos, it all starts here.

Thanks, all. You rock.
