Spotify introduces a soundtrack widget for the web – what this means for you and for Soundcloud.

Dj Skyjacker Definitions on Spotify:


Today Spotify introduced an HTML 5 widget that allows anyone to embed a playlist, a track or an album into their website. Pressing the play button in the web widget triggers the playlist or a single song in the Spotify Desktop client.

This means that artists will be able to embed their albums and EPs into their webpages. Booking and management agencies websites will soon be soon showing off playlists with latest tracks by their artists & Djs.

The Night Vibes of Malmö: http://citysounds.fm/malmo

Malmö by Elisabeth GajSoundcloud is probably the best thing that happened to the online end of the electronic music scene since Myspace. The fact, that more and more musicians store their music on the cloud, also benefits the music blogosphere. Most of you guys hanging out on Hmwl.org must agree that the soundcloud player is the sweetest thing for listening and downloading tracks compared to the Music Repostory Services 1.0 such as zippyshare, speedyshare, zshare, etc.

(Personally, I don’t believe that Myspace will last to see 2011, unless they make some major useability changes. And that – NOW)

The next … Continue…

The future Of Music Blogosphere (or Soundcloud + WordPress = true)

S+W

House Music With Love #5 – Inner Journey (Mixed by Alex Esser) by House Music With Love

The wordpress.com blogers now enjoy the possibility to use a single line code to embed the wave-formed track-player with fully customizable colours right into a blog post. While self-hosted blogs like us can achieve the same result by installing a Soundcloud plugin similar to Smart YouTube, etc

Soundcloud session 001

SoundCloud

Hey folks!

I’ve been strolling ’round on Soundcloud searching for gems, as I intend to do about once a week or so. It’s actually hard to find good music there, much harder than on beatport, since skill-less home producers flood the site with awful music. I’ll do the hard work for you, finding the diamonds; they will all be added to soundcloud within the month. Some are known, some unknown, but they are all great. 

Anyways, I found three pieces for you, a deepy housy one, a french disco housy one and a techno one. Enjoy.
