As the name suggests, this iOS app makes discovering new music so easy that you’d be forced to think about how pathetic the country’s GPRS connection is (well for my current provider I’m on).
With more than 15 million songs and 3 million artists in the world of music how do you find the music you like? We built Discovr Music to make it easy to find and explore new music. Enter an artist you like and you’ll discover artists you love.
* Discover new bands and artists
* Listen to their songs (preview samples)
* Watch their band videos
* Read their artist biographies
* Read their tweets / mentions about them
* Read reviews and blogs about their music.
* Save your favorite bands to your favorites.
* Buy their music direct from the app
* Share with your friends via Twitter or Facebook“Beautiful and dynamic, ideally suited to tactile interaction on the spacious iPad screen.”
- Courtney Banks (Wall Street Journal)“Fascinating interactive maps of music”
- Charlie White (Mashable)“Discovr elegantly delivers the world of music to iPad”
- Eliot Van Buskirk (Wired Magazine)Discovr lets you see how the music you love is connected, and makes it easy to find great new bands and artists that are similar to what you like.
To get started simply type in the name of a band or artist that you love and we’ll show you some similar music to check out. Bands or artists that are similar are connected. Just click on one you like and the music map will grow to show other similar artists. You can double click on a band or artist to see more info about them.
The app uses data visualization and music recommendations to provide an interactive map of the entire world of music. You can navigate through the musical ecosystem and discover new music based on what you like. The app is built from the ground up to make the most of iOS5 and is also backward compatible to previous iOS versions.
Discovr is brought to you by Filter Squad. We’re a little startup from Australia. We also make Discovr Apps to help you find new apps. Discovr Music is powered by The Echo Nest.
