The New iSound
iSound has been undergoing some major changes behind the scenes and we're set to launch a completely new version of the site early this summer.
New Site Mantra - Simple, intelligent music discovery
How the site will work
1. You enter a band/artist you already love to listen to.
2. We will immediately start playing some great independent artists that match your tastes.
3. When you click the "Like" button on different songs those artists will get more exposure and we'll also tune iSound to your listening tastes.
Why change the current site?
Music on the current iSound site is not easy to browse and discover.
The main focus of any independent music site should be to help musicians connect with as many new and passionate fans as possible; and in turn, help those fans discover great new music.
The easiest way to discover new music is to provide recommendations based on what fans currently listen to and we have been building the new site with that in mind.
We will be removing site functionality that doesn't focus on the primary goal of connecting fans with new music.
Beta testing will open soon and we always welcome any feedback!
Some early screen shots of the new iSound are below:
