WHAT'S NEW WITH SOUNDCLOUD - September 2024

By Rohit Agarwal, Chief Product Officer

It's September and as we embrace the change of seasons and the return to busy schedules, we're excited to announce new features that keep you connected to your favorite artists and tracks. Whether you’re settling into a new routine, discovering fresh sounds, or just returning to normal, read on to discover what’s new this month.

Never Miss a Release From Your Favorite Artists

Good news: we’ve launched our new release notifications to better connect artists and fans, making sure the latest releases are never missed. Fans will instantly be notified when an artist they follow drops a track or album, prioritizing notifications from artists they engage with the most.  

Simply follow your faves, tap the bell icon, and choose either “All New Releases” or “Personalized.”

As we constantly explore ways to directly connect artists with fans, new release notifications bring artists closer to their listeners, fostering an even stronger community on SoundCloud.

Tailor Your Music Experience to Any Mood

If you’re on SoundCloud, you’ve probably been collecting “liked” songs in your library for years, with thousands upon thousands of tracks in your collection. No one has taste like yours, but that endless list of liked tracks can be overwhelming and difficult to organize and navigate. Especially when you’re craving a specific sound.

That’s why we’ve introduced Mood and Genre Filters for Go and Go+ subscribers. Just pick your mood or genre from the 64 available options at the top of your liked songs library, and your entire collection will be sorted by AI, serving you up a perfect playlist to match it. From “Exciting” to “Angry” to “Majestic”, Hip Hop to Indie to Industrial, our filters can set the tone for every scenario. 

For artists: with Mood and Genre Filters, we can help enhance your experience as a creator—whether you’re crate-digging, brainstorming, or searching for inspiration.

New Drop: The Green Room Hoodie

It might be getting chilly, but we’re keeping it cozy with a new hoodie to the Essentials Collection. Whether you’re locking in at school, getting ready for a performance or simply moving through life, this relaxed-fit hoodie has you covered—backstage, onstage, in the office, or working from home. 

Grab yours before it’s gone, and don’t forget to browse the rest of our SoundCloud store for more.
