Sound Shelter
Discovering new music is supposed to be enjoyable, not a chore. But when hundred of new songs are released each day, it’s almost impossible to keep your finger on the pulse and it's easy to become disilluionsed when faced with track after track of mediocracy.
So… we’ve given up trying to find the gem in a thousand on digital stores and are taking things back to our roots. From now on, we’re going to trust the recommendations of carefully selected record shop workers and fellow music lovers.
Our “Sound Tracker” technology collates recommendations from the world’s finest record stores to give you the best new releases across all genres. We update our data every half an hour using some pretty nifty web technology, so you will always be on top of the best new releases.
We take recommendations from stores in music hot spots such as London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Glasgow and Manchester. We feel these stores have the combined expertise of a variety of genres to ensure that only the best music recommendations come through.
With each release we feature, users can play MP3 samples of each track and view the artwork that comes with it. Through our partnership with the legendary Juno Records, each release has a link through to the Juno site where you can purchase the release.
