I feel like this solves zero problem. People don't need more ways to discover music, let alone anything else for that matter. Musicians needs solutions. Fans could give a fart less. Make something useful.
@kingliv_ Thank you for your feedback. I agree that this post doesn't explain too well what we do. We're not just another way to discover music. With DarwinBeats you discover independent music, and the listeners are the ones curating the songs. The more a song gets voted up, the more it will be featured. The more it gets downvoted, the less it gets played. It's the natural selection of music, where music is curated organically.
The music you hear every day is mostly just mainstream music. It represents less than 1% of the real music scene. Most music goes unheard, even when it's just as good or even better than what's in the mainstream. So while all the other platforms concentrate on playing this music, we provide a venue for the other 99% to get recognized.
Artists get the benefit of being heard without having to manually promote their music (via social networks etc), and they get an opportunity to grow a fan-base (followers), and all they need to do to achieve that is make great music. No label, manager, or business skills required.
Hope this clarifies what we do a little better.
DarwinBeats is a platform to discover music exclusively from independent artists, and help these artists by voting for them. So far we've already signed up 3500 artists, so there's already a lot of content on the app :)
