Hi! I'm Andres, the CEO and founder of humm. It's a pleasure to e-meet you all here. I've created two music startups, and in the course of building our previous venture we constantly heard a similar thing: while several streaming services are making an ever bigger push for premium customers, no-one's taking care of the music fans who can't afford or don't yet want to buy a premium subscription. Also, the sites that do focus on the free experience aren't specifically set up as music players. That's why we built humm. humm is a music streaming service that combines a catalogue of tens of millions of tracks, a kick-ass recommendation engine and a simple interface to create a free and seamless music experience. You can find pretty much any track you're looking for, create and import playlists, and do without those irksome ads that interrupt the flow. humm has a great onboarding process that helps suggest music tailored to your taste. When you search the name of an artist or song, the interface brings up the best-quality tracks, albums, videos and cover versions, any of which you can add to playlists with a simple drag and drop. Soon, we'll have a pin function that lets you add any music you come across online! We realise the product isn't 100% perfect yet, but we'd love to hear your feedback. I'm at your disposal for any questions.

@andressandaza How do you skip the ads without the user having premium?

HI @joshdance it´s a question of how you embed the content. We use third party APIs and it´s the way they work. For example Youtube omits pre-roll ads if the size of embed has a small size.

Yes, this is a growing catalogue. Right now we have more than 40m tracks compiled and you have the option to suggest a missing track or artist and we will add it for you. Regarding licensing, we are embedding content from third parties, we don´t host anything. We are committed to follow the rules of any APIs we may use.

It looks great so far, but, please, please, please, add email verification when creating accounts. This is super critical for web apps. It is incredible the amount of spam I get from services someone else created an account in with my email address and didn't do email verification. This annoys me big time: https://twitter.com/arapulido/st...

Time to thank the great team we have and the fantastic work they did. @mxaxg @tompayne42 @alfonso_fiz @nielsfootman, @ThomasWilczek and jorge fernandez, our CTO, who funny enough, doesn´t have twitter account, and even @josalonsogarcia who´s in the shadows working in the android mobile app. Guys I´m really proud of being working with you. More good things to come!

Hi @myyellowshoe. Thanks, happy you like it. I kind of answered that question in the previous post but the fact is that we´re building a powerful API that can be used by third parties to create innovative services or apps related to music; and subsequently in the use of Big Data.

@andressandaza @myyellowshoe Gotcha. Cool, yeah thats probably the best angle, seeing any money that could be made around the artists playing tracks would probably put you in sticky situations with many legal departments :)

How does humm compare to tomahawk/hatchet?

Hi @jannis. I´d say there are two main differentiators. 1- We are much simpler and easy to use and you don´t need to download any application, you can start playing music without even registering. 2- We offer a personalised experience, you tell us what you like and we offer you music curated from your taste from the word go. Cheers, a
