New music discovery

This app is bar none the BEST most consistent way I find new good tunes that I love - for what feels like three decades straight. I was born in the 80s so grew up with burning CDs then sharing iPods and Napster playlists to find new music, that doesn’t happen anymore so I am super grateful to have Hype Machine to fill in the gaps where I used to discover music through my friends.

Everyone asks me where I get my music! Best kept secret! Been a supporter for 10+ years!

All my friends always ask me where I get my music from and if I have Spotify. I kindly say no because Hype Machine (for the past 10+years) has been my go to for all my music! I will always use it! It never disappoints! Literally the best music curators in the business! I can’t thank them enough for introducing me to tunes that come out as popular years later. They are ahead of the game, and you can find hits that no one else has! The app is 10/10. Gonna be listening to Hype Machine when I go to the gym later haha

Music Discovery

This is still a classic and must have website/app for those who love to discover unique and fresh music. I've been using Hype Machine since 2010.
