As a musician I am grateful to SoundCloud for what they do for us and for me personally. This is great project. I think that all musicians community should support SoundCLoud with their reviews!

IT IS A DJ'S JOB TO REMIX RECORDS AND DO NEW VERSIONS OF CLASSIC MUSIC THIS IS THE JOB OF A DJ. SOUNDCLOUD IS IN CAHOOTS WITH LABELS AND IS BLOCKING THE DJS FROM REMIXING MUSIC MY MICHAEL JACKSON REMIXED HAD 1000 LISTENS PLUS AND SOUNDCLOUD BLOCKED IT AFTER IT REACHED 10,0000 STATUS MICHAEL WOULD HAVE LOVED THE REMIX!
IT IS A GOOD SITE BUT THEY NEED TO STOP BLOCKING THE DJS FROM BEING CREATIVE. WHY WOULD A DJ GET A PRO ACCOUNT THERE AND THEY BLOCK THE DJS THAT IS THE MAIN REASON I WILL NOT GO PRO - THIS SHOULD STOP GET OUT THE WAY STOP ALLOWING LABELS WARNER BROTHERS SPECIFICALLY & allow DJS TO DO THEIR THING OR DO A WORKAROUND.

Feeling Scammed
August 12, 2016

I've always been an avid soundcloud fan and never had any problems. However, I decided to try the free trial of Go and am very disappointed. I didn't really feel it was worth the money, so I went to cancel my subscription before the 30 days were over. However, when I went to the manage subscriptions page, there was NO way to edit my account to disable go. I looked for so long for a way to contact soundcloud, however there was only an international phone number and FAQs. I took me two days just to hunt down the customer service email. After emailing, I was responded to with automatic reply telling me to refer back to the FAQ page. Great. Then, when finally contacting a human being, I was told I was not going to be refunded for ONE day over of soundcloud Go even though I had been trying to cancel since before the deadline. Definitely not using soundcloud anymore. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

Soundcloud used to be the best. I really do mean that, i loved the app, i loved the web site. Even for how much i love it, there is no way in hell anyone i know (including myself) is gonna pay $10-12 for it. I know it sucks but its gonna force me to delete my account soon and switch to something a little more professional if i have to pay (like apple music or spotify) sorry sound cloud but you just lost a lot of happy customers and all around made an awful choice

A tip if anyone from sound cloud ever saw this, make it $2 a month or something reasonable... dont be a sell out

Don't like the Mobile Version - Cannot get to my "Following" list.

Also, Soundclouds allows for too much junk posted by random djs (as posted by the main dj we were following).

Messy.

Sound cloud go
March 29, 2016

This update is terrible. I shouldn't have to pay that much money to listen to songs?! New songs should be free to everyone! This is ridiculous and now I hate this app.

I miss the original version where it showed when the track was released.

They should listen to customer feedback. It would make their app. Be as great as it was originally.

Soundcloud should be one of your first destinations to post your music. Great community and a very popular site.

Not for artists anymore
December 11, 2015

Soundcloud is not for new artists anymore. It's only for established acts. They removed the 'groups' feature, which was the only way you could self-promote inside the site and for people to discover you. Now only crickets will hear your music. Save your efforts for views for your youtube channel, soundcloud is just not worth it anymore.

I love their mobile app, very easy to work with. However, this service is for amateur and beginner artists (as already mentioned), there are no popular artists out there. A good chance for those who want to share their work, but not a good place to look for top-quality bands.

Not a Spotify or Pandora
October 15, 2015

So this is nice if you want to record your own music and get out to the people. I listen to original music by some of my fave local bands on here. But that's it. All my other music listening is on Spotify. Big name bands do not have their music on SoundCloud.

Im a cheap bytch so i just use the free accounts. They give you somethin like 2 hours of recording time. That part sux but in the end, i made it work for me. I use the 2 hours free accounts as individual albums. So every time i create a new album, i create a new soundcloud n provide linx to it from the others. I dont get wild new listeners unless i promote the shyt out of my musick. This could be due to the nature/content of it though. Its dark, twisted, crazy punk/grunge hybrids. Definitely not for everyone. But all in all, its super easy to use, super easy to navigate, and in the couple years ive been using them, i cant say i have even one legit complaint. Sure it could be better, but i aint found anything better as of yet. Highly recommended all in all. Have a good one. Good luck to you. Cheers. <3 natalie cleotatra kobrapuke of TOXIC DELIRIUM.

I am overall very pleased with the service, and encouraged by the traffic I get.
There are times when I experience glitches, such as tracks not loading properly, or edited tracks not editing properly. Other than that I am really happy with it. Anyone can post their music and it's a great way to hear new and interesting music out there. A little like Pandora, but without commercials, and not necessarily music that is published or under a record label.
