Welcome to SpotDJ!
Welcome to SpotDJ! We’re so excited you have come to see what we’ve been working on for the last few months. Thanks for taking the time to explore what we’ve accomplished so far, and we look forward to hearing your feedback. We’re announcing some great features today and have even more coming soon!
So what is SpotDJ? SpotDJ an add-on for media players that enables you to do more with your music – learn about the songs you’re listening to, share your expertise with others, hear directly from artists about upcoming shows and album releases, get recommendations on other bands you should check out, and more to come.
Why would I use SpotDJ? We don’t believe learning about music should be a separate process from listening to it. Our goal is to bring the information you seek elsewhere – on fan sites, podcasts, blogs, MySpace, artist pages, magazines, TV shows – into the listening experience.
How does SpotDJ work? While you listen to music, we search our database for audio spots relevant to the song you’re listening to. When we find a match, we insert that relevant audio commentary into your listening experience.
For example, while listening to the Beastie Boys, between songs we insert an interesting tidbit from user Bosco about the great song “You Gotta Fight For Your Right To Party” and you discover that the song was originally intended as a parody. While the audio spot plays, you can rate Bosco’s spot, leave a comment, and click on Bosco to learn more about other spots he has recorded.
We’ve put more information on how the service works on the SpotDJ website and have more information posted on the FAQ as well.
Like to talk about music? Our service was built with you in mind. If you don’t want the hassle of maintaining a website, creating a whole podcast, or running your own internet radio show, we make it easy for you to share your insights with the world at the click of a button – simply hit the record button while you’re listening to music, say the interesting tidbit on your mind, and upload your audio spot to our server. Next time anyone else listens to your song, they can hear your commentary – it’s that simple!
Download and install SpotDJ, record a few spots about your favorite tunes, and let us know what you think. We look forward to hearing from you!
