While it is true that the reign of music streaming right now is dominated by Spotify (with Apple, Pandora, Tidal and others in the race to snatch the top spot), there is a service that has a target something different but whose popularity does not stop growing: SoundCloud.
More streaming
SoundCloud is a service of streaming music Widely used by DJs and independent music producers, it has become a platform widely used by those who want to discover new music. In addition, the absence of advertising in the service and its proper functioning must be taken into account, points that speak very well of the work behind this company.
Perhaps the most negative point is the absence of an official client for Mac. To solve this problem we have alternatives of third parties, among which is included Soundmate. It is possibly the most complete SoundCloud client of all that there is, offering us a layer superior to the web browser itself - iTunes style - with which we can navigate through SoundCloud while controlling the playback of the songs at all times.
The app has a very careful design and operation is correct at all times, allowing uninterrupted playback as long as your connection and SoundCloud servers allow it. And while it is true that we can do everything the app does from the browser, it is interesting to isolate it in an effective way and, above all, the playback controls on the keyboard are appreciated.
