Artist and label news

This is a brand new section devoted strictly to updates for artists and labels.

I’m sure many have wondered why we chose to relaunch the brand and app with a few key features (uploads, credits purchases, analytics, etc).

The answer is fairly straightforward — we had to make a break with the past and replace some code that was in danger of causing many long-term problems.

The first version of Resonate (which should have been called “alpha”) was developed mainly by one volunteer. While it gave us our first proof of concept, demonstrating that #stream2own was real and worked, the code base created could not scale to hundreds of thousands of members. We’re pretty close to crossing the 10,000 mark and really, that’s just the beginning.

So, the current dev team decided it was time to make a clean break and relaunch, even if that meant not having all of the features we consider part of a normal, functioning service. That said, we expect to roll out a lot of things quickly, so check back to this section often. We hope to surprise you!

Kind regards,
Peter and the team
