I just started a Soundcloud page for my new band Soundcloud and wanted to know if anyone else has one? Or if anyone is using it?

Its somewhat new. I think its really for musicians to collaborate and share their music. I'm still figuring it out.

[Syeed]

I have one. http://soundcloud.com/syeed

I don't use it very often.

SoundCloud is a new online audio platform that lets music professionals receive, send & distribute their music. Primarily SoundCloud provides a efficient and simple way for music professionals to exchange music they are working on in private settings allowing for easy collaboration and communication prior to a public release. With SoundCloud the music professionals can easily send & receive large amounts of tracks without cluttering their email inbox, having to make use of generic file sending services or manage their own server. For people who deal with music on a regular basis SoundCloud increases efficiency and improves their work flow by allowing them to focus on the music and not think about the actual files.

so this is for making music and sharing it with other players, not releasing it to the public?

but if i only wanted to share it with you, could i do it like that? like if you and i were collaborating on something and didn't have the ability to get together, but didn't necessarily want everyone else in the world chipping in, can i determine who can see it?

i'm also too lazy to go there.

Yes, you can set the tracks to private and only the selected people you want to see them will.

my understanding is that it's just another way of streaming music on the internets. one cool aspect about it is that the waveform of each track is displayed and users can make comments about songs in specific parts. (i.e. "holy shit this drum solo just keeps going...")

My band has our EP streaming here too...

[Syeed]

I plan to use it for things that I don't want to post on Bandcamp, but I wouldn't do an entire album. Just a song or a work in progress or something.

[apstrougo]

I signed up a month or so ago but haven't gotten into it... Don't really need it for my band yet, and still waiting to get a few projects off the ground.

I know what they're marketing it for... but is anyone actually using it for anything like that?
