Free audio streaming app

Mixcloud is a free audio streaming application developed by Mixcloud Limited for mobile devices. It allows you to explore millions of audio content such as radio shows, DJ mixes, and podcasts produced by passionate creators across the world. Aside from streaming, there are also other features that you can enjoy. You can also follow your favorite creators, DJs, and radio stations; keep track of streaming history; queue up contents you want to hear later; and sync across your available devices. Note, however, that aspiring audio content creators need to get Mixcloud Pro to access to the tools and monetize your audience.

Mixcloud vs. Soundcloud

One of the strong competitors in the audio streaming market is Soundcloud. If Mixcloud has a fast-growing user number nowadays, Soundcloud already accumulated the largest community of audio creators and streamers, as they’ve been in the league for the longest time. Choosing the best app to utilize between these two will heavily depend on the goal you want to achieve or the type of audio content you’ll upload.

Mixcloud is the best option if your contents are mixtapes, remixes, bootlegs, mashups, and re-edits. Soundcloud has an automated anti-piracy filter, which often removes audio that violated copyright infringement. Uploading more than two hours of audio content in Soundcloud is not free. Hence, Mixcloud is a better tool to get. Moreover, if you are a producer here, you could get some amount of royalties for the mix that you created. 

However, if you’re aiming to be exposed to a bigger audience then, Soundcloud would best suit you. As mentioned, it contains the largest content creator and listener community in the industry. Realistically speaking, you could gain more potential listeners of your content here. From the listeners’ perspective, on the other hand, files can be easily downloaded in Soundclound as compared to the aforementioned audio streaming app.     

Growing steadily

It is no doubt that Mixcloud is stepping up their game and steadily making its own name in the audio streaming industry. For a completely free service, you’ll be able to do a lot of things and experience almost all of its features offered either as a listener or creator, which makes it a better option to Soundcloud. Although the latter still has the largest community, this platform is growing incredibly fast, especially among the DJs.
