There's so much amazing original music on eSnips that creating an eSnips music that would stream it in channels was too natural. eSnips Radio, in it's initial verion will be live soon. It's a multi-channel radio that streams non stop original music uploaded to eSnips by musicians from around the world. The channels now based on music genres. In the future, we plan on enabling you to create your own channels: This is how the eSnips Radio looks:
I’ve been waiting for this feature for quite a while as I am a big listener to music on eSnips. So here’s how it works: Every music file now has a button next to it that reads ‘Add to playlist’, if you click on it, it will add the file to your the playlist which will appear at the top of the page. You can play selected songs from a folder, or the entire folder in one click. It’s not limited to just one folder, you can add to your play-list any music you discover anywhere on eSnips.
Note that currently, the play-list is not saved beyond your specific visit to eSnips. So when you close the playlist, or leave eSnips, it will not be saved. In upcoming versions (soon) we will add the ability to save and share play-lists. Also coming up soon.... Playlist Widgets! YES, YOUR HEARD IT RIGHT :)
This is a screen shot of the playlist I created in one click, right from my eSnips favorites. What do you all think? Any comments, thoughts, suggestions?
Since the DJ Micro-portal went live a couple of months ago, the number of DJs that joined the community grew from a few tens to two thousand. Great viral growth for just one micro-portal. The DJs have some great stuff going and a lot of diversity. We are already receiving requests to split to the DJ community into small genre specific Micro-portals; hip-hop and club.
This very cool community has greatly inspired our new generation of widgets. These new widgets, featuring DJSnippy ‘mov`n 2 the beat’, are not just links to the music file, the are actual players that will play the entire mix from any web site. Next version will also include entire play lists.
Other music styles have their own widgets of course.
Here’s a sample of the new widgets with sets by some of the coolest DJs on eSnips.
