Here is what comes with the new update:

• Random play for selected items. While you’re in the “Library” tab, select a few tracks (or albums) and choose “Random Play” from the menu. The application will play tracks randomly from the list of the selected items.
• Another way to play tracks randomly from an album (or an artist) is to use a long-click and choose “Random Play”.
• If you think that the search toolbar is taking too much space, you will be able to hide it by choosing “Hide Search” from the menu while you’re in the “Library” tab.
• Other visual improvements

Keep up to date on all events scheduled in your area based on the artists in your library. For that check your dashboard once in a while and see a list of all relevant shows or concerts for which tickets are still available.

Discovering mainstream music is relatively easy. There’s plenty of sources out there (billboard charts, reviews etc). When it comes to indie (or non-mainstream) stuff, finding a decent album is quite a challenge. Of course there’re lots of blogs that write about indie music, but your choices are limited.

Moozone offers an alternative way to discover non-mainstream artists. It works kind of similar to Pandora Radio, but its main focus is on indie. Follow the link below, type in your favorite artist and you will get a list of tracks, that might be similar in its sounding to the music of that artist. You will be able to play 30 second samples and see if you like it or not.

Moozone Indie Music Discovery Tool

Let us know what you think.

For those who would like to be able search and play music by genres (or tags) we provide this tutorial.

First of all, once you upload music to Moozone, a few things happen:

• We read ID3 tags, pull out track genres. These genres get associated with the uploaded tracks.
• We try to match your tracks against our catalog (we have over 7 million tracks with proper genres and tags).
