Music used to be social. Then, the streamers took over. But this app brings your friends together to make music social again.

Writing about the decline of Pitchfork made me sad about the music industry — and also about the state of music discovery. Besides the fact that TikTok doesn’t prioritize music as anything other than background noise, it means that artists have to win the viral lottery in order to make a hit. And that’s entirely out of their control.

The effect is getting trapped in a bubble all by yourself. 'It’s been a joy to hear the stories behind the picks' It’s been cathartic to burst that bubble, and not just because I’m learning about music I wouldn’t have encountered otherwise. The app works like this: people sign up from their Spotify accounts, joining a public or private league. The league has rounds, and each round generates a playlist.
