If you’re looking for a new streaming music service, 2u.fm is packed with remixes, music that’s easy to discover and a stream that’s tailored to your interests. It’s a well-organised, good-looking streaming service that’s completely free.
As soon as you sign up, 2u.fm asks you to select some genres that you enjoy, follow some artists and — if you choose — invite some friends via Facebook. Your feed shows music the service thinks you’ll love, the Trending section shows songs that other users have most liked today, and you can follow friends, stations created by others, or just browse genres. Hover over song names, and artist names to see even more tags you can use to filter and organise your feed. You can read more of the service’s features here.
Behind the scenes, the layout and design supports mobile devices, so the web app works just as well on your iPad or Nexus 7 as it does in your browser. You can share any song you find on the service with friends (including its place in playlists and profiles), and if one of your friends is online and using 2u.fm, you can tune in to what they’re listening to in real time and rock out with them. The service has a few kinks to work out, but it’s completely free, ad-free and off to a great start.
