Audiomack Upgrades its Tastemakers Program, Giving Music Curators Pro-Level Analytics
The global streaming service now provides professional analytics to genre pros around the world to help Audiomack listeners be among the first to discover the next big sound.
Audiomack, the global music streaming and discovery platform, has just announced advanced features for Audiomack for Tastemakers, the company’s global curatorial program, in the newest version of its iOS app. This update equips select music curators around the world, known as Tastemakers, with professional-grade analytics to track and optimize their playlist performance, reinforcing Audiomack’s commitment to highlighting new and emerging acts, no matter where they are.
The Audiomack for Tastemakers app provides curators, now on both iOS and on the previously-introduced Android app, with comprehensive performance metrics including Stream Impact, Save Impact, Finish Rate, Engagement Stats, 30-second Stream Rate, and seven-day performance snapshots, among other metrics. These tools enable Tastemakers to understand how their playlists resonate with listeners and refine their curation strategies in real time.
Audiomack's Tastemakers program recognizes that meaningful music discovery requires a human touch. The company's curators span the globe, from dance halls in Jamaica to underground scenes across Africa, and in communities worldwide, identifying emerging sounds that AI or algorithms might never surface.
"I started Audiomack because I'm a music fan and passionate about discovering music. As we’ve grown and helped break new artists around the world, we’ve found that a common trait of an Audiomack listener is that they, too, want to lean in and be a part of discovering the next big artist or sound," said David Ponte, Co-Founder and CMO of Audiomack. “By providing our listeners with carefully curated playlists from our Tastemakers, we ensure they always have their finger on the pulse of new music and emerging artists.”
Since launching the beta program in late 2024, Audiomack has accepted more than 350 new playlist Tastemakers. These curators receive a verified badge on the platform, and their playlists enjoy enhanced visibility on their Audiomack profiles, further increasing their impact.
Aspiring Tastemakers can apply to be accepted into the program by completing the steps found at the application link.
