Nice concept - unique take on gamified music discovery. Where's the catalogue from? My searches of the inventory don't turn up many results of exciting new bands who've dropped last few months.

Hey Derek, Great that you liked it. Artists upload tracks directly! We're concentrating on the UK Market right now, so you'll find a majority of emerging and unsigned artists there. Artists are uploading new tracks everyday, so expect a lot of moves on the Tradiio charts on the following weeks! @dshan
Erik Torenberg
congrats on the launch! i like the rewards concept, is this really that unique from all the other tons of music discovery apps out there? @aten says this is the most solved problem on the internet cc @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank

@aten @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank @eriktorenberg I'm interested to hear which 'problem' that is. I've always perceived music (and listening to the right music at the right time in a way that's fun for both listeners and the ones creating & curating it) as a vitamin. While that may look like it's a bad thing, I believe music is one of the only types of media that hasn't had a real universal place yet. @mikegameiro, I like your take on it! Some first impressions-feedback: - where does the music come from? is it licensed? Is it embedded? - what happens when I invest? It's not clear to me as a first-time user, and seems like its your key differentiation so I would try and explain that early on in the onboarding process. Maybe I'll drop some more feedback later, but that's it for now :) I've added this to http://www.producthunt.com/julia... - good luck!

Hey Erik, thanks for reaching out! Tradiio is not just about music discovery and streaming new songs. It's about helping new talent emerge, influencing artists' careers and giving them opportunities within the Music Industry. Today people have two ways of discovering new talent: curators/specialists and algorithms. Tradiio provides a third option. By using the investment dynamic, people can collectively curate. With this we create the perfect A&R, the perfect music scout. In the UK market, music brands and partners are already joining the movement, offering rewards for both artists and users. I can give you guys more details about our plans and philosophy if you like. Thanks! :) @aten @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank @eriktorenberg

Julian, Wow Julian, so nice to hear that. And I like your take on the fact that music doesn’t have a universal place. With Tradiio we want to connect artists and fans and also link them with key partners who can give opportunities in the music industry. I can give you more details about we plan to do this. About your questions: - Artists upload their songs directly to Tradiio. In order to get this done right, we’re starting on the UK market. We want to have a unique catalogue of new artists. One like no other platform. - When you invest in a song, the value rises. If people sell the song, the value falls. Pretty much like the stock market, but with more values in the algorithm, such as number of plays and some other internal and external factors. Thanks for adding it to your list. I’ll be happy to answer any more questions you might have! @aten @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank @eriktorenberg @juliangijsen

@aten @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank @eriktorenberg @mikegameiro thanks for clarifying Miguel! Still not entirely sure though what it means to "invest / sell music stock on your platform" - my warning here would be that using hard to understand terms & features blocks your access to a large market (something we too have high on our agenda at @kollektfm - it's hard!)
Miguel Leite
Yes, Julian, I totally understand your point. We don't use the concept stock market, but we're keeping the "invest" word. We believe the word invest has a double meaning and if we communicate well, people will feel that they are investing time and belief in a new artist, not only our virtual coins! Thanks for the input! And loved @kollektfm design, btw! @aten @jonvanhala @zisk @daualset @valenti @ethank @eriktorenberg @kollektfm @juliangijsen

Tradiio is available in Portugal for a couple of months but today it looks like they launched to the world. I can say that for a long time I'm pretty hooked on this music discovery app. Having fun investing and being a talent scout. Now it's your turn. Hope you enjoy it.

1) How do I earn coins? 2) I can't read the grey text. (am i getting old?!?) 3) How does this not become "gamable". Every digital reward system I've ever seen gets eventually gamed and the model breaks down.
Miguel Leite
@mbesto hey Mike! 1) You get a specific amount of coins when you register. You can win more coins by completing missions, challenges and by inviting new users to the platform. 2) Can you specify please? 3) The platform was live for 6 months in Portugal, so we've been covering and bettering all the anti-cheat features to prevent Tradiio to be gamed. On the artists side, our algorithm doesn't count only with investments and plays, it also takes in accounts more internal and external factors. On the rewards side for users, there are some items that can be bought only by users that have accomplished particular challenges or level number. This assures new and more established players both have a chance to win. We also track all user activity for suspect behavior. Hope this helped :) Cheers!

Glad to see Tradiio on PH :) Only have some doubts about the homepage, since I believe it doesn't says much to the user of the website features. Nevertheless, it looks good.
Miguel Leite
@johntheoak hey João! :) Yes, we've been very active on A/B an decided to go with a more minimalist version. But we're testing new approaches with the new traffic, etc. And thanks, we really appreciate your feedback!
David Quiñones
I love the idea! This is actually a problem to solve. I'm a pro user in Spotify and I like to take a look to the "New releases" section to discover new artists. I thought that this process is kind of broken so it definitely gets my upvote!
Miguel Leite
@dalequi Hi David, I'm Miguel, CMO of Tradiio. That's so nice to hear! We're pretty excited with our launch and every feedback is important to us. Please let me know if you want to know more about Tradiio! Cheers!

I'm more into the Pandora thing to fit a mood, but it's still a rad A&R play. I like the gameified onboardibg process, but see these issues/bugs: 1) First challenge of 5 mins audio played doesn't get detected for me. 2) Most screens are a bit busy. Test % of users engaging with each feature and simplify for now. Would look to Snapchat for design cues. 3) FB login borked/hard to find for me after starting with Twitter. 4) App is very slow to load stuff. Rock on!

On Tradiio users scout for new music talent and help artists’ careers by virtually invest in them. We just launched officially on the UK market with rewards for both artists and users. We’re giving 1000 extra coins to all the Product Hunt Community! Please follow this link: http://tradi.io/welcome-hunters . We're waiting for your feedback :)
