Last.fm

Last.fm is a global online music service that tracks people’s music listening habits - across many devices/platforms and via its world-class personalized music service – to help them discover and share new music through recommendations, exploration and the integration of social networking tools. We take messy, crowd-sourced data from music listeners worldwide, and process it to provide global and personal music taste statistics, an “IMDB” style knowledge-base of all music, and recommendations unique to each user. We are a social network that continues to enjoy a large, passionate, active user base with hundreds of millions of users, and we are active on many platforms, with web, desktop and mobile applications. We process billions of data points per month, bringing together third-party applications and services with integrations in Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, VLC, Sonos, and many others. Our vision is to be the connective tissue of music on the internet. We strive to unlock information about your personal relationship to the music you love, and the relationships between music and the rest of the world. Key features of the service: * Your Music Listening History Track all your music listening almost anywhere via a process we invented called "Scrobbling"​ * Personalized Music & Event Recommendations The more users scrobble, the more data we have to help them discover new bands and gigs, based on what they listen to, what their friends, listen to and what’s emerging in hundreds of different genres, globally. * A global encyclopedia of music. Each artist has an individual wiki-based page that collects biographical data, discographies, track details, photographs, aggregated listening stats, similar artist data, user-generated tags and other information. * Social Features Share new favorite bands and weekly listening history to social networks like Facebook and Twitter. Active community for music fans to discuss their discoveries
