The first interview in a month that will see a fair share of them (some coming from unexpected angles… just you wait and see) finds me talking to the TuneCrank team.
TuneCrank is a startup I featured way back in November. It lets you discover new music and then share it with others. But there’s no need for you to listen to the story for me – the team responsible for it is going to tell you everything below…
Full Name: The TuneCrank Team
Age: Infant
Startup: TuneCrank
Position: VPs TuneFinding
PART I
THE STARTUP
Tell us a little about your startup. Where did the idea come from? Was it developed after any particular incident or negative experience either you or someone in your team had with the music industry?
We just love music. And upon finding something awesome we’re like “Man, where can I get some more of this?” Simple as that. Find great tunes and show them to the world. Then the world can take it from there.
What are its most distinctive features?
Clean. Open. User-friendly. Unlimited upload.
What was the original launch date?
No real launch date. Soft launch was in the latter half of 2010. Not sure we’ve actually launched yet. Haha.
What has been the response so far? Which countries are you focusing on the most?
The world. Seriously. Anywhere. Tuvalu.
What features can we expect to see implemented in future revisions?
We’re working on playlists or fav-lists for TuneLovers. Continue reading →
