Mixcloud invites for Hacker News

6 points by nicoperez 17y ago ↗ HN

We've just launched our private beta at http://www.mixcloud.com and we're looking for beta testers. If you'd like to try it out, please sign up with invite code: hackernewscloud

The idea behind Mixcloud is to connect independent radio content to listeners - a "YouTube of radio". We'd be very grateful for any constructive criticism via the feedback tab or simply feedback AT mixcloud DOT com.

You might recognise a couple YC-ers on the site (we're good friends with the guys from Songkick, Fuzzwich, Webmynd, Muxtape, Heyzap...)

On a related note, we were one of many young companies who didn't make it onto YC last year, so we'd like to take this chance to encourage everyone to keep building - whether or not you get on the program.

All the best,

Nico and Nikhil

It'd be a lot more interesting to me if I could browse at least the station list without signing up - as it is, I'm very likely to look at your page and then say "huh, that might be cool" and drift back to iTunes before I bother (realizing that you may not want this to change until your private beta period or whatever you're calling it is over).

Thanks for the feedback durin42. We will definitely be opening up once we launch to the public.
