Israeli social music streaming service raises 200k in seed round.

Echo is a social music streaming service that helps music fans share their music effortlessly, in real-time; after completing

the Startup Bootcamp accelerator in Tel aviv, it has recently made a seed round of $200k from Imperious Group, a

growing fund based in Saint-Petersburg and SAMCO, Paris based family office investing into leading hedge mobile

technology. Coming out at the end of summer, it will be available as a native mobile app for iOS and Android, and as a

web platform.

Humans more than algorithms!

Echo challenges the main music platforms in the market, such as

Songza, Spotify and Beats Music; like their competitors,

Echo is solving two problems:

1. what music should people listen to according to their current

activity or mood and

2. what song should follow in the playlist; this is why Echo went

down the path of human curation rather than suggestive

algorithms.

The team believes humans are a lot better at knowing how other

humans feel about music, than any algorithm out there. What makes

Echo different is that it’s making the playlist building, upload seamless,

with the focus on immediate sharing and communication among

peers.

Vision

Echo is a social music platform; users create and curate playlists

directly from their device, share it as a personal radio on a feed,

where others can find them and tune in based on location or following

their profiles.

What is Echo right now?

The startup first came out with an app that crowdsourced mobile

device speakers, to create a sound system out of mobile devices. One

device starts the session, others connect, and the app plays music on

all speakers in sync. Currently available for iOS, while Android is on

the way. After successfully building and releasing the app, they

realized the technology could be much more. From this point, they

pivoted and began working with a new goal: give music lovers a

platform where they can express themselves and find good music.

What’s coming for Echo?

Echo is now becoming a music service for sharing playlists in real-

time; you can create a personal radio station from the devices in your

pocket; one grabs the music from her library, creates a playlist and

shares it instantly with other users, through a feed of music streams.

The service will still have the feature to create sound-systems out of

their devices, with additional capabilities for personal and group use

cases.

Technology

Echo streams music from one devices to many and syncs playbacks,

all through the cloud. A user creates a stream, generates a playlist,

using music stored on her devices and other music sources alike

(SoundCloud for now). The stream is now on Echo’s feed, the user

can share it with others, while other users can join the session. Streams

are displayed either by location or by following people.
