Free Soundcloud alternatives - the top 3

SoundCloud is the world's largest musician community - but there are free alternatives. We present the top 3 in this article.

Free Soundcloud alternative "hearthis"

With hearthis there is a similar alternative to SoundCloud:

• Right at the beginning you get an overview of the range of functions: You can import songs from SoundCloud and Mixcloud. The portal also has a music recognition function.
• With a free account at hearthis, you have unlimited storage space. Only the traffic is limited. For 34.99 euros per year or 4.99 per month, you can circumvent the limit.
• You can log in with your Facebook account, but even without registration you have access to the range of music.

Mixcloud streaming service

Mixcloud is an online music streaming service. You have access to a large music library and can also become active yourself and share your songs with the community.

• Mixcloud is also available on the go. The manufacturer offers an app for iOS and Android.
• On the home page you will find an overview of the charts and can play them directly. The different types of music are divided into individual categories.
• With an account you can upload unlimited songs for free and share them with your friends on Facebook. In contrast to "hearthis" there is no traffic limit.
• It should also be noted that there is no download function yet. Therefore, you as a user are dependent on a working internet connection.
• You can stream electronic music in particular on the platform. So far, other genres of music have been poorly represented.

Another free service: Bandcamp

The free version of Bandcamp is also very popular.

• Bandcamp primarily contains unknown artists who do not yet represent a label. On the start page you can quickly see which music genres are most in demand - they are highlighted. The use of the website is free of charge.
• If you like a set, you can also purchase it. To do this, click on "Buy Now".
• If you have written a track yourself, you can also offer it for download. You choose whether you want the title to be downloaded free of charge or for a fixed fee.
