Let’s dive in ⬇️

The hero now features the five songs on Sound that have seen the most momentum in the last 24 hours. 

It dynamically updates to showcase the songs that are resonating most with our community.

For each song, the avatars of the top five collectors are displayed with the number of editions they minted.

Browse the Viral Sounds that collectors are minting, playing, and curating.

Explore and listen to the upcoming drops on our homepage.

If you like what you’re hearing, add the song to a playlist, share, or set a notification so you don’t miss the drop.

We’ve added a live feed of the songs that top collectors are minting.

Our users often tell us that being able to see what others are minting leads them to discover new songs, so we wanted to experiment with different ways to provide that signal.

The top collectors each week are prominently highlighted on the homepage.

We want to celebrate the collectors supporting the incredible artists on Sound.

For the first time, we’ve added a section for viral playlists being created by our community.

Curators play an instrumental role in driving discovery, and we’re excited to make playlists a more central part of Sound.

Finally, browse recent drops on Sound. Tap on “See All” to browse the entire catalog.


This is another step in our journey towards opening up Sound in the coming months. 

We want Sound to be curated by our community – both artists and collectors – and our new homepage reflects exactly that. 

As usual, we’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Join the discussion on Twitter or Discord!
