Amsterdam, The Netherlands, December 10th, 2008.
Dutch startup
Twones is going into private beta today. The Amsterdam based company connects fans, bands and music services by tracking the music and sites they enjoy. Twones tracks more than twenty services from MySpace to Last.FM to Hypemachine. Twones is a new way to store, organize, find & share music, both online and offline. Twones gathers your real-time music activity stream, lets your share it in real time with your buddies and store it like you own it.
Twones wants to make playing music on the web more organized, easy and enjoyable. "Let real people, relevant to you, collectively filter and recommend music and music services", says
Tim Heineke, with Diederik Martens and Johannes La Poutre founder of Twones. "Our goal is letting users find great music and sites and services through relevant people on cool music sites. We work together with the other services, we don't compete."
Twones received seed funding from a group of European Live Nation informals, the world's largest concert and music promoter. Twones went in private beta today with only few limited invites in preparation for the official release in the months to come.
