The ways in which people enjoy music have always been shaped by new technologies: Electric amplification, for example, allowed artists to perform for larger crowds, which made the modern music festival possible. Later the invention of the walkman let individuals take their music into the world to provide a soundtrack to daily life. Now, there is finally a way to kick back and stream music together with your friends remotely and connect with others in virtual listening sessions: Hangout.
Hangout’s user-friendly interface lets you join or create a virtual room, with each person represented by a digital avatar. Select from different styles of venues—from a barn to a stadium to a fancy yacht party—step up to the DJ booth to start spinning your favorite songs for everyone in the room, and then watch the vibe meter begin to rise as the audience reacts to your selections. Whether you’re listening along while getting some work done or socializing in the chat, Hangout’s virtual environment lets you connect with both with friends and music lovers around the globe.
Hosts can control whether specific hangouts are more collaborative, with those present able to add songs to the queue, or more performative, with just a single DJ (or moderator), and rooms can be set to private or public. You can also easily import playlists from streaming services like Spotify, and if you like the mix in a particular hangout, you can save it as a playlist and open it in other apps. Hangout also offers seamless integration with Discord and will add a new musical dimension to communities on the platform.
Themed rooms like “I Love the ’80s” have already created thriving communities in Hangout’s beta version, with regular users gathering daily to share their favorite songs. The platform is also a rich resource to discover new music, whether you’re an A&R rep scouting new artists or just a casual listener looking for your next favorite song.
In a world in which streaming continues to dominate other forms of music listening, and with more and more people working from home, it will be exciting to see how the new technology offered by Hangout, as simple as it is, influences the way we stream music together.
