Deezer launches cross platform sharing app enabling users to connect with friends on different music apps. Shaker lets you share and enjoy music with anyone even if you don’t use the same streaming platform. With just a few clicks, a mix that blends everyone’s favourite songs is generated. Shaker also lets you discover how compatible you and your friends are through fun shareable insights based on how musically similar your tastes are.
With Shaker’s intuitive interface (shaker.deezer.com), you can add up to 14 friends to a group effortlessly using a link. Even if you are not on Deezer, your music library can be imported from every major music streaming platform with just a few clicks, with no need to download the Deezer app.
The Shaker algorithm helps you get started by generating a mix including a selection of 70 songs tailored to your group’s preferences. If you’re not happy with the selection, you can easily refresh the mix with one click. If you enjoy curating playlists from scratch, Shaker also lets you pick and choose yourself.
Ultimately, the Shaker experience is not just about playlists. You can also discover shareable insights, including your friends’ musical profiles, guilty pleasures and how compatible (or not!) you are with the rest of the group. You can even dive deeper into your compatibility with the individual group members and discover recommended artists and songs both of you might like.
Alexandra Leloup, VP Product at Deezer said “Shaker is designed to create a feeling of connection, encourage people to experience music more freely, erase the boundaries between friends, and create a space where you can discover new songs to fall in love with. To achieve this, it was key to not only include tailored playlists based on the musical tastes of users and their friends, but to make sure everyone can join in no matter which streaming platform they use.”
