Hey everyone, I'm Itay, the creator of Mixshake, a music streaming service that generates a genre-mixing playlist with an infinite number of songs.

Like many people, I love to listen to music - while I'm working, driving, working out and, of course, chilling with friends. My favorite way of listening is to explore and combine several genres at the same time. My favorites are: dance, alternative and pop. I've been using many music streaming services and, unfortunately, I didn't find a service that allows me to listen to mixed-genre playlists and to change the playlist dynamically, according to my current mood. I found that this feature is missing everywhere - even on the larger streaming services.

This is why I created mixshake, a web application where you can do exactly this - stream music from YouTube and combine all the genres of music you like. The user chooses his/her favorite genres and the application generates an infinite playlist for him/her according to his/her choices. While playing, the user can tune the genres, for example, select "more pop" and "less alternative" and the playlist regenerates dynamically.

I would love to hear your feedback! If you have any tips or suggestions on how to build my community and drive traffic/new users, I'd be very happy to hear it.

Thank you in advance for your time and great ideas.

Really cool concept!
Thanks for your feedback!
