Amazing. I just signed up my music project, and while I'm really glad to see you've made the path for artists to get on the service easy, I'm curious what sort of gatekeeping / curation will help maintain the signal-to-noise ratio. Ideally, you have something somewhere in between the hard-to-crack-unless-you're–with-a-major label of Pandora and the total free-for-all of some past services like Amie Street, but that's a notoriously difficult line to walk.

We do have manual curation in place. We are not very strict with the filtering but we ensure nothing bad comes in. After the great, good and average comes in, we let the algorithms take over and decide based on user activity, what kind of music to let surface.
