Resident Advisor launches listings app
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 25 June 2015
Electronic music website Resident Advisor has launched its first app which aims to do what Songkick and Bandsintown do for gigs, but for club nights and dance music events.
Which Songkick and Bandsintown might well argue they sort of do already, but Resident Advisor will be tapping into to its existing database of clubbing and dance music events, and reaching out to its existing community of clubbers and electronic music fans. Or, as RA co-founder Paul Clement says: “No other events app is entirely optimised for electronic music. The RA Guide is specifically built for our world”.
Explaining the app project in more detail, the site’s other co-founder Nick Sabine explains: “Millions of music fans already come to RA every month to discover new music, artists and events. We wanted to develop a product that enhanced that experience by combining RA’s extensive artist tour date data with important user information, like favourite artists and location, to deliver each user an entirely personalised app so they can find the world’s best parties”.
