Ricall, the music research and licensing service used primarily by broadcasters seeking music for their programming or promotional activity, has announced it has incorporated a new search engine into its system, utilising software developed by a company called Soundflavour (formerly Siren Systems).
I don't quite follow how this all works myself, but Ricall says that the Soundflavour search facility "provides unparalleled music search and recommendation facilities to music professionals and consumers, utilising the world's most advanced music search and recommendation technology to navigate vast song collections", so now you know.
Confirming the integration of Soundflavour into the Ricall system, the company's MD, Richard Corbett, told CMU: "Our service is dependent on two things, the size of our catalogue and the capabilities of our search technology. With the success of this test, our clients can now receive the best of both aspects. The new search facility will make an immediate and tangible difference to anyone using Ricall to search for and license music."
