Comments on Hype Machine for Android

★★★★★ Chris Haggen · Aug 2, 2021

I've been supporting this platform since 2010, when I first learned such a transformative idea was taking shape on the World Wide Web. Now, present day, music is rife with "influencers, now trending, hit makers, and auto-tunes galore" in every nook and crany of the very sounds our music makes. So this will provide an efficient way of broadening your taste in music. Because the same things that were great 10 years ago with Hype Machine, are still present and fulfilling today.

Been using this for years. So great for finding great new music.

★☆☆☆☆ Nik Alvarez · Oct 1, 2019

Love hype machine but this app keeps crashing on my note 8. It will play a song for a minute or two and then crash. Update 10/01/2019: Still broken. Songs play for 20 seconds or so and then stop. I can't play them, only restart or go to next track.

★★☆☆☆ Opal M · Dec 15, 2021

I reaaaaally love this app when it's working. I've been using this website for over a decade now and am such an advocate for keeping it going. The app, though, has been giving me playback errors for over a month now, and it's making me sad 😔
