NAME THAT TUNE GOES SOCIAL AS LALILALA LETS
EVERYONE SHARE SONGS BY SINGING
Tuesday 7August, 2012
Social singing game Lalilala has launched so people can guess
the songs their friends are
singing to score points and move up the charts.
The FREE to play iOS game available on iPhones and iPads and
powered by leading
music streaming service Deezer enables friends to sing a popular
song then send it to a
friend, who then has to guess the track in order to score
points.
Think that sounds easy? Think again the app enables people to
choose music wherever
they are from Deezers library of 18 million songs.
Lalilala was one of the winners at the first Deezer music
hackathons in Paris. Speaking at the
event, Lalilala creator Romain Sion said:
Music presents limitless creative opportunities to developers,
and the Open Deezer
platform is a great new opportunity to build amazing experiences
around music thats
what Lalilala is about.
With 23 million people now using Deezer across 88 markets
globally Deezers Open Music
API offers developers the opportunity to build social
experiences around music for millions.
Lalilala takes advantage of a simple set of easy to implement
APIs which enable
developers to build rich games and applications using the songs
within the Deezer music
catalogue.
Friends can either pick from a diverse range of obscure tracks,
or if theyre feeling kinder,
attempt to cover the biggest hits.
The app quickly pulls in a persons friend list from Facebook, at
which point they canchoose a song, sing it and send it to a
friend.
The recipient then listens to their friends recording and
guesses the track to earn points
before responding with a song of their own.
If people playing the game pick songs currently popular among
Deezer subscribers, it is
likely we will all be hearing friends renditions of We Are
Youngs Fun, Carly Rae Jepsens
Call Me Maybe and Coldplays Princess of China.
