New logo: Explanations 💜

After the announcement of the new logo and the new identity of Deezer, we took the time to read all your comments and feedback in order to address your concerns and understand your feelingsOpinions are very divided and several details were pointed out, including one that came up quite often: Why did you choose a heart 💜?One comment cited “there is a more distant connection to music compared to the old logo” The beating purple heart simply represents love and passion for music. The shapes of the logo vary to signify musical rhythms. Its movement and pulsing quality directly reflect the essence of music and the human response to the listening experience, much like a heartbeat. Another question was “why did you decide to change everything/what is the purpose of this new identity?”Deezer helps you “be and belong,” going beyond streaming to empower fans, artists and partners to express themselves and connect through our products and services.Refreshing our visual identity is essential as w

Deezer Community, bringing people together.Blog

 Thanks to MyDeezerYear and our Best of 2021 Awards, we have been analyzing the ups and downs (mainly the ups) of 2021!  We are leaving another year of restrictions and lockdowns behind. In the past two years we were  forced to be separated and we had to reinvent ways of connecting to one another. It was hard but virtual communities have helped all of us to feel less lonely and cross all the bridges we encountered together.  We want to go back to basics and celebrate our Community, for being a Community!  The love for music and tech brought us all here, but let’s not forget that a Community is made of people which is why, we came up with a little game to get to know each other better and shed a little light on who hides behind the Deezer Avatars you see all the time! Not to worry, everything is GDPR compliant! 🤘🏼 We have asked our Deezer Legends to start the game answering this little quiz, so you can learn more about them and the precious work they do here. Not only Legends from our

What will be the first album you will listen to with gapless playback?

In courtesy of @Rudi replying to my suggestion in the related gapless playback announcement from seven months ago I’ll make a new thread with the same question.  As all suffering desktop users know, gapless playback is neither working in the desktop app nor in the web player yet while most mobile users are already having gapless fun - scandal!  So what will be the first album you will listen to when gapless playback is finally working in your app? Mobile users are tolerated to post their first album as well that they have listened to when gapless playback became available on their mobile device.  Also using MP3 streaming instead of HiFi is allowed, even if this may take longer to become available for your favorite album than HiFi gapless playback on desktop.I’ll probably start with Richard Wagner’s complete opera cycle “Der Ring des Nibelungen”, all four operas in a row, more than 14 hours of sweet G_A_P_L_E_S_S HiFi lossless FLAC music. I’m undecided yet which performance and/or condu

Music has the power to inspire, to heal, and to bring people together ☮️

International Day of Peace is celebrated every year on September 21st with great enthusiasm all over the world. This day offers an opportunity to promote mutual understanding and tolerance between people of all cultures and origins.  “When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.” - Jimi HendrixIt can be noted that many musicians have contributed to promoting it through their music and their commitment. Artists such as John Lennon and his iconic song “Imagine” called for a world without borders and conflicts.Bob Marley used his music to convey messages of peace and unity, such as in Get Up, Stand Up.Joan Baez is a civil rights activist who sang for justice and non-violence.  These musicians, among others, showed how music could idealise differences and inspire harmony between people, reminding us that music is a powerful tool that promotes peace. Music plays an essential role in the quest for peace. It goes beyond linguistic and cultural boundaries, cre

UCPS: I'm looking forward to be part of it!

Hi Deezer, I am really interested in your new upcoming UCPS policy and I am looking forward to be part of it! I toyed with the simulator to see my artists but it only showed me my top 5 artists from Sept 2019 (6 months ago at time of writing). When it rolls out, if it does, will we have the possibility to see the full breakdown of our subscription for each artist of the current and previous months? Also, out of curiosity, what happens for music in the public domain? Claude Debussy was lucky enough to get 4% of my Sept 2019 subscription , I hope he spends it wisely to pimp his grave.

For all those who have expressed frustration at price increases

YouTube Premium Family plan is going from US $14.99 to $22.99. And of course Spotify is rumored to be rolling out a Platinum tier for $20-25/mo that includes HiFi (and likely moves Spotify Wrapped and other features behind the Platinum tier). Amazon Music just raised their Family sub price.I know none of this makes it any easier on us, but it seems to be the way things are moving. The cost of everything around me has gone up.Deezer is feature-laden, innovative, offers HiFi quality, and continues to represent a value in the industry.

Happy birthday Harry Styles!

 The British singer turns 30 today and has achieved a lot at such a young age! In honour of his birthday we want to look at his journey and achievements so far.  2010 – 2016 - Early Days Harry's music career started at the early age of only 16. In 2010 he auditioned for the The X Factor in the UK as a solo artist and sang a version of Steve Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely". Harry made it to boot but didn't get through to the judges. He and four other boys who didn't make it were put into a group – One Direction was born.  Along with Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik, Harry reached the final of The X Factor and came third. After their first single "What Makes You Beautiful" was released in 2011, the boys quickly began to conquer the world. Harry and the 1D boys celebrated huge success and won over 200 awards. In 2016, however, they all decided to take a break to focus on their solo careers.  2017 – 2018 - First Solo Album and Film Debut  In 2017 Harry released his first

Samples: A journey through music history

SamplesA journey through music history.  A Beyoncé’s special.  To celebrate the release of Beyoncé’s new album, our Brazilian Community Manager, Fabio spoke with music expert Dan, from @SomdoDan.Dan is present on all social networks platforms talking about music.Do you know what his expertise is? Talking about samples.With extremely creative and informative videos, Dan can make a very technical subject, FUN!  For starters, Fabio asked him what was the first work he remembers that was based on a sample.I would say a song, which is actually an instrumental piece, called Axel F by Crazy Fog. I think I was 10 years old, in 2004, when this song came out. Which is a 1984 sample of Axel F. The point is that the keyboard used in the original song was used as a sample. It went global. bursted. It exploded! Do you remember the track Dan is referring to?  Original song:  Sampled track:   What is the history of sampling? Sampling consists in using other artists’ recordings, old or recent, in a new

Miley Cyrus: Revisiting Miley's most iconic eras

It’s been 10 years today since the legendary Bangerz album was released by Miley Cyrus. Breaking records and stigma around her Hannah Montana image, this album was a shift in Miley’s career. It reminds us how well she can transform and reincarnate herself. A decade later, we celebrate all of Miley’s eras by going back into her most iconic eras.  "Meet Miley Cyrus" (2007) and "Breakout" (2008): Disney Princess to Pop Sensation Miley Cyrus arrived on the music scene with her debut album, "Meet Miley Cyrus" At this stage, she was best known for her role as Disney's Hannah Montana. The album showcased her transition from a child star to a pop sensation. On the cover, she had to put Hannah's face as well as her brunette version, to make sure her audience would recognise, she is still then very associated with her character. The Breakout album featured a more mature sound, with a focus on pop-rock elements. Her look shifted towards a more edgy, rock-inspired style. During that period, the fi

Today we celebrate Rock day and we passed the Mic to Rod, our Rock and Metal Editor who told us about his passion for these genres, his dream concert, music discoveries in 2023 and more… How long have you been working for Deezer?I was hired on January 2020, just a few weeks before CoVid.What does it mean to be a music Editor and how did you become one?For me, it means to know a lot about your genre, its history and its fans, it means to be involved in it too. Before working at Deezer I was a music journalist so I always liked to share my passion for music, in every possible way.Where does your passion for Rock and Metal come from?Back in teenagehood, I was making fanzines and compilations. Since I was living in the countryside, I had an urge to share and exchange with people all around the world. I come from punk, tape-making, record trading, a DIY world that undeniably forged my vision of music in general. I worked for the media and now the industry but I’ll always have this outsider

Taylor regains power 💪 ✨

✨ Why is Taylor so powerful? ✨ Let us explain the (re)release of her album Speak Now Taylor is releasing today a new version of her 2010 album 'Speak Now', originally her 3rd album, which she wrote on her own between the ages of 18 and 20. Currently on a sold-out world tour, with tickets selling out in the hands of fans, the American singer unveiled on stage the release of the album, which features well-known tracks such as Back to December, Dear John and Enchanted.  It fills me with such pride and joy to announce that my version of Speak Now will be out July 7 (just in time for July 9th, iykyk 😆) I first made Speak Now, completely self-written, between the ages of 18 and 20.

Goodbye 2023 - Our highlights at Deezer

2023 is coming to an end and a lot has happened this year at Deezer.The entire Community team wants to share their highlights on Deezer and we invite you all to do the same in the comments! ⭐  The rebranding was undoubtedly the highlight of the year, and everyone worked very hard to make it possible. And although some may not agree, I increasingly like the vibrant colours, design, and graphics. But aside from the rebranding, what I really enjoyed this year were the various Deezer Sessions, especially the Rooftop Sessions in the Summer on the rooftop of our HQ in Paris, with guest DJs like Alok and Purple Disco Machine, or the special edition in Amsterdam with Claptone. And lately, the sessions with renowned artists, such as Arlo Parks, Gregory Porter, and Jon Batiste. I hope 2024 brings only good things and we can take the Community experience to a whole new level. Jaime, English and Spanish Community Manager It's been a year of big changes for Deezer, and one of the highlights for me

Make way for the Queen!

 👑 She is back! 👑   The anticipation is building up and this friday July 29th we will FINALLY be able to listen to Renaissance, Beyoncé’s latest body of work.  We know Queen Bey is not one to share too much information, but she did say…“With all the isolation and injustice over the past year, I think we are all ready to escape, travel, love, and laugh again. I feel a renaissance emerging, and I want to be part of nurturing that escape in any way possible.”From the little information shared we know this album will take us back to the House music scene of the 80s and 90s and to its black Chicago roots, to club kid culture and the excesses of Studio 54!Her wish is that this album“inspires you to release the wiggle. Ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are”, her own words!  Her first single “Break My Soul” was intentionally released to align with the summer solstice on June 21st and mark the start of a “new era with new anthems”  and it notoriously samples the ‘90s house cl
