A New Music Discovery App for Rap, Drill, Afrobeats, R&B, Amapiano and Electronic Music
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA — 2 September 2026 — BTR Music, a music streaming, discovery and community platform built for listeners who want more than the same names and recycled playlists, is now officially available on both iOS and Android.
Listeners can now download BTR Music from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
BTR Music brings full-track streaming, emerging artists, established names, daily music drops, track battles, playlists, charts, local scenes, events and direct artist connection into one mobile experience.
The platform covers music across hip hop, rap, trap, drill, R&B and Soul, Afrobeats, Amapiano, dancehall, reggae, grime, gospel, Latin Urban, electronic music, house, techno, drum and bass, garage, bass, breaks, trance, global club and more.
The launch introduces a different approach to music discovery: one designed to help listeners break out of repetitive recommendation loops and find artists before everyone else does.
Break the Loop and Find What Is Next
Music recommendations should not feel like reruns.
Too often, listeners open a music app and find the same artists, the same playlists and the same tracks being presented again. BTR Music was built to create more room for discovery.
The app gives listeners immediate access to full tracks while creating new ways to explore music by genre, subgenre, country, artist, chart movement and local scene.
Instead of relying entirely on passive recommendations, BTR Music encourages listeners to actively participate in discovery. They can listen to unknown tracks, vote in battles, scout emerging artists, follow movement across charts and explore what is gaining attention within different music communities.
The result is a music app where discovery is not simply something that happens in the background. It becomes part of the experience.
Stream Full Tracks Without a Signup Wall
BTR Music is designed to make listening easy from the first open.
New listeners can open the app and begin exploring music without being stopped by an immediate account-creation wall. They can stream full tracks, move across genres and discover artists before deciding whether they want to create an account.
Creating an account unlocks the wider BTR Music experience, including the ability to:
- Follow artists
- Save listening history
- Build and share playlists
- Like and support tracks
- Participate in music battles
- Join social features
- Message participating artists
- RSVP to music events
- Support artists through available direct-to-fan features
This anonymous-first experience gives listeners a chance to understand the app through the music itself.
Discover Emerging Artists Before They Break
BTR Music is built around the idea that discovering an artist early should mean something.
The platform combines several discovery experiences to help listeners find music beyond established charts and algorithmic repetition.
Drop Roulette
Drop Roulette presents listeners with an unknown track before revealing the artist’s name, artwork or existing popularity.
The listener hears the music first and makes a decision based on the track—not the artist’s follower count, image or reputation.
Scout
When listeners find an artist or track early, they can Scout it and begin building a record of what they supported before the wider audience arrived.
Scout turns early discovery into part of a listener’s identity within BTR Music.
Power Charts
BTR Music Power Charts reflect movement and listener activity across different genres, subgenres and countries.
Rather than offering only one global chart dominated by the largest releases, Power Charts create more ways to see which tracks and artists are gaining momentum within specific communities.
Track Battles
Track Battles place music head-to-head and allow listeners to decide which track wins.
Battles create an active, competitive discovery experience while giving artists another opportunity to reach new listeners.
Explore Rap, Afrobeats, Amapiano, R&B and Electronic Music
BTR Music brings multiple music cultures and scenes together without reducing them to one generic category.
Listeners can explore:
- Hip hop and rap
- Trap and drill
- R&B and Soul
- Afrobeats and Afropop
- Amapiano
- Dancehall and reggae
- Latin Urban
- Grime
- Phonk
- Jersey Club
- Gospel
- Instrumentals and samples
- Club music
- Full-length DJ mixes
- House and groove
- Techno and hard electronic music
- Drum and bass and jungle
- Garage, bass and breaks
- Trance and festival music
- Global club
- Leftfield and chill electronic music
This broader genre structure helps listeners move between global music movements, regional sounds and emerging subgenres without leaving the app.
Find Music Through Local Scenes
Music does not move only through global charts. It moves through cities, communities, clubs, events and local audiences.
The BTR Music SCENE experience is designed to connect digital discovery with real-world music activity.
Listeners can explore local music signals, see what is gaining attention, browse events and discover artists connected to different locations and communities.
BTR Music also supports music event discovery, enabling listeners to browse events, RSVP and share them with friends.
The goal is to make local music activity more visible while connecting listeners with the artists, tracks and events shaping their scene.
Music Discovery Becomes Social
BTR Music treats music as something people experience together.
Listeners can follow artists, build playlists, share tracks and carry music into conversations. Participating users can also add friends and create Crews—private, music-first group spaces built around tracks, artists, playlists, events and real-time discussion.
A listener can discover a track, send it to friends, discuss the artist, build a playlist around it and find an event without moving between multiple disconnected platforms.
This creates a more direct relationship between listening, discovery and community.
Get Closer to the Artists You Support
Streaming is only one part of the relationship between an artist and a listener.
BTR Music supports direct artist connection and, where available, gives listeners additional ways to support participating artists.
These features can include:
- Artist tips
- Superfan access
- Artist and track backing
- Personalised artist Shoutouts
- Exclusive releases and updates
- Direct artist messaging
- Digital rewards and collectibles
Availability depends on the artist and region, but the broader objective remains the same: helping artists build stronger direct relationships with the people who value their music.
