About Selecteh

New social music handpicked by you

Every month, we publish selections of new music by artists on fair platforms. You can get them in your mailbox or in your Fediverse account.

Our algorithm is simple: we like it, we select it. Human intelligence and personal taste promoting the social music that moves us.

Our motivation is also simple: we love social music and we want to spread it. We are a small community project run by volunteers. We do this for free, for us, and for you.

You can support us! Subscribe to a selecteh, share it in your communities, and send us recommendations.

You can join us! Create your selecteh. Define your style, disclose your taste. Promote social music handpicked by you.
