Premium launches, mobile listening begins

Letsmix Premium

We’re thrilled to announce the Premium membership launch at Let’s Mix today. Those little golden hifi icons by the mix players which have begun sprucing up the front page indicate the higher bit rate for Premium mix streams. The premium membership also lets you promote your mixes, and listen to any Let’s Mix content, from your iPhone. You can run the free version as well for demo purposes, or to listen to Premium member mixes using their promo code. There are also Premium DJ competitions, not open to public, but packed with great prizes. Right now there’s a $7,500 DJ Mag print and online campaign at stake, which one lucky Premium member gets away with, in the current Premium member competitions (deadlines for submission August 31st).

Be among the first to sign up and earn €10 download credits at Juno, as well as three months membership for free.

These are of course a few of the things going on, a full list of features can be found the Let’s Mix Premium pages.
