The Echo Nest To Power New Spotify Radio (Which Begins Rolling Out Today)

For a long time now, Spotify has had its own Radio experience, but, to be honest, it hasn't been very good. Then, last week, the Swedish-turned-America music service announced that it was redesigning its radio experience from the ground up, offering unlimited stations and unlimited "skips". And it's no mistake that, during his presentation of the new Spotify Radio, CEO Daniel Ek happened to compare his app to Pandora. Since its IPO, Pandora has been on a kick, but Spotify is doing everything it can to continue nipping at its heels and has added 7 million new users since integrating with Facebook at f8. Enter: The Echo Nest, a music intelligence startup whose technology powers many music apps from media companies and independent developers
