LOS ANGELES, May 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- LiveXLive Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIVX) ("LiveXLive"), a global digital media company focused on live entertainment, has been recognized as one of the top 10 "Best Online Music Streaming Services for 2020" by PC Mag and named the 'Best for Curated Channels.' The recognition puts LiveXLive alongside other music streaming notables like Amazon Music, Apple Music, SiriusXM, Spotify and YouTube Music, which were each listed on PC Mag's power list.
PC Mag highlights LiveXLive's DJ-hosted 'Artist: DNA' station, featuring established artists like Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Lizzo and greats like Miles Davis, as one example of the company's superior curatorial efforts. LiveXLive's 1100+ curated channels provide meaningful discovery for both consumers and artists alike.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, artists Echosmith, Brandy Clark, and Hot Chelle Rae have seen success with 'Locked Down Playlists' featuring songs that keep them going during these crazy times. LiveXLive has also produced a viral compilation called 'Tiger King Radio,' 'Homeschooling Soundtrack' and bar-scene tracks 'Virtual Lounge' tailored to cultural moments in time.
New curated live streamed performances and interviews from LiveXLive's own original series like 'LiveZone,' 'LiveXLive Presents' and 'Music Lives' and live streamed partner events with iHeartMedia, Global Citizen are added daily. So far this year, LiveXLive has already tripled its live performances having streamed over 936 artists since January 1, 2020 as compared to 300 artists in calendar year 2019. It's also diversified its offering to include comedy, news, pop culture and will soon add thousands of world-renowned podcasts with its recent acquisition of PodcastOne, expected to close in June 2020. The company recently announced plans to expand into pay-per-view live stream events further adding to LiveXLive's continuously growing library of content available to its audience.
LiveXLive also puts curation in the hands of its audience.
