I see from your website that Aurender is not supported. Why is that?
I built a music discovery app for Tidal and Qobuz users. A lot has changed since launch.
Some of you might remember my first post about Sonic Oracle. I built it because I personally needed it and nothing like it existed. I wanted to type in an artist I love and get back a playlist of artists I’ve never heard of who share something with them. Not algorithmic "people also listened to" suggestions. Deeper connections based on sound, style, and taste.
Since launch, the app has grown significantly.
Genre coverage expanded to 44+ sub-genres across 10 genre families. K-pop, city pop, gypsy jazz, acid jazz, darkwave, krautrock, fado, klezmer, djent, sludge metal, flamenco, cumbia... if your taste runs deep, Sonic Oracle goes there now.
Niche and cross-genre artists work much better. Obscure composers, experimental artists, soundtrack creators. Seeds like these used to return thin results. Not anymore.
The newest feature is click-to-discover. When your playlist comes back, click any artist in the results to start a new search from them. Chain one discovery into the next without going back to the search bar.
Three discovery depths: Essential (closest matches), Balanced (a mix), Adventurous (deep cuts you won’t find elsewhere). Adventurous is where it gets interesting.
Playlists land directly in your Tidal or Qobuz library. Roon, Audirvana, Bluesound, WiiM, and every other app or streamer picks them up instantly.
Still a solo developer. Still improving it every week.
Free to try at sonicoracle.music
Three playlists, no credit card needed

I tried launch the trial of your software when it was released..couldn’t get it to run. Something appears to need to install... My system (just malwarebytes and ad blocker) might be preventing it..no idea. I find the combo of Aurender Conductor/Qobuz to offer excellent suggestions based on a cleaned out queue and just a starter album added...much like what is described with spotify above, and I can save the suggested stream to a Conductor or Qobuz playlist.
But..I’d still like to try SO |
Nothing needs to install, it runs entirely in the browser. The Qobuz connection uses a one-time bookmarklet (a small bookmark you drag to your toolbar), which some ad blockers can interfere with. Two things to try: 1. Temporarily disable your ad blocker on sonicoracle.music and play.qobuz.com, then follow the setup steps. 2. Watch this short video walkthrough, it covers the full connection process in under 3 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsrLvHNFu-A&feature=youtu.be Once connected, it works from any device (phone, tablet, desktop) without the bookmarklet again. Happy to help if you run into anything. Alessandro |
