Instagram estrena canal de música

NUEVA YORK - Instagram, que se convirtió rápidamente en la plataforma social favorita de las estrellas, lanzó el miércoles un canal dedicado a la música.La cuenta @Music ?primer canal de contenido de este estilo dirigido por Instagram? destacará semanalmente a un artista en ascenso u ofrecerá una mirada tras bastidores de un músico más establecido.Esta nueva cuenta estará "dedicada a explorar la música de todo el mundo, desde aquellos que la crean hasta la comunidad que la rodea", dijo el presidente ejecutivo y cofundador de Instagram, Kevin Systrom, en el blog de la empresa.

The music community is ?? and always has been ?? an important part of Instagram. For the past four years, we have become the home for artists big and small ?? a place where people across the musical spectrum come to share stories, reveal their creativity and connect directly with fans. Today we?re launching @music, a new account dedicated to exploring music around the globe, from those who create it to the community around it. Each week, we?ll take a look at the musical experience on Instagram. That means showing you a different side of artists you know and love, like Questlove (@questlove), and introducing you to up-and-coming talents from around the world, like Tricot (@ikkyu193). It means highlighting music photographers, album illustrators, instrument makers and, of course, fans. In the Instagram tradition, we will also welcome community participation with a new, music-themed monthly hashtag project. Music is a huge part of all of our lives here at Instagram. It?s a passion of ours, and we know it?s a passion of yours. So follow along at @music ?? we think you?ll discover something new. -- Kevin Systrom, Founder and CEO Art by @jaredeberhardt

Enfocado en el aspecto visual, Instagram ha protagonizado un notorio crecimiento desde su lanzamiento en 2010 gracias en parte a la moda mundial de las selfis y el aumento de la calidad de las cámaras de los teléfonos portátiles.Los músicos en particular se han abocado a esta red para comunicarse con sus fans y ofrecerles desde fotos profesionales hasta tomas sencillas de sus vidas cotidianas.Facebook, que tiene más de mil millones de usuarios, compró Instagram en 2012 por un estimado de mil millones de dólares

Since 2010, Ikkyu Nakajima (@ikkyu193), Motoko ?Motifour? Kida and Hiromi ?Hirohiro? Sagane have been on a journey with no destination ? an endless road trip of instant ramen, rock climbing walls and fake mustaches. The girls make up the band Tricot (pronounced ?tree-ko,? after the French word for a type of knitting), a math rock trio based in Kyoto with a penchant for emotional vocals layered over complex guitar riffs. ?When we first started Tricot we thought that we wanted to be signed to a big record label but we don't think it's cool at all,? says Nakajima, who plays guitar and sings. ?The way we?re doing things at the moment, we have absolutely no idea what?s going to happen next ? and that?s precisely why we want to do it this way.? ??
