Apple has launched its Apple Music Sing karaoke service, Spotify also offers the lyrics of your songs when Deezer multiplies the festive interactions to the point of offering a blind test on its application.
In music, the party is crazier. As the end-of-year festivities loom on the horizon and often take place with family or friends, music streaming services are sharpening their weapons to be part of the party.
Apple launched its service this week Apple Music Song which allows you to enjoy tens of millions of titles from the catalog in karaoke version, on iPhone and iPadbut also on Apple TV 4K. Based on its catalog of tens of millions of titles, the Californian company then offers the lyrics that scroll in real time, but above all the possibility of adjusting the sound, between the original voice and yours, to sing strong. Apple Music Sing is available on iPhone 11 and later, iPad 9th and 10th generation, iPad Air and iPad Pro.
Competitions and blind tests in sight
But Apple Music isn’t the only streaming service to celebrate and sing along. Spotify and Deezer also give the possibility of displaying the lyrics of the songs on their application, but by line of text in real time. The first should soon also enrich its karaoke service with an option that will delight more than one: the possibility of registering and knowing your score.
Spotify Karaoke is for the moment being tested on certain accounts – and no need to be a Premium subscriber – and offers, at the level of the words, to activate the microphone. You sing your favorite song and the app scales your performance with a precision score. What to compare with his friends in solo or duo.
Pioneer of the karaoke function, Deezer has been displaying song lyrics since 2014. The French service even offers translation. If you don’t necessarily find it practical to have the lyrics on the phone, and if you have a Chromecast key connected to your television or compatibility on smart TV, it is possible to share the function to sing together in front of the TV. The option is offered to all users, but also on Xbox consoles.
If you don’t want to sing and prefer blind tests, Deezer has recently added hundreds of playlists to test your musical knowledge by theme, musical style or artist: one song, 30 seconds to find the title among four proposals and points to to earn.
Singing apps
And there are also different apps for hosting home karaoke during the holidays.
Smule allows you to sing solo or with Internet users from all over the world. The karaoke game gives the possibility of being the most precise and of accumulating points by singing the right note at the right time. And you can even treat yourself to a few studio effects to make your voice sound perfect.
If you have already scoured the karaoke rooms, you could not have missed the KaraFun catalog, very often used. The service has its application in smartphone, tablet, computer and even smart TV versions. You will have access to more than 51,000 songs to sing.
Available on tablet and online, Stingray Karaoke Party has some 20,000 titles in its catalog, in all languages. You can record your voice over the song and share your performance.
