1528 SoundHound has announced the launch of a new, free version of its popular mobile app for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. The free app includes five searches per month, and offers the same rich features and blazing fast music recognition as the premium app, SoundHound Infinity. The SoundHound App can identify recorded music as well as songs users sing or hum.

"Our free app puts SoundHound in the hands of more users, allowing the magic of instant search and discovery to be shared across even more fans as a result."
"Fans love that the SoundHound App helps them search, discover, and share music instantly," said Keyvan Mohajer, CEO of SoundHound. "Our free app puts SoundHound in the hands of more users, allowing the magic of instant search and discovery to be shared across even more fans as a result."

The existing premium application that millions of music fans already enjoy is now called SoundHound Infinity – a nod to its unlimited search and discovery – and designated with the ∞ symbol. The free app inherits the SoundHound name; music fans wanting more than five searches a month can easily upgrade to the SoundHound Infinity App from within the free application – and retain their history and bookmarks.

The SoundHound App has instant mobile music search and discovery. Features in both the SoundHound and SoundHound Infinity Apps include:

* Blazing fast music recognition. Fans can identify music playing from a speaker (radio, TV, films) in as little as four seconds.

* Sing & Hum music recognition. If fans can carry a tune, the SoundHound App can identify it.

* Voice-directed search. Fans simply speak a Title or Artist to explore and get results instantly, including links to video, discography, artist info and more.

* Instant sharing with integrated and customizable email, Facebook and Twitter options.

* What's Hot, Underplayed, and being newly ID'd on SoundHound around the world.

* Lyrics, videos, tour dates, and other rich content.

* Integrated Pandora radio stations. Discover something new and cool on the SoundHound App and use Pandora to quickly create a new station around it.
