Recently, Twitter announced they invested $70 million in the music service SoundCloud so I decided to take a look at the company and what I found was pretty surprising. SoundCloud was much, much larger than I expected.
Here are a few of the most interesting SoundCloud statistics and facts I was able to dig up. As always, be sure to check back in the future as I will be updating this post as new and updated stats become available.
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from SoundCloud’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.

This is made possible by an open platform that directly connects creators and their fans across the globe.
