The deal represents a significant move forward for the adoption of music streaming in India. MixRadio has already introduced over 20 million people in the region to music streaming, and this deal will allow millions more to access a highly personalised music experience for free.
MixRadio has been analysing data on music listening in India for over 10 years, it’s catalogue spans 13 genres of Indian music including Bollywood, Telugu, Tamil to Punjabi, Bengali, Oriya and Marathi.

MixRadio will initially be pre-loaded on the new Samsung Z3, launching today. Music lovers will be able to access MixRadio’s catalogue of over 30 million tracks and thousands of curated mixes at the touch of a single button, straight out of the box. MixRadio will join other major apps available on Samsung’s new operating system, Tizen and will not be available on any other Android devices in the region.

We have the breadth of both international and local catalogue, plus the depth of data on that catalogue, to allow us to deliver an unparalleled personalized music streaming experience to music lovers on Samsung devices. We are delighted to be bringing the world’s simplest and most personal music streaming service to millions of new listeners through this partnership”.
