SoundCloud now beta testing an app for Windows 10, Xbox One

Updated May 31, 2017: Shortly after this post went live, SoundCloud also announced it's now available on Xbox One.

Original story: SoundCloud fans on Windows 10 are in for a treat, as the company has begun testing a new app on the Windows Store. A beta version of SoundCloud's new app is now available to check out, offering up access to the service's full catalog of streaming tracks.

If you're already a SoundCloud user, then you'll know what to expect here. The service is claiming more than 120 million free tracks are available, along with easy music discovery. SoundCloud's charts are also here, showing the top tracks in each genre, along with "The Upload" — SoundCloud's personalized playlist of new music (similar to Spotify's Discover Weekly playlist).

Outside of its features, the app looks pretty good to boot, sporting a sort of frosted glass aesthetic behind its content. Cortana support also lets you control the app with your voice.

SoundCloud is a bit of a different beast than Groove or Spotify, which is also set to release a Windows Store app, so it's good to see it hit the Store. Keep in mind that this is currently available on PC only; no word on when or if it'll hit Mobile.If you're a big fan of SoundCloud, you can check out the beta app on the Windows Store now.

Thanks for the tips, everyone!
