DEEZER PARTNERS WITH PHILIPS TO DELIVER MUSIC DIRECTLY TO THE HOME

Thursday 30th August 2012 Leading music subscription service Deezer this week announced a global partnership with Philips to give music lovers unlimited access to a catalogue of over 18 million tracks directly to the home via the Philips Fidelio Wireless Hi-Fi range. Deezer, the first truly worldwide music listening service, allows you to discover and enjoy all the music you love at any time and from any device in more than 90 territories around the world. The partnership with Philips makes accessing Deezers extensive catalogue which includes unique artist-created playlists and recommendations from local music experts even more effortless, as the Philips Fidelio Wireless Hi-Fi range will now be fully integrated with the streaming service. Axel Dauchez, CEO of Deezer, said: Our mission is to remove the barriers to listening to music so our partnership with Philips makes perfect sense. For so many people, home is where they enjoy music the most. We want to be the best music service for delivering music to the home, and we are thrilled to partner with the best home entertainment companies to provide this. Edouard Petit, Marketing Manager, Audio at Philips, said: The way we listen to music is changing, and so is the technology we use for enjoying music at home. We are now living in a connected world, and we are increasingly enjoying streaming from the internet. Through our partnership with Deezer, the new Philips Fidelio Wireless Hi-Fi range gives you unlimited access to a whole universe of music at your fingertips. Deezers partnership with Philips was made possible owing to its Open Music API platform, which offers all developers the opportunity to build the Deezer service into cool new music apps, games and technology. The new Philips Fidelio Hi-Fi range fully integrated with Deezer is available globally now from all good electronic retailers. In addition to the Philips Fidelio Hi-Fi range, Deezers subscribers can also use the Deezer App, available on the App Store and Google Play to playback their music on Philips range of wireless speakers and docks. - Ends -
