Step 1
Tracks loved by the friends closest to your taste, that you've never played.
Step 2
Every catch stays in your collection for good.

Every track you catch stays in it for good. Rare finds count for more.
Whohears is a free Last.fm companion that plays you the tracks the people you follow are listening to that you've never heard, closest taste first. Listen a few seconds and a track is yours; catch ten from one friend to unlock their collection.
A public username is all it needs. Free, no password, never scrobbles.
Tiers come from the artist's global Last.fm listener count, so the same track is the same tier for everyone. Rarer catches pay more XP.
| Tier | Artist's Last.fm listeners | XP per catch |
|---|---|---|
| Common | 2.4M or more | 10 |
| Uncommon | 850K – 2.4M | 20 |
| Rare | 195K – 850K | 40 |
| Epic | 31K – 195K | 80 |
| Legendary | under 31K | 160 |
A Last.fm profile with scrobbles and a few friends, yes. A Whohears account, no — signing in only syncs across devices.
Press Play and listen. After five seconds the track is caught and kept in your collection, along with every other track your friends play that you haven't heard.
Catch ten tracks from one friend and their collection opens in Friends, with the rest of their top tracks to collect, and you can play just theirs.
By the artist's global Last.fm listeners: Common is 2.4M+, Legendary under 31K. Rarer catches pay more XP.
From shared artists and tracks, each artist weighted by rarity. It lands within one rung of Last.fm's own level about three times in four.
Neither. It reads the public Last.fm API and never writes to your profile.
