Auryo – A Cross-Platform Desktop Client for SoundCloud

For the longest time, it seemed that those of us who are both Linux & SoundCloud users would be forever cursed with having to use a Web browser on our desktops in order to enjoy the application. But I bring you great news!

There is now an unofficial desktop client for SoundCloud and it goes by the name of Auryo. Gone are the days when you were forced to use a browser to stream Soundcloud content. Now it is a scroll and a click away.

Auryo is is an unofficial cross-platform SoundCloud desktop client that features an amazing and aesthetically pleasing UI design together with support for SoundCloud‘s features.

Unlike when using SoundCloud in the browser, Auryo lets you continue working while enjoying your music without the need to go back and forth between your desktop and the browser.
