New “Letterboxd for clubbing” app lets you rate DJs after a night out
Seen Live also allows users to log gigs, upload photos and discover artists through other people’s reviews
A new app described as “Letterboxd for clubbing” has launched, allowing music fans to give star ratings to DJ sets, festivals and live shows.
Called Seen Live, the free app serves as a personal archive where users can record the club nights, concerts and other live music performances they have attended.
It allows you to search for past and upcoming events, rate shows out of five stars, share your experiences, upload photos and videos and create a personal timeline of your nightlife and live music activity.
Seen Live also includes social and discovery features, allowing people to follow friends and other music fans, browse popular performances and find new artists, DJs and venues through community reviews.
It has been created by Jordan Taylor, the founder of club culture platform Tough Luck, and he has said (via Mixmag): “I built Seen Live because I realised that I couldn’t remember half of the artists and DJs I’d seen live after a while, and all the photos and videos from those nights were buried somewhere in my camera roll with no context.”
“I wanted one place to look back on everything, a proper archive of every show I’d ever been to,” he added.
Taylor went on to say that the platform would give users somewhere to “share their experiences of nights out”, with the hope that they could “discover new artists through each other’s reviews and find their next favourite DJ from someone who was actually in the room”.

Seen Live is currently available through Apple’s App Store for iPhone and iPad here, although an Android edition is not currently available.
Letterboxd is a film-based social platform that allows users to log, review and rate the movies they watch, create lists and follow other viewers. Last year, it also launched its own in-app film rental service. Charli XCX and Paul McCartney are among the high-profile Letterboxd users.
Spotify, meanwhile, has introduced the option for users to follow their favourite music venues, with its Live Events feed updated daily to include shows at more than 20,000 venues around the world.
