Fans of Californian rockers Red Hot Chili Peppers may be interested to know that the band’s new album, set for release on August 30, can now be streamed in its entirety via iTunes.

The 14-track album, titled I’m With You, is available as one continuous stream, so you’ll have to drag the slider back and forth and strike it lucky if you’re looking for a particular track.

This is the Chili Peppers’ tenth album since the band first got together way back in 1983. In that time they’ve sold more than 65 million records. Hits have included Under the Bridge, By the Way and Dani California. The current line-up comprises vocalist Anthony Kiedis, bass player Flea, guitarist Josh Klinghoffer and drummer Chad Smith.

Streaming the entire album is one of a number of promotions lined up by the band to publicize the new release – they’re also putting on a free show in London on September 2.

Of course, if the stream of the new album has you tapping your feet or makes you move your body in ways that it hasn’t moved for some considerable time, you may find yourself wanting to purchase it. So the good news is that I’m With You, which is the band’s first release since 2006’s Stadium Arcadium, is available for pre-order at iTunes for $12.99.

What is spatial audio? The 3D sound experience fully explained

Since Apple added “spatial audio” to the Apple Music streaming service and the AirPods family of wireless earbuds and headphones in 2021, it feels like you can’t read about new audio products or services without running into that term. And just a few short years later, it’s seemingly everywhere.

This has led to a lot of misconceptions about what spatial audio is, how it works, and why you need to hear it for yourself. People often ask, “If Apple created spatial audio, why are other companies claiming they do it, too?” The answer is that Apple didn’t create it, and you certainly don’t need to own its products to experience spatial audio.

If you’re a huge music fan, you’ve probably combed through the many playlists, artists, and albums of your Spotify or Apple Music subscription. But what about all the indie artists of the world? Some music-streaming platforms are better than others at celebrating the
‘unsung gem’ acts, but one of the most reliable forums for new, off-the-grid tunes is SoundCloud.

Founded in 2007, SoundCloud has always prioritized music that’s a bit under the radar. With over 320 million tracks in its library, the platform will even let you download a majority of its songs and albums.

Kid-friendly consumer tech is all the rage these days, so it’s no surprise that there’s an entire market of headphones designed exclusively for young ones. But when we think “kid-friendly,” sometimes we imagine products that are built to be a bit more throwaway than their adult counterparts. That’s not the case with the products on our list of the best headphones for kids, though.

We want our child-tailored headphones to include parental-controlled volume limiters, to ensure our children aren’t harming their eardrums. Pretty much every entry on our list checks this vital box, but we also wanted to point you and yours toward products that offer exceptional noise-canceling, built-in mics for phone and video calls, and long-lasting batteries for schooldays or a long flight.
