SoundHound adds voice search to its music discovery app

Thanks to the Houndify platform, the SoundHound app can handle spoken cues after you alert it with the "OK Hound" command. For example, if you wanted to hear something upbeat, you would say "OK Hound, play Major Lazer." Don't worry, you can still ask the app to identify a song being played, sang or hummed -- that original function isn't going away. You can also tell SoundHound to add a track to a playlist on your streaming service of choice or ask it trivia questions. It can let you know where a particular artist was born or the name of their latest single.
