Feature
A Release Radar for YouTube Music
YouTube Music has no simple list of everything new from the artists you follow. Cellar builds one from your subscriptions: fresh releases grouped by week, ready to play in one click.
Free for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows, and Linux. Needs a YouTube Music account.
What it shows
- New singles, EPs and albums from artists you subscribe to on YouTube Music.
- Releases grouped by week, with the release day you would expect: a Friday release reads Friday in every time zone.
- Radio shows, weekly episodes and compilations fold into their own Shows & mixes block, so they do not bury new music.
- Play starts with a single or EP, never a two hour radio episode.
Know when something drops
Cellar checks for new releases in the background every hour and when you come back to the app. When something lands you get a desktop notification (at most once a day), a small dot on the app icon, and the new releases are tagged New until you open the radar. You can switch the notifications off in Settings.
Where to find it
Release Radar has its own row in the sidebar, a card on Home and a tile in your Library, each with the latest covers and a count of new releases. It stays in sync across the computers you use Cellar on.
Questions
Does YouTube Music have a Release Radar like Spotify?
YouTube Music has algorithmic mixes and a general new releases page, but no complete list of what the artists you subscribe to just released. Cellar's Release Radar is built only from your own subscriptions.
Which artists are included?
The artists you subscribe to on YouTube Music. Subscribe to an artist and their next release appears. A release where an artist you follow is only a featured guest may not show up.
Does Release Radar work offline?
It opens from the last copy saved on your computer, with the time it was last updated, and refreshes once you are back online.
Cellar works with a free or Premium YouTube Music account. YouTube Premium perks (including ad-free listening) stay with Google. Cellar is an independent project and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, YouTube or Google.
