Part of Twitter's strategy to refocus on specific media products, a Twitter Music app would be launched for iOS devices, according to CNet, allowing users to follow their favourite artists and songs and share recommendations with friends, as well as follow personalised recommendations based on their account.
Numerous third-party streaming services will be partners, but SoundCloud is the first to be implemented.
Twitter posted a list of SoundCloud partners who are involved with the new service, with Deadmau5, Chromeo, Steve Aoki, Madeon and Feed Me among the names.
There were reports in May that Twitter was <a href="http://www.mixmag.net/news/twitter-reportedly-considering-soundcloud">close to buying</a> SoundCloud, although these were unfounded as both companies declined to comment.
