Smule makes tons of apps for listening and playing music. Recently a Los Angeles-based indie pop group, called Smallpoolsreleased songs from their new album,LOVETAP!, on Smule's Magic Piano and Sing! Karaoke so that you could jam along with them. Last month, Smallpools released two songs for the apps called “Open Call”, on Sing! Karaoke and "Karaoke" for Magic Piano where you could perform alongside band frontman Sean Scanlon.

“Working with Smule gave us the unique opportunity to interact with our fans on a whole new level,” said Michael Kamerman of Smallpools, in a press release. “It also exposed our music to hundreds of thousands of new listeners and we had a fantastic time watching everyone get down with our Open Call."

The Sing! Karaoke app lets you record yourself singing alone or with friends, add special effects to your voice, and share with people all over the world. Magic Piano shows you how to play your favorite songs, control the rhythm and tempo, and choose from a bunch of different instruments including piano, harpsichord, Funky 80's synth, and organ. You can also use the two apps together to match your awesome piano playing skills with vocals.

You can join the band with Sing! Karaoke and Magic Piano for free on the App Store.

It is always kind of neat when developers find ways to cross streams with their different pieces of software. The most recent update to Magic Piano is a perfect example of that, melding the world of keyboard with another Smule property, Sing! Karaoke.

In their aptly named "Sing! Jams" update, Magic Piano now has the ability to give players the ultimate karaoke experience by providing a voice accompaniment track from actual people playing in Smule's singing counterpart title. So beware fellow songbirds. The tunes you belt out from the comfort of your own iOS device may be shared with a stranger across the globe!

Magic Piano (v7.0) is available as a universal app on the App Store for free.
