And its **not the first time** that this same publication has printed **sensational stories based on inaccurate** and unnamed sources.

"The story has no truth to it," the company told [Billboard](http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/news/digital-and-mobile/7370603/soundcloud-says-reports-of-dj-mixes-being-pulled-are?ref=hypebot.com). "At SoundCloud, we're on a mission to create a place where all creativity can live. SoundCloud's creator community, including DJs, is incredibly important to us.
