“We’ve been in contact with the guys at moosify for a while as we’ve always been a fan of what they’ve been building and their mobile-first approach,” [Tastebuds](http://tastebuds.fm/?ref=hypebot.com) co-founder Alex Parish told [TechCrunch](http://techcrunch.com/2014/08/26/money-cant-buy-love/?ref=hypebot.com). “We were looking for opportunities to do something together and we felt like the time was right to join forces and create the largest music dating network, so we can match more people more effectively.”

Founded in 2011, Tastebuds says they are already profitable thanks to a premium Backstage Pass paid offering.
