The prerequisites are simple.
You need to have an Android phone with the Soundcloud official app installed on it. If you don’t have the app, don’t worry you can install it from here. Once you have installed the Soundcloud app then use it normally for listening to the songs you like.

Step 3: Once you are done doing this. Open your File Explorer application. Go to the following path: Phone Storage > Android > Data > com.soundcloud.android > Files > Stream > Complete, there will be some files of unknown extension and type.
