Description
The Stream feature shows uploads by users we follow, but also their reposts and playlists. Frequently, reposts are just polluting the Stream section when all we want to know is the latest tracks by our favorite artists . It would be great to have a playlist, like The Upload or Soundcloud Weekly, that shows only the uploads for the last week from users we follow. That way we could easily know what are the latest tracks by the artists we like. Such playlist would not suggest tracks based on listening history,

Research direction
Start by separating the requested followed-users uploads playlist from the appended report about GET /users/{id}/tracks, then read the linked SoundCloud API users documentation. Reproduce the supplied curl request to establish the current endpoint behavior. Done should be a clearly specified API capability that includes only recent uploads from followed users and excludes reposts and playlists.
