I have been recommended several online music related websites I really enjoy by a friend and I thought I would tell anyone interested about them. The first one is pandora, which I think is a little more popular now than when I was told about it. For those of you who don't know what pandora.com is, it is basically a site where you can enter a band and then it will create a station for you for that band. This station will then play a song by the band you entered and then songs by bands that are similar to the band you created the station for. I've found this site very helpful in finding new bands as well as new songs by bands that I already knew of. You can also mark favorite songs and pandora provides links to amazon and itunes where you can buy the songs. It's also a good site to leave up while you're doing homework.
The second site recommended to me is The Hype Machine. This is a site that tracks blogs that have mp3's posted to them. You can then search the site for a particular song or artist and there's a good chance that song or artist will have songs posted on blogs somewhere. The hype machine doesn't allow you to download the songs, but it allows you to stream them. You can follow links to the blogs and sometimes you can download mp3's from those. There are also links on this site to buy the song from itunes,amazon, and emusic. The good thing about this site is you can sometimes find songs to listen to on cd's that have not been released yet.
