Finding new music in the internet.
 

Hmmmm, any recommendations for where to find/stream/be exposed (the good kind of exposure) to (new) music over the internet? Anything? I could tell a story about yr advice some day, you know....

Recipes also welcome.

this board helps a lot actually. i find out about a lot of new music here that i love. it's easy cause once you have one band in common (sonic youth), you'll find bands that are similar or equally good.

http://pandora.com/ is sweet

soulseek

read up on wikipedia
or go through the endless amount of guides & lists on amazon.com

Yeah I've tried Pandora, (listening to it right now, Bardo Pond station,) and I wonder, why don't I like these bands? What the hell do they have in common with the band-station I keyed? Why did I think a Pandora stranger could find music I'd enjoy? (Why do I still believe SY fans can key me on to lovely tunes?) Answers dammit, answers!!

Pandora is disapointing..... in the way wanting Transformers for Christmas and getting Polly-Pocket, well, okay, Bible Story coloring books instead is.

hahahahah

Haha

What if I'm not 7 inch and I'm not punk? (silence). Thanks though, I checked it and it looks good, as long as it's boiled or bleached.

foxforce5, you're goofy

Look at TheDom's post dude

Thanks fr calling me dude and thanks fr telling me to look at 'TheDom's' (accent, Ukrainian) post.

Yeah

I am listening to Pandora now.. i dont mind it.. some of the stuff they have been playing has been pretty good...

Well, there's my radio show for one, which streams live at Noon Pacific Time on Saturdays, and otherwise has tons of streams and downloads archived for your convenience.

I love Dr. Yo! He does regretably play the occasional Offspring song, but otherwise it's an amazing mix of everything from '60s electronic composers to '80s post-punk classics to current stuff that doesn't suck.

Epitonic goes long stretches without updating, but their back catalog of MP3s is still pretty amazing.

if you want to read about music you can do worse than looking at these websites:
dusted magazine
sound projector
perfect sound forever
ecstatic peace
brainwashed
fakejazz

also you can cross reference things like a motherfucker on allmusic.com

I get many good ideas from this boards.

this place is a gateway drug to more music. best place to get music from is other people. ive necer used soulseek or limewire... also google searches are a great tool! blogs etc etc etc..... just take time out to look and you will be rewarded in digiriches......

whatever you do, don't go to pitchforkmedia.com

yes, that's true.
