This is my coverage of mp3 blogs. all free new (legal) music flowing around the net. Free advertising for bands with good music :)
Take an active approach in finding music you love. Don’t let Clearchannel or MTV forcefeed you whatever music is “hot” this week. Find what you love and immerse yourself in it. Buy the CD. Go to the show. Meet your favorite artist after their show and give ‘em 20 bucks in exchange for the music you downloaded. Support the artists whose work you adore.
Be passionate about music. It’ll love you back.
This is what the first mp3-blog (link here) I’ve seen says to it’s users. And I totally agree this blogger-based journal filled with music. Some of the tracks I’ve listened to, and a lot of I’ve never even heard of.
aurgasm brings to you an eclectic menagerie of aural pleasures. I scout out music you’ve never heard and deliver only the finest.
Expect music curiously different, yet simply enjoyable.
I want music to move me. I listen to how it sounds and consume how it feels. I want it to groove my soul, wrench my heart, nod my head, or fascinate my brain.
It really makes me sad to see Avril and Britney are collecting the souls of potential users/listeners/buyers of good music. Don’t get me wrong, there’s couple of songs by Britney even I like, and it’s a rare thing, just because pop generally produces look-alikes, clones of clones who worship someone in the teen-magazine covers… plastic.
But hey, it’s a free land ;) Everybody listen to what you like, just remember there is so much more than MTV ;)
