Hi all, Posting my links for all to check out. 1. www.indielectronicaonline.com/This is my own new programmed radio station (going just over a month now). It's Indie and Electronica specializing in under the radar groups (that should be on the radio) and remixes/live versions of groups/songs you do know. It's 24/7 and I'm updating it nearly daily now with a total playlist of 11 hours. I have a DB of ~40,000 songs to pick from. My site itself is just getting off the ground and will be changing a lot in the next few weeks. Just got the BB started and plan a lot more to come. 2. www.rateyourmusic.com/This is a great site I stumbled upon a few months ago. It's a database of albums that are entered, rated, and reviewed by people/users. Great place to find new music as well. I've loaded up a lot of my collection to it as well that you can see here - rateyourmusic.com/~Upright_Man3. www.audioscrobbler.com/Another really cool site. You can use a plug-in to your computer that will load what you play into their database. You can track what you play and it makes lists (you can see what I am listening to for instance at www.audioscrobbler.com/user/IndiElectronica/). If that's not cool enough it also links into www.last.fm/ which will then play the songs that you listen to as a radio station! These sites are great for finding new music as you can click on a favorite group and see other people that like them and then see what else they listen to etc. 4. www.allmusic.comThe definative guide to music/groups. The ratings are a bit suspect sometimes but the amount of information here is great. 5. www.musicplasma.com/Neat site where you can find similar artists 6. www.pitchforkmedia.com/Prety good American site for music reviews etc. That's about it. Hope these helped!  |

Another good site - www.radioblogclub.com/If the song is big/current - you can likely hear it here for FREE. It's only 64kbs but great to check out tracks! |

Playing your station in my office now - very dark and moody stuff like DJ Shadow, Interpol, Murcof and Sparklehorse. Absolutely love it myself - not sure about my colleagues though.. ;D

glad you like it! There's some light indie Pop on there too (Reindeer Section, Fischerspooner, Postal Service, Bloc Party, Killers, Etc) but overall I doubt the average person would like it... To be fair that's not my intention - there are plenty of good commercially friendly stations out there that play the charts (even indie or electronica). I'll play some bands that other stations play, but then I'll play a live or remix version |

I'm re-launching my station this week and want you to check it out. I've added a 128kbs direct stream and all streams are now commercial free (one of the biggest complaints I had before). The re-launch play list has been posted and you can enter to win some free Cd's as well. All located at www.indielectronicaonline.com/Most important - I'd really like any/all feedback you have. As I am just starting out the feedback I have had has really helped. Thanks! |
