Anyone out there know music sites?
| Apr 6th, 2009I’m going crazy. I need help.
Last night I logged into a site called www.amiestreet.com. It was recommended as a place to find independent music. It looked good in theory—give them a bunch of artists you like, and the system provides recommendations based on your tastes. I did that, and it gave me…nothing to do with my list, unless Dead Can Dance has a relationship with Pavarotti that I don’t know about. Nothing at all against Luciano, but I’m already all stocked up on opera.
Okay, I have picky but broad tastes. I like early music and classical but I also like heavy metal. I’m not a jazz fan. I love Celtic. Country, in my mind, is best experienced outdoors with beer. However, for writing, I like something a bit dark.
My selections of late have been:
On Thorns I Lay
Dead Can Dance
Lacuna Coil
Nox Arcana
Midnight Syndicate
Qntal
And I’d really like to add something new to the mix. Can anyone recommend some albums and/or a music site that is geared in this direction? I just don’t have time right now for endlessly searching, so I’m begging …

have you tried Pandora Radio (pandora.com)? You put in a song or band that you like and they create a radio station for you that plays music they think you will like, based on the song/artist that you entered.

I’ve not heard of Pandora.com, but I’m sure going to check them out A custom radio station–how cool. Thanks so much!

Ah, drat! Another site that won’t operate outside the States. Not Fair!!
