Amazon.com is a great source of discovering new music. As a bonus, one can listen to samples as well.
Where do you find new music?
Lately I have been listening to some music shows on my local public radio station.(wdet in metro detroit) There have been more artists and songs that I am interested in that I can barely keep up with my growing list. Lots of stuff I've never heard of. I'm wondering where others make their discoveries.

I have XM radio in may car and on some of their channels, they provide exposure to many artists you would never hear on mainstream radio. Other than that, go fishing on Amazon -- they let you sample 30 to 60 second snippets of several songs from each CD. Find something you like, find out what else people bought who purchased that album, keep fishing, keep sampling. I have found a bunch of great stuff in these ways. Latest finds -- Amos Lee, Amos Lee Trouble, Ray LaMontagne |
You could always try the website set up for Audiogon members called Lugs. http://www.lugsmusicreviews.com Hopefully an update soon with the first of the 2005 reviews. |
