03.19.12 | I don't find new music. I've already heard every album that's ever come out.
They all suck, don't bother. |

03.19.12 | 'i hear new music before it's even released.' guy from beirut had a shirt that said that, made me crack up. i used to go to band label websites to try to find info on new albums but now i just come to sputnik and listen to music based off of the reviews |
jdennis31
03.19.12 | i'm kind of glad that 2012 has been relatively slow for me cause it's given me time to catch up on a lot of good albums |

03.19.12 | My problem isnt finding it, but downloading it. What torrent sites do you guys use because shit like Piratebay, Isohunt, Kickasstorrents, etc dont have the greatest selection of the more underground stuff. And IDK what Im doing with mediafire and filestube. I mean I'll google stuff with mediafire but thats it. |
jdennis31
03.19.12 | no point anymore, mediafire is getting raped. although i was able to download the national - alligator and mountain goats - coroner's gambit yesterday. and i really don't have any ideas as to what torrents to use. there may be a good private music torrent site out there, i'll try to find one since i have a lot of iptorrent invites |
YankeeDudel
03.19.12 | Yea I noticed mediafire is getting bent over lately. Govt has been cracking down hard and its probably going to get worse. Anyone got a better torrent website? IDK how some of you guys download these obscure effin bands. |

03.19.12 | For me, it's either Youtube or Bandcamp.
I'm subscribed to some great dudes on Youtube- Borealforest, KSCIAA, Lightfox77, untitleddesigner, etc... They upload great stuff daily that's almost hard to find information about... especially Borealforest and Untitleddesigner. I have no idea how they find out about the bands they upload though.
Then, I pour through Bandcamp a lot. |
OnlyAnchors
03.19.12 | Bandcamp, pandora, new releases tab, asking for recs, raiding the ratings of users who's taste is similar to mine, blogspots, pitchfork every once in a while, going to shows and watching the local bands, going on record label websites. |
Blackbelt54
03.19.12 | what OnlyAnchors said
but yeah a good portion of new stuff I try is stuff that users that are similar to me like (ie hep kat, bungy, etc) |

03.20.12 | Sputnik is super helpful. Last fm is kinda nice but not really for reall new stuff. Bandcamp is prolly a great way. Plus just spend hours on utub and subscribe to bands channels |
ChuckyTruant
03.20.12 | Also lots of music news dudes on utub which will help a ton |
