From Dub to Classic Rock: Six Music Blogs for Satellite Internet Users
<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->
Most computer users can remember a time when slow connections meant waiting a long time for just about everything to arrive on one's screen. Whether it was dozens of minutes for an email attachment or an entire hour just for one song, the days of dial-up meant a slower pathway to the information of the world wide web. For anyone who is still using dial-up, a lot of the biggest leaps forward online have gone largely unnoticed, not for lack of trying. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the world of Music online, where countless avid fans and listeners are able to trade everything from dubiously-legal copied albums to rare live performances and obscure singles. Anyone who loves music and has a satellite internet connection or faster these days can suddenly access an entire underworld devoted not just to each genre, but to a growing number of bands and performers, too.
For those who don't necessarily have the time to dig through the millions of web pages out there that are devoted to facilitating an exchange of music, the music blogs are often the best spot to start. For those who are particular about a specific genre, there are just as many offshoots of country, reggae, rock, and ska to make it possible to only focus on one particular decade, recording studio, or even geographical location. And having the right satellite internet connection means that if the nearest big town and its great record stores happens to be a long drive away, there's still a way to stay in touch and find out what the great new songs are, as well as keeping up to date on old reissues.
For anyone who is new to a faster world wide web, here are six great music blogs to start with. Remember, the big and established ones often are able to post songs without worrying about them being taken down, since they already cleared it with PR people and labels, so don't feel concerned that downloading anything is going to be a problem.
#6 - BeatElectric. For anyone who loves the classic sounds of boogie, house, disco, and funk, there is no better resource out there. Actual DJs take the time to upload their actual vinyl, as well as giving insight into the best club nights happening all over the country. Hilarious photos paired with the the mp3s of the day is part for the course as far as downloads are concerned. Best of all, most songs are in high quality, meaning that digital DJs can try them out, and music listeners can enjoy the sonic difference at home.
#5 - Popdose. Not entirely focused on posting mp3s, this site is still one of the best sources for interesting music news. The ongoing bottom feeders series gives attention to tracks from yesteryear that weren't at the top of the Billboard charts, while White Label Wednesdays make it possible to snag under-appreciated dance floor classics.
#4 - David Byrne's blog. This might not be a place to get music for free, but the frontman of the Talking Heads and one of the most interesting musicians out there definitely knows how to recommend great bands and records to check out. Whether it's obscure Nigerian folk music or the latest fantastic metal band from Providence, Byrne definitely gives it all a chance.
#3 - Aquarium Drunkard. While a lot of satellite internet users might be sick of hearing typical top 40 country on the radio, there are plenty of others who appreciate a chance to check out a Willie Nelson classic from time to time. This blog focuses on Americana, alt-country, and the classics, making it a great place for those looking for some country that's a bit different.
#2 - Mangos and Mandolins. It might not seem normal to pair bluegrass and Brazilian music, but this blog does, and the results are incredible. A great place to find truly undiscovered gems, and a true eye-opener.
#1 - Largehearted Boy - One of the first-round picks of music blogs, this site has been around for awhile, offering up free mp3s and the chance for satellite internet users to read the author's musings. Expect classic songs from the likes of Neil Young and Tom Petty to pop up next to the hot indie band of the moment.

What do you think about Jeffree star(:?
I love his music.
Its so much fun to dance to!
of course he can be a bit like gross in an immature way, if you watch his videos, but I read his blogs on myspace and a lot of what he says is true! he was talking about abuse to women and stuff. He may be a bit bizarre but he can be pretty smart believe it or not. His videos are pretty funny also, but if you hate gays than I'd rather you not answer this question please. Who gave YOU the right to tell THEM wether they can get married or not? And don't say god. I believe that god and jesus love gays as much as they do straight people. Can love be a sin? No.
Oh and what do you think about his new song?
i love him too! true, his lyrics can be really wrong, but thats ok. the new song is amazing
i met him last year at warped tour.
...and i'm guessing that you're a fan of cinema bizarre and tokio hotel too?
