Free Full Albums and Music on Aol Music?
0 Comments Published by Nick on Friday, November 30, 2007 at 6:07 PM.
As Christmas approaches, I have Rick Springfield wishing me a merry Christmas with his free full album on AOL. Free Albums and music really on AOL Music?
Listen but don't download
The first thing you'll notice is that on Aol's free music, you get to listen, but not download. They have a top ten list, but its like in the store, preview, but if you want it, you gotta buy it. Seems fair right?
Free CD Listening Party?
Aol wants to show us a party with their free cd listening party. You can listen to full free albums for a limited time. Most of the time the cds are new, and from all different genres. Today I was listening to a rap cd and then a soundtrack. Want to listen in? Click here.

Ripping Music from Myspace is a great way to get some free music online. Myspace is a great resource to build up your Mp3 collection for free.
Using http://www.myspacemp3.org/ lets you rip and music that you want directly from Myspace.
The interface is simple, but it was a bit confusing in figuring out what to type for the band ID. It is actually quite simple.I wanted to download a few songs by James Holden.
1. First I found James Holden's profile. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=76802360
2. Now copy the friendID. For James Holden that happens to be 76802360 as seen above.
3. Log into http://www.myspacemp3.org/ and type in 76802360 for the band ID.
4. After clicking "Get Songs"a list of songs will appear. Simple right click, download and enjoy.

Free Albums Galore, Free Mp3 Albums Online
0 Comments Published by Nick on Tuesday, November 27, 2007 at 1:26 PM.
A new free mp3 album each day? Everyday, FreeAlbumsGalore.blogsome.com posts a new Mp3 album release on their website.
One thing I've learned to expect when dealing with free albums is, not to expect anything mainstream. Big artists aren't giving there albums away anytime soon, unless you happen to be Radiohead and can practically give your album for free in the Mp3 format.
What is the music like on FreeAlbumsGalore.blogsome.com?
Funky, strange, and electronic. If you like everything out of the ordinary, then this is a good place to start...

E Music Television, Watch Music Television Online
0 Comments Published by Nick on Monday, November 26, 2007 at 1:40 PM.
Music you control? That is the major claim of E-Music Television. I used to think that MTV offered the best Music videos, but lately it seems they are more focused on their programming than showing music videos. This is the advantage of E Music Television, they strictly show free music television online.
Choose your own videos...
If you are dissappointed with the current programming of E Music television they have links to other music videos of your choice. They don't offer any free mp3's for download, but if you are a fan of music television, E-Musictelvision.com is a good place to start.

iSound, Free Mp3 from Unsigned Artists
0 Comments Published by Nick on Sunday, November 25, 2007 at 2:12 PM.
iSound, they are a great place to host your own music. In fact I've even got my own music hosted at iSound.
As you can tell, if I can have music on this site, that fact alone lets you know that you will everything from artists who definately should never be signed, to music that will make you wonder, why are they still unsigned? In any case all the mp3s on this site are free whether you want to download the music or not.
Are you a striving artist?
Just for signing up and putting a few of my own songs, I've met other aspiring artists and even had some of my music on the iSound charts. Even if you aren't the artist type, I've found a really good conversation starter is to just load up a cd full of unknown artists from iSound. Then when your friends hear it they can ask, so who was that, then you can go into your whole speech about how you are so interesting and you like unsigned artists and so on...

Download.com would you expect to listen to mp3 music online here? Though I have seen better music selections. Currently they claim to have 75,000 free mp3s for immediately download.
With bands like iClash and Shapiro Project you may find yourself lost in their large yet, widely unknown selection of music. Don't fret, they is why they have cleverly adding a rating system to help give you a better idea what you should listen to. Though I have quickly discovered that even with a rating system, it doesn't prevent you from listening to artists who just shouldn't be making music.

Listen to music online, smashitsusa, Full mp3 albums online
0 Comments Published by Nick on Saturday, November 24, 2007 at 1:04 PM.
Though you can't download the music from smashitsusa.com, you can listen to a large variety of music.
Full Albums online
The best feature of Smashitusa is their full streaming albums online. While many sites offer a few sample mp3s, Smashitusa lets you listen to the whole thing. Now don't get get too excited, their album list is lacking to say none the least. It has a majority of older albums than new. Maybe a way to cut costs?
Don't know what to listen to?
One feature I do like on Smashitusa.com is their listening of top songs by year. They list the top songs of the year from 1980 until 2006. If you don't know what you want, this is a good place to start.

Free Mp3 Music from LocaRecords
0 Comments Published by Nick on Thursday, November 22, 2007 at 4:07 PM.
LocaRecords, though I hadn't heard of them, this small record provides free mp3 samples of their music.
Loca's Mission
"LOCA is releasing music under so-called copyleft, a license that enables music writers to develop music collaboratively and equitably and then release it into the commons. The major record labels believe that music is a product to be squeezed of every last vestige of profit. In contrast, LOCA believes that creativity requires that musicians reappropriate and reinterpret music and sounds to enable them to create truly innovative music."
Free Downloads
You won't get full cds rather samples from 5 of their artists.

BetterPropaganda, is that what music is considered these days? If you are a fan of India Music and british rock, you'll like BetterPropaganda.com. Even though though don't offer full albums, their selection of free mp3 music is superb.
The Selection
Most of the music focused on electronic and rock with a small selection of rap and pop. For being free it's great. It lets you explore bands who, even though they aren't well known, produce good music and have signed with small record labels.

kahvi.org Free Electronic Mp3 Music
0 Comments Published by Nick on Tuesday, November 20, 2007 at 2:33 PM.
Kahvi.org's mission statement is "to gather and provide free electronic grooves".
Plenty of free electronic mp3 music
They have to date, 161 pages of electronic music. After listening to their current mix , I would have to say its rather interesting. It sounded more like I was listening to the sound of pipes than actually music.
Thankfully you can stream the music directly of the site before you download it. (This way you don't end up downloading music you don't like.)

The best in Public Domain mp3s to be found on publicdomain4u.com?
That would be a no...
They offer a lot of free mp3's though the genre is completely random. The mp3 are rather interesting to say the least.

Hmm Free Asian Classical Music? Why not. I find it rather soothing to listen to while reading a book. With AsianClassicalmp3.org Asian classical music is free.
A multi Asian selection selection
Ac Asianclassicalmp3.org,"The music on these web pages is all from recordings, most often cassettes, that are either out of print, only available in the country of origin, or both. In most cases, they appear here with the gracious permission of either the artists or the recording companies." Asianclassicalmusic.org covers everything from Burma to Vietnam.

It seems that there are more unsigned artists out there than imaginable. ArtistServer.com serves them up with Mp3 Music categories that range from downtempo electronic to rap. Surprisingly though, the MP3 music on ArtistServer.com is good.
Does being a signed artist make you good?
Though usually a good sign that an artist has talent is the fact that they are signed by a major record label. ArtistServer.com has some pretty impressive artists who probably don't earn a dime for their music. Sad that there are so many great artists giving us free Mp3 Music. Sad for them, good for us. Who doesn't like completely free Mo3 Music?

If you just feel lost on the site and unable to determine what mp3 music is even worth downloading, just check out their top ten list.
The Best Unsigned Artists
Try checking out the favorite artists link. Here you'll find some of the best assigned artists on the net. Sadly, while many of these artists are really good, most of them never will get signed, because there are simply just too many artists and not enough money floating around to hire all of them...

A fan of electronic music and techno? Hybridized.org has more than enough of what you need. They have free techno mixes which is updated daily. All of the techno mixes are completely free and streamed at a high quality mp3 bit rate.

More about the tracks
What you'll be downloading is full mp3 sets. Usually these files are combined into one large mp3, so you'll need to find an mp3 splitter if you want to split the large mp3 mix into individual files.

Yet another French created free mp3 music site like Deezer, the RadioBlogClub offers free mp3 music that you can listen to our download at your disposal.
Share Your Favorite Music on Your Blog
When you select your favorite free mp3 on RadioBlogClub.com, they will give you the code to be able to embed the music on your site. This comes in pretty handy if you want to share your music with the rest of the internet world.
Downsides
Unlike services like Deezer, the quality on most of the music here is subpar. Don't expect anything close to cd quality, but you will be able to get a good radio quality listen to tracks.

Winamp 5.5, Winamp New Version
0 Comments Published by Nick on Saturday, November 17, 2007 at 5:27 PM.
It looks as though Winamp has introduced another update to their already great mp3 player. This version "the anniversary edition" doesn't seem to offer any new serious updates, but it does finally support mp3 album art, something my current version, 5.21, doesn't have.
Why is Winamp so great?
Who knows why we even use winamp, I mean there are plenty of Mp3 players out there, many which don't make much a difference in playing mp3s. Perhaps it's all the easy enhancements like skin changes or could it be it's square design? In any case, my electronic music is always being played on Winamp, Microsoft's Media player just doesn't cut it....

Psychedelic Trance doesn't come cheaper than with Ektoplazm.com. If you are a fan of Psychedelic Trance, then by all means you need to check out this site.
8 pages of music...
That's right they have 8 pages of interesting psychedelic trance music. While the songs they have on here are not from any big labels, they are worth looking into. While most sites give you 30 minutes of samples. This site will you give you the entire album to listen to. Listen here.
High Octane Tribal Trance
Heavy drums and a strong driving groove provide each thematic exploration with considerable energy. Playful melodies and themed samples emphasize the tribal focus of each piece. Listen to the Sound Field - Afro-Dust EP, to see what exactly I'm talking about.

G2P.org is a way of using Google to help you find free mp3s. How legal the free mp3's you find with G2P.org is another question.
How it works
G2P.org simply adds some important search information to help you find mp3s within google. Does it work? Definitely. If you are looking for a single track, unless the song is very obscure, you are likely find it. As for full mp3 albums, that is a different story.

Odea is yet another service offering free mp3 music downloads online, but don't think its quite like the others.
1. The service is free and legal (no hiding from the RIAA for download full free mp3s.
2. They have a lot of interesting stuff. I've discovered free mp3 downloads that I haven't been able to find anywhere with Odeo.
Embed and Download
If you find a track you like you can a)download it or b)embed the track onto your website or blog.
Overall?
Good music and interesting dance mixes makes Odeo great for Mp3 downloads.

Now type "java -jar pandora.jar 8085" (Without Quotes)
A blue screen should show up saying something about "Now were ready to rip Mp3's" something like that.
Now Minimize that and everything else. Open up Firefox and type this exactly: "http://localhost:8085" (Without Quotes)
When done correctly it will take you to Pandoras website along with Pandora hack mixed in.
Now just do normal Searching of your music and it will take 10 - 20 seconds depending on your Net Connection. All Music will be saved in your Pandora folder you made.
*Important*
When your listening to a song and you don't like it and switch to another song make sure that it doesn't say something like "fetching ID3 information and tagging MP3 for artist *** song ***...." Or else everything will crash and you will need to redo everything again. So just wait untill it says "MP3 tagged and saved:
C:\Pandora\Documents and Settings***DesktopMusic\mp3\***\***.mp3"
Guide is thanks to Irieb found on a hak5.org forum

StationRipper.com has the ability to save music thats played on internet Radio, shoutcast for example, and then it saves the song information including the band title, the song, and with the newest released version the cd artwork. The song is then compressed into a high quality Mp3. The quality of the MP3 depends mostly on the quality of the internet station thats being streamed.
*If you want the song information stored and individual tracks to be ripped, make sure to choose a internet station that shows the song titles in its stream. Some stations don't display track titles only the station name. In this case, rip the station and you will end up with one long mp3 file and not individual tracks.
Downsides?
Ripping music from Internet Radio results in getting music the same quality as the station being recorded (of course). Sometimes the ripper catches the song too late after it starts and some of the song ends up missing.

Spiral Frog, Free Mp3s Online
0 Comments Published by Nick on Saturday, November 10, 2007 at 12:18 PM.
There has been plenty of places to download music for completely free, those options are borderline legal.
I'm thinking of such services as emule, limewire, or g2p.org, which let you get music for free, but then you risk the chance of getting found out and going to court as many unfortunate people have.
The Spiral Frog Free Mp3 Service
Spiral Frog.com looks just like that of yahoo's music download service, yet as long as you register for an account, you will be able to download music for free. The music on the site is lacking, but they do have a few newer artists like Rihanna's song Umbrella.
In any case Spiral Frog is worth a look since there is no requirements or payment to signup and listen to what limited music selection they have.

Though I've read not to post a guide about how to rip Music from Deezer, I figured it was necessary, in the hope that people won't abuse the ability to rip music from Deezer. Deezer, a service I wrote an earlier post about, allows you to upload and share your mp3 music. They have already many albums on their site and the list continues to grow.
What happens when you upload your music and your computer crashed? You need to rip it off Deezer (a completely legal reason to use this method to rip Deezer music).
How to Rip Music from Deezer
1. First of all, you need Firefox.
After getting Firefox
1. Install DownloadHelper add-on and restart Firefox.
2. Open ‘Customize Toolbar’ dialog, find the icon for DownloadHelper and drag it onto the toolbar at the top.
3. Right click on the icon -> Preferences -> MediaReq tab -> add ‘php’ as a supported extension.
4. Go to deezer.com, play a song that you want to download, and you should see DownloadHelper’s icon being animated (spinning) now.
5. Click on the down arrow on the icon (not on the icon itself), then click on cacheDiffusion.php and in the Save file dialog, name it to whatever.mp3.
Special things to consider
Note that it is not possible to download more than one song (like all the songs in a playlist) at a time from this site.
When saving music, save it as "Your Filename".mp3. You need the .mp3 extension so that your computer will recognize that it is as a music file.
Tips if it doesn't work
If your download is blank. Try navigating away from the Deezer page and going back to your song, it usually works on the second time you visit the webpage.
Don't Abuse Deezer
Those who abuse this, would be stealing tons and tons of music from a nice website.

Deezer, Listen to free MP3, Deezer Free Albums
0 Comments Published by Nick on Thursday, November 8, 2007 at 5:47 PM.
I just happened to run across this free music service called Deezer. At first I figured, they probably don't offer that much, just a few songs to listen for free, big deal right? After further consideration, I've learned that they offer a whole lot more.
Listen to full Albums Free
Deezer has a good selection of music. After I searched for Moby, I was able to stream the entire album right from the website without signing up. Granted they don't have every album, but the selection is large enough for me not to complain. It was hard finding an artist they don't have a full album for.
Limitations
Though you can listen to entire music albums for free, you can't download anything. As long as you have an internet connection, you won't really need to. Just create a playlist and have easy access to the music whenever you need it.
The only other complaint I have with Deezer is it's player. It seems to skip at after about one minute into the song. It's as if it has trouble loading the entire song.
Getting Started
Visit the website, Deezer.com, and start your search.
