Music websites? Magazines? Word of Mouth? I'm always interested in hearing new music but not always sure where to find it NB Other people are welcome to answer this too B) Why thank you very much I listen to Zane Lowe on radio 1, monday - thursday 7pm-9pm Lamacq Live on radio 1, monday 9pm - 1am Roundtable on radio 6 music, friday 5 - 6pm I actually listen to the above when i'm at work through the BBC listen again feature on the internet. I hate day time radio so i listen to the above shows to while away the hours If you have Sky i would recommend watching Gonzo with Zane Lowe and the NME Chart Show, both on MTV2 I find these to be the good sources of new music. If i do hear i song that i like, i'll then go and download it on Limewire along with a few more songs from the artist to check out if they're any good or just one hit wonders. Hope this helps Now listening to Bang Bang You're Dead by Dirty Pretty Things (Carl Barats new band) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the day when I'm in the car I've started listening to the new XFM station although so far they seem to be playing the tried and trusted stuff rather than anything too innovative. Yeah, I try to watch the NME Chart show (when I remember), it's normally pretty decent. I've used Limewire a few times tho am I right in saying you cant download full albums on there? Just used new version of Soulseek to download Subways album, sounds pretty ace thus far B) I know it's probably not exactly the thread topic but if you uncover any bands/tunes you think the P&B public might like to hear I for one would be happy for you to post it on here with a recommendation! You are doing a fine public service 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
