Spotify

[Purple Monkey]

Ah herro prease, I thought it'd be a good way to expand our horizons by just sharing Spotify links. We all use this at work and I've discoverred tons of new music just by posting links to each other. There's also loads of comedy on there too which is ace.

The best thing is being able to just copy links and post them anywhere. Just share stuff you think may be cool. Just one or two songs on an album would be enough for a taste I guess.

So I'll start:

Blue Foundation - Eyes On Fire

Blue Foundation - Stuck In A Hard Place

Psychostick - You've Got Mail Enhancement

Psychostick - Girl Directions

Daft Punk Live - Robot Rock/Oh Yeah

Dane Cook - Obama

Remember to support your favourite artists and buy the ones you actually like, hey, why not go to a gig, or buy one of their albums? Remember kids, no one likes cheap freeloading non-contributing knock-off scumbag cockwombles who need to be destroyed in a lot of fire

If you're not going to contribute, or you're going to start gloating about illegal downloads or you're thinking about derailling the thread in some other way, like say via some cliched cantankerous snappy old hippy bullshit, would you kindly not actually do that please, because I'll just have to find some way of hunting you down and murderring you in your sleep. I'm just very aware of that happening in like, well, every f*cking thread that's ever been made.

Happy sharing!!!!

EDIT: Links should now work

Excellent idea

If you haven't discovered Wild Beasts' album "Two Dancers" yet, then I highly recommend checking it out. It sounds very strange on the first couple of listens but has become my favourite album at the moment. I also predict that it will win the Mercury Music Prize next year

Wild Beasts - We Still Got The Taste Dancin' On Our Tongues

Wild Beasts - Two Dancers (i)

Some other random stuff

Animal Collective - Guys Eyes

Amon Tobin - Four Ton Mantis

Cold War Kids - Hang Me Up To Dry

Kraftwerk - Computer Love

M83 - Kim & Jessie

Slowdive - When The Sun Hits

Slowdive - Crazy For You

Spiritualized - Shine A Light (Live at the Royal Albert Hall)

Venetian Snares - Einstein-Rosen Bridge

Link doesnt work...

[LusciousLucy]

Can someone please explain Spotify?

I truly am a techno imbecile and dont have a massive clue about anything musical past 1996 and the heady days of the Premier League of Dance Music! I have a shiny laptop and can attempt this downloading lark, I just dont get it! Doh!

I know I should get into it to help educate myself about all this modern and therefore know a few more acts at the oncoming festival season.

Ive got a few invites if anyone wants one - pm your email address if so and I'll send one over.

[tHomBleached]

Don't suppose anyone's got an invite?

[BlackHole2006]

Found an awesome band today, Catherine Wheel their name is. Right up my street, don't even know how I didn't realise they existed. Check out their album Chrome, Very 90s grunge sound.

Catherine Wheel- Chrome

[tHomBleached]

I'll swap a torrentleech invite for one?

[smog]

Ive got 20 invites so anyone PM me your email address and I'll happily send them out - let me know if they have worked or not as the Spotify invite system is a bit buggy so some dont seem to go through.

I also discovered Groove Shark the other day. Ridiculous amount of free music available through your browser

http://listen.grooveshark.com/

Not sure how legal it is, but wikipedia claims they have licensing deals with record labels

Just resurrecting this thread after the Spotify talk in another thread.

If anyone wants to add me to their spotify friends list, my username is "windy-miller". If you search for "spotify:user:windy-miller" you should find me.

Anyone else want to share their user id? I think this is a great way to share stuff you are listening to.
