Free music from independent artists

Just a quick post to mention Jamendo – a site I discovered a couple of days ago offering lots of free music from various independent artists.

So far I’ve downloaded several albums and a handful of EPs, and I’m impressed – some of the music is very nice, very professional, and not only free but also legally so! :)

Oh, and the download speed is ridiculously good – I’ve been pulling down albums at a solid 2.3MB/s (and yes, I do mean megabyte) – can’t argue with that!

It’s another good way to find new music (another way I particularly like is using last.fm‘s recommendations stream, which will stream you a selection of songs that you’re likely to enjoy, based on what it already knows about your musical tastes.

  1. Sites like that can be great for finding new music, but it can be hard to find the good stuff.

    I see they have the option to donate to the artists.
