The Hype Machine
So there is this site called hypem.com that a lot of people apparently don't know about. For all you music enthusiasts out there, this one is for you! To put it simply, this is a site which gathers music information and song postings from various music blogs across the interwebs and displays the songs on their site for people to vote on. The site is constantly being updated with posts and conveniently gives you top 100 lists for you to be able to see which songs are most popular at that moment in time. Luckily these songs are hardly ever mainstream and will most likely introduce you to a cool new band you've never heard of. I don't want to say they only post indie up, but it's how I learned about Sigur Ros, Grizzly Bear, and a lot of other low-key bands while in high school. You can "heart" any song that catches your eye and the dashboard will save it for later hearing. Most of the songs I find are usually remixes or mash-ups but with the constant updates this site gets there is always something fun and new for all you music heads out there, so enjoy! :)
P.S. One of the Radiohead songs I would have never come across had it not been for this site!
