Last FM (I'm a subscriber) and Bandcamp for me. Nothing beats the thrill of discovering new music especially when that music is outside your normal comfort zone.

For me it's Spotify, magazines, I subscribe to both Classic Rock and Prog, and friends' recommendations.

I agree about Spotify, what ever algorithm it uses, it makes unexpected links and springs surprises. I also like The Wire music mag.

I listened to some of the blog music. Some of the music is nice enough, not as dark as I thought but a lot of melancholy music with haunting synths. I listen to a lot of music like that and the vast majority of it will simply melt away into nothing.

thanks for listening - do you think i can go darker? lol. i dont use spotify but will defo give it a try and see what it comes up with. i actually read quite a lot of blogs and have come across some really good stuff from there.

when you mean melt away into nothing do you mean chart success etc?
