When I tend to be bored or when I simply feel that my ipod is lonely and is in need of some good, toe-tapping music, I browse the web for hours on end in order to find sites with brill music recommendations. Thing is, most of the time, I don't end up finding much and I tend to slam my laptop shut in frustration, with no music, no nothing. So, I decided to mention hereeee three sites which when I found, I fell absolutely in love with them. They are well-worth looking at, and I'm sure you will discover some true
jems. Take a look, or should I say, a listen.
Don't let the words metal fool you; this site has a whole section which features various playlists combined with rising indie and folk bands and singers, along with some electronica and funky techno beats too. Most of the artists which are featured in these brilliant playlists are not always well-known, but through this site I have managed to find out about some great tunes. Check it outtt
(3) Burberry Acoustic:
http://us.burberry.com/store/content/experience/acoustic/index.jsp
The site showcases a wide variety of Birtish bands, in lovely locations, usually in places where the bands themselves have originated or where they have spent their childhood years. A very relaxed
"atmosphere" with good music and sweet charm,
which alone from letting you discover some new and aspiring
artists, it will also demonstrate the unique
British feeling that the bands have incorporated. Give it a go.
Let me know what you think :)
