I thought this would be a good way to share some more sounds !!!


My choice for today

Remember the KEY is to share not just "save target" as and keep.

Click on Videos and mp3's and there's plenty of musical weirdness to be had.

I generally respond badly to imperatives.
In addition, I don't do bloggery.

While I tend to agree with Rokkr about the use of imperatives, there are some great sites out there that I've learned quite a lot from.

Forced to pick one, or maybe more:

<a href="http://postpunkjunk.com">Post-punk Junk (PPJ)</a> interesting "something old, something new" approach
<a href="http://somethingilearned.blogspot.com">Something I Learned Today</a> more on the punk side, but some great stuff
<a href="http://lostbands.blogspot.com/">Lost Bands of the New Wave Era</a> great for background
<a href="http://www.littlehits.com/">Little Hits</a> a nice mix
and last but not least:
<a href="http://www.nwoutpost.com/song_of_the_week.html">New Wave Outpost Song of the Week</a>

Thank you to whoever on this board who recommended Little Hits a long time ago. It's a huge site with new mp3s every week & an extensive archive. Most of it is 80's.
http://www.littlehits.com/

For some foolishness & oddities, try Bubblegum Machine
http://www.bubblegum-machine.com/week1.html
There are 117 weeks to dig through.

Here's an awesome Power Pop site - Punk/Pop/Mod. The quality of the mp3s isn't always great - many of them are taken from scratchy 45's - but a lot of the stuff is impossible to find. There are hundreds of songs to discover!
