I recently posted a number of music recommendation sites for filling your new MP3 player – but over the last few weeks I’ve been using Spotify more and more to listen to tunes whilst at my PC. If you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend it – for free (with ads) or a reasonable subscription you get to access as much music as you can possibly want, and also find and listen to new music.
I’ve been using it to build playlists and listen to new albums. From now on, all of the music links on mattrutherford.com will be to Spotify, so if you have any account – you can easily listen to a recommendation and if you like, can buy the album – there is no affiliate programme, so I’m not gaining from the process (apart from sharing great tunes).
I’ve also bee trying out some music recommendation sites that work with Spotify – and this is one of the best – it links your last.fm ID and checks for new music by people in your top 50 lists. Awesome for finding new material, it can also find Spotify links from your recommendations.
PS – Its legal, and you can use it offline and mobile – so no fears there.
What are you listening to from the clouds?
