RCRD LBL is an online record label that offers free downloaded MP3s every single day. They team up with other record labels to gain access to songs before they’re even released. How cool is that?!?

UPD:

RCRD LBL doesn't just dish out your regular chart-toppers. They've got a knack for uncovering gems that'll make you feel like a music connoisseur among your friends. Fancy some indie rock, electro-pop, or maybe a slice of hip hop? Well, you're in for a treat. Their selection is so eclectically cool it’ll have you hooked, hitting refresh for their latest finds. And let's not forget, nothing beats that exclusive 'I heard it first' bragging right!

Perhaps the thing I like best about stereogum is that it covers all genres of music. I can get access to an exclusive track to some obscure indie band one day and then hear all about Britney Spears’ new album the next.

The Blogotheque is a French blog that features live performances from some of the greatest indie rock musicians in weird places. One of my favorites is Arcade Fire performing Neon Bible in an elevator.

The idea behind this is that a new band comes in every day of the week and records a live studio session. It then gets posted on the internet as a free download.

Hype Machine does this really cool thing where it searches all of the music people have posted on music blogs then posts them all in one convenient location.

Famous Quotes

To give oneself earnestly to the duties due to men, and, while respecting spiritual beings, to keep aloof from them, may be called wisdom.

Pitchfork is an online magazine that is exclusively devoted to music reviews and previews. If you want to know if an album is worth buying you absolutely have to head over to pitchfork first.

This website focuses on the music, art, books and DVDs that aren’t necessarily mainstream and tend to be on the wish lists of people that are a bit more quirky.

The motto at this blog is “indie bands, live sessions, daily downloads” and that pretty much sums it up. Hearya covers all of those bands you’ve never heard of but will love one day.

These 10 blogs are bookmarked in my Safari, and I check them out every day. Where do you like to go to get the latest dish on music? Which is your favorite music blog? Do tell!
