OK, this is pretty cool: Pandora.com

Check it out. You create a radio station based on your favorite artists and it keeps feeding you music that’s similar in structure or otherwise. Then you give it a thumps up or down, and it keeps refining its suggestions based on your taste. It’s free, too. I suggest you register, then it keeps your settings.

this is actually pretty cool

I know. I've found some great music through it already.

Bands like U2 and Mute Math it has a hard time finding matches for because these bands have so many influences and song structures. However, I put in Sufjan and Sigur Ros and I've hit gold a number of times with each in terms of similar music that's actually good.

the amount of radiohead songs this thing has is

 

[coemgen]

I know. I was impressed as well.

 

[xaviMF22]

yea they eve have lots of B-Sides..

and wow the have some Ivy

 

[coemgen]

I'm listening to my Radiohead radio giggle: ) right now. It's turning up some cool artists.

 

[coemgen]

OK, I just realized for Mute Math you have to put in Mutemath.

The band has spelled it both ways, hence the confusion.

Just fyi.

 

[xaviMF22]

fuck one of my favorite songs came on

 

[coemgen]

Which one?

 

[xaviMF22]

Which one?

Let Down...

 

[coemgen]

One of my favorites, too. The first time I heard it was on the radio when someone got a hold of the album before it released. I nearly cried it was so beautiful.

I told more people about this website

pretty cool

 

[coemgen]

Yeah. I think it's another gold mine idea, like MySpace.

In fact, I think this is why Al Gore invented the Internet.

 

[MrBrau1]

Urgh. These database things. I actually despise them.

 

[xaviMF22]

I wish they would allow you skip more songs ...

I created a station based on the Radiohead song 'Melatonin' and it's playing this song I've never heard before called 'Keep All Your Windows Tight Tonight' by a band called East River Pipe.

It's pretty beautiful.

 

[coemgen]

Cool. See, that's the amazing thing is it reveals music/aritsts you might never have known otherwise. I found some great stuff creating a Sigur Ros station.
