try www.pandora.com to create your own radio stations.

you put in the name of a song or an artist you like, and it'll play other songs that 'have the same musical qualities' or somehting like that. totally free, and you can give songs a thumbs-up or thumbs-down if you like em or not! you can have as many stations as you like for different types of music.

you have to register with a US postcode so if like me you're not in the US you'll have to find one (I used the Pentagon's! :lol:

)

it's great....having been a radio 2 fan for years i haven't even listened for a couple of months, as i now always have pandora on at work instead!

Good shout... also check out ninjatune.net/fingerlickin records/Grand Central Records...

As Libby says - Faithless, Live at Alexandra Palace is quality
Ian Brown - especially UNKLES remix of F.E.A.R

You beat me to it Newbie, Ninjatunes having some amazing sets and mixs.

That Pandora sounds quality, i love a bit of radio 2 as well Sal can't beat Steve Wright in the afternoon

Has anyone heard the new AIM album yet? Is it worth getting?

LOL Steve Wright is my least favourite on R2!!! All the other guys on his team are much funnier than he is, he just does my head in! :lol:

So who's your fave on Radio 2 then Sal

umm...i've always been a bit of a Jeremy Vine fan, more the show than the presenter really, I like the whole topical debate thing!

SWEET!!!!

Thanks for all the info! I went to bed without any replies and I wake up to music overload, it's awesome. I have started to check out some of the bands, trying to find them online so I can hear them. Haven't tried Pandora but I will when I am back from work tonight.

Thanks again, and keep more coming!!

Just for the record, I just got 5 Muse albums; I don't know what rock I was curled up under but they are incredible! Especially thanks for all the talk about them on other posts.

You should see Muse live, awsome sounds and a great show !
Roll on June, Muse at Wembley :rock:

Five....? Whats the fifth?

There's four real albums (Showbiz, Origin of symmetry, Absolution, and Black Holes and Revelations) and a bunch of other EP's, live stuff etc. Hullaballoo? Random 1-8?

Its all great stuff.

Seeing them in June, woohoo!!
(Subject to emigrating later than that to Australia, self-destructing girlfriend, or Wembley falling apart before June)

Hullaballoo counts

I saw them in the cavern in exeter in front of about 200 people in about 2000. brilliant

This isn't along that genre, but if you like ska check out Murphy's Kids and Neighborhood Friendly, they're local, check their myspace.

Sorry I just have been listening to them non stop the last couple days.

matt bellamy did a masterclass that my guitar teacher was at and sadly he's got a bit up his arse of late. my guitar teacher was gutted as matt was his hero

Not sure you can be up your own arse when you're that good - thats not arrogance, thats 'accurate' :wink:

dont get me wrong, the bloke is great. one of my own idols.
i play a lot of his stuff on guitar and as i said before love seeing them live

i think my teacher (another matt) was just disapointed that matt would do a masterclass which they were all really excited about then turn up and not be interested. thats all.

They're the band that everyone talks about at the moment in an attempt to be there before the bandwagon pulls into town. Too late though, they're already here, and its too late to say 'I knew them before they went commercial'.

But being blase about 'your mate's brother's band, are they any good?' is still acceptable :wink:
