Looking for music

 I've been wandering about some music blogs lately. Some of the one's I've visited regularly like the Manchester Morgue have ceased posting due to legal troubles with file share sites. But there are still some out there posting stuff. The public radio station WFMU's blog has a regular feature of various music blogs. Though some of their music tastes aren't my bag, it is interesting to browse a few of them. It was through that site I found Bodega Pop a blog of ultra obscure world music (a lot of the stuff they feature isn't even found on iTunes) and it was on Bodega Pop I found the band Seagulls Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her. A pretty awesome Japanese band (though the lead singer's English is so good you could hardly tell)

The Free Music Archive still remains my go-to place, though I have been checking out their specific curator websites a bit more. The Seattle Public Radio station KEXP has an awesome blog with a song of the day podcast (which is also available through iTunes) in general KEXP has a lot of great music, and a lot more to my tastes than WFMU.
