Online resources for discovering and downloading new music appear to be endless. And once you have discovered one that has everything you want, it’s gone. They come and go like the seasons. Some are legal, most are not.
The best way to keep up with the latest single or album releases, tour dates, and the hottest new bands are social music networks.
Here is a website that focuses entirely on what’s hot right now and where to get cool new tunes for free.
Muzic
We tune in and analyze this tidal wave of musical conversation to help you find songs, artists, and music bloggers that you want to know about. We want to help you discover new artists you’ll support in the future.
Sound good? Let’s have a look at how Muzic works.
Browsing for music…
When you’re not logged in the start page shows a tag cloud of “artists happening now”, i.e. artists that have a lot of free stuff out now. You can zoom over to “songs happening now” and “bloggers on our radar” by clicking the small buttons at the bottom of the tag cloud.
Muzic lets you search for artists, songs, or bloggers. But to discover new bands, “popular tags” or “songs by genre” are a better starting point.
The results page is a list of posts that match your query. Posts are created by the bloggers that provide the free MP3 downloads. Each post contains details about the song and a link back to the the site where it was posted originally.
Click on the song name to launch the song’s card, which contains some more information, as well as lists of more songs from the same blog and all songs from that artist below the card.
Downloading mp3s…
Once you found an interesting song, click > Get Song in its bottom left. You will be redirected to the original source. Muzic will stay with you though, as it is minimized to a small bar at the top of the page.
Now you can either download the song from the respective blog or from Muzic’s top navigation bar. If you decide for Muzic, > right-click the green > Download MP3 button and select > Save Link As… from the menu. Now select a destination and you’re ready to save the song.
To return to Muzic, click the << back link in its navigation bar at the top.
In case an artist uploaded a song to Muzic, you can directly download the MP3 from the respective song card. Uploaded songs can also be “previewed”, i.e. listened to in full through the Muzic player, which launches in a separate frame at the bottom of the page.
The community…
When you’re logged in you can add songs to your faves, follow other listeners or artists that have uploaded songs, and update your profile.
In all honesty, the profile features and community aspects are a little underdeveloped. Unless I missed out on something important, there is no real exchange between users. You can see what others added as their faves and follow them, but that’s about it. On the other hand that isn’t too bad. After all, you’re in for the latest free music and not for even more distractions.

I confess that I've gone taken with Bollywood every bit happy, though not to the same extent every bit my niece, who holds a number of Indian films and regularly splits others. The Bollywood best is so great that I have to bound myself to checking those few of its products that bubble up to view the care of American movie readers. Otherwise I imparted be lost in Indian ocean of unacquainted with movie titles, actors and actresses.
My niece besides accumulates CDs of Bollywood medicine. There's an Asian grocery nearly her base that offers a cornucopia of them. Just she has the said problem taking CDs to buy that I do deciding which Bollywood movie English hawthorn be worth my time. Unless she's seen the film from which a soundtrack derives, she's usually in the dark equally to whether a careful CD's strains and artists are ones she will enjoy.
At her invite, I set up a room for her to preview a sort of Bollywood calls and even to live with them on her iPod for a while, all for Available. This right smart she can make educated decisions about which CDs she ultimately purchases.
hot of the Web sites I found offered song samples, meaning 30-second or 1-minute snippets. Some taken full audio streams that allowed the visitor to listen to continuous Bollywood medicine for equally long equally she or he might want. It was these latter that provided the first half of our solution.
Normally, streaming audio, such equally what you hear over an Internet radio station, cannot be saved or downloaded. New software package, though, makes it possible to phonograph recording the stream to your hard drive for replaying equally often as you like.
Even better, some of the newest audio capture software system incorporates something called an mp3 splitter. This computer software is able to break the audio stream into separate mp3 song files. By the room, this is absolutely legal, because you're simply reading a broadcast, the one every bit when you tape a TV show on your VHS. Voila -- we made the second half of our solution.
Between the audio streams and splitter/transcription software package, we created our own primary Bollywood mp3 download sites.
Now whenever my niece is in a temper to research the latest tuneful offerings from Bollywood, she penetrates on her favorite Indian-medicine Internet radio station, then starts the entering software program. Pretty soon she has enough Bollywood mp3s to shuffle over for the rest of the calendar week, and she's almost undertaken to find two or three that will spur her to make a trip to the CD bin down at the Asian storage.
