Lyrics.net – Find The Lyrics To Any Song

  • June 17, 2010

Lyrics.netMany people tend to overlook the importance that lyrics actually have in music, and I think that is the consequence of the limited number of individuals who can actually come up with something worthwhile any longer. Just take a look at the talent we had during the ‘60s and ‘70s: Simon & Garfunkel, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Pete Townshend… if I were to enumerate everybody it would take up three full reviews.

There is nothing comparable to that nowadays, and I believe that is the reason lyrics end up playing a secondary role when they should matter as much as the music.

If you have never thought about it, then this site is certainly one you should take a look at. It gathers together thousands of legally licensed song lyrics – both artists new and old are featured, and the site is very easy and comfortable to navigate since there are no annoying pop ups of any kind.

This makes finding the words that go with any song an entirely pleasant experience. And bio information and rankings are provided as well, ensuring that you will get to know the men (and women) behind the artists for sure.

Twones.com – All The Music On The Web In The Same Spot

  • September 28, 2009

Twones.comSocial music has the enormous advantage of giving artists that otherwise would have remained unknown a splendid chance to break through to the other side. It also has the disadvantage that since so much music is available it can turn out to be almost impossible to keep track of absolutely everything.

That is where a site such as this one comes into the picture. In very general terms, it will let you know what is being played on the social web, and what is meriting the most attention there.

Of course, once you have come across a couple of songs that you like it is possible to create a playlist and share it with your friends. And in addition to finding new songs, this service is also meant to be used by the ones who are looking for services that are related to music.

Finally, a Twones gadget is available for bloggers that want to give readers a further chance to interact with their blogs.

Note that Twones is currently available only to those who have an invite code. We have one for you – use the code “killerSU” in order to get in, and see how the site can lead to a better aural experience for yourself.

Ibox.fm – A Site Where Music Goes Truly Social

  • September 18, 2009

Ibox.fmUsing a microblogging platform, Ibox aims to bring users the ultimate musical experience on the World Wide Web. In general terms, it lets anybody search for songs, listen to them online, and also share them with others in a manner which is no more complicated than sending out a tweet – IE, directly and immediately.

As it was only to be expected, you can build up your music collection online and share it with friends. And you can always see what it is they are listening to and pick up new artists that way.

A characteristic touch is that you can create your own radio station easily. In practice, if you and your friends think that listening to Linkin Park is the coolest thing ever you could set up a radio that plays only their songs and indulge yourselves.

The concept of social music is an interesting one for sure. The question that I can’t stop asking myself is not whether or not it will displace physical music (it won’t because fans and collectors thrive on showing their allegiance physically) but rather what will be the single incident that will make the average user (IE, the one who is not a die hard) shift en masse from one to the other. That is, will there be a single incident? If not, it is going to be a gradual process. And a site like this one is an important milestone indeed.

HypeM.comThe hype machine is a service that will let you know all about the music that is being blogged about the most.

Visualization options include the ability to see what has been said in the top blogs only, as well as seeing the artists which are being blogged about the most. In addition to that, a “Zeitgeist” category gathers together the best 50 artists, albums and songs of the year.

Finally, a live radio is included for you to do more than just read what is being blogged the most about, but actually have a dose of what is cool today without having to resort to other sites.

Che Sing The Cool Blog – CheSingTheCool.com

  • August 7, 2009

Che Sing The Cool BlogWhat is the best thing about the many music blogs that you can find online today? The answer is an easy one. They are a truly passionate source of information, kept by people who live and breathe music and who want to let everybody else know which bands touch them and why.

Most of these music blogs also have an irreverent style, which is something that to many encapsulates the concept of youth music ever since Elvis requested they left his blue suede shoes alone. This blog is a fine example of all this. It has thorough information on both mainstream and emerging artists, and all the usual aspects like new releases and future gigs is featured for you to take into account and act in consequence.

There are actually no shortage of blogs like this, but another one does not harm . especially when it is as entertaining and carefully assembled as Che Sing The Cool. Che Sing The Cool Blog

MuzeSpot.com – Putting Your Music On The Map

  • July 23, 2009

MuzeSpot.comMuzeSpot can be termed an innovative way of mixing music with maps. That is, on this website you are able to listen to songs that play in your favorite spots such as cafes, restaurants, shops, gyms or anywhere else.

Besides, you can create your own place using a map, fill it out with different tracks and play them on the spot. The idea is that you can invite your friends and (in the end) everyone will be able to listen to these tracks, and somehow dive into the atmosphere of that particular place no matter where they really are.

The site can be used at no cost, and the interface is very straightforward. It will be hard for you to go wrong if you pay the site a visit, as the only options that are featured include “People Groups” and “Add a new place” along with a input box for locating any place that you want to immerse yourself in sonically.

I have always considered music the most direct language of all, and I also think that out of the many art forms that we can have our pick from it is arguably the most evocative one on offer.

iZaRia.us – Free Music On The Web

  • July 14, 2009

iZaRia.usThe entertainment industry has a tendency to point fingers at the Internet without thinking first whenever the word “piracy” is mentioned. Certainly, the WWW has done a lot of damage to the industry as a whole.

But it has also done a lot of good, and if I were pressed I would say it might even have done more good than evil. Just think of the endless artists that would still be unknown if they were down to “traditional” promotion channels and it is obvious that the whole debate must be put in perspective.

The emergence of solutions like iZaRia showcases the intention of punters to provide a system whereby both parties are kept reasonably happy. What aZaRia does is to let you download and share music on the web, and also find similar artists to the ones you like best. All for free, and without breaking any law.

The songs making up the iZaRia database are retrieved via different APIs, and in addition to listening to your favorite songs you can create playlists that can be shared with other music lovers all over the world. That is, the site is as social as any new endeavor must be to have a chance nowadays. Try it out and see how viable it is as a whole by yourself.

MuzkMesh.com – LastFM & LyricWiki Mashup

  • July 8, 2009

MuzkMesh.comMashups come in all sizes and colors. This one caught my fancy recently, if only because it combines three different services that have blended pretty well together.

They are LastFM, LyricWiki and GoogleMaps.

By glancing at that list you can more or less guess what it does, and chances are you will guess right. You just supply a LastFM username to be provided with a list of the 10 last songs that were played by that person. Upon clicking on each one of the provided song titles the lyrics will be displayed for you to enjoy them, whereas a short band information is likewise provided. Note that Flickr is also part of the mashup, as you can see recent pictures with ease on the right-hand corner of the screen. For its part, GoogleMaps are employed to list forthcoming events.

This mashup offers you a sort of window into any person’s musical tastes. It is a good way to while away some idle hours, and all the information that is provided guarantees you will learn everything about any artist that crops up and whose name you didn’t even know to begin with.

KissTunes.com – Play Songs & Record Them Online

  • June 30, 2009

KissTunes.comI can’t kick the aspiring musician out of me. After having tried a wide assortment of instruments in the past, I still entertain the thought of putting a few more to the task.

It comes as no surprise that I found this website endearing, even if I will be the first to concede that it is nothing groundbreaking.

Essentially, this site will let you play and record tunes using your keyboard and choosing your desired instrument from a provided drop down menu. These include electric and acoustic piano as well as acoustic guitar.

After goofing about for a while (well, OK, after struggling for about 1 hour because my ear is not that good) I managed to come up with ZZ Top’s signature riff. You don’t need to ask the name of the song. It is the one beginning with “La “ and ending with “Grange”. Enough said.

As I admitted in the first paragraph, nothing groundbreaking or defining. But a well-arranged website that provides very good and clean fun for the whole family. Check it out.

MeCanto.com – Listen To Your Music Wherever You Are

  • June 10, 2009

MeCanto.comYou know, as much as I like music I have never been a big fan of listening to it while I am on the move. I never had a walkman, discman or MP3 player.

To me, music is something I enjoy in my room, without any outside distractions. I am fully aware that I am part of a marked minority. Just every single music lover that I know has some sort of device for listening to his favorite tunes elsewhere. Nowadays, mobiles tend to be that device, and the solution under review right now aims to let user listen to their tunes using such devices. That is, MeCanto turns any music collection into a sort of online repository that can be accessed from anywhere – not just using cell phones, but from any desktop or location an Internet connection is available.

I admit a service like this is more than useful.
