Sweet Freebie: 25 Free MP3 Downloads from eMusic
So, you can download 25 indie tracks (or rap, classical, blues, whatever) from eMusic right now for free. They're doing a 14-day free trial
that lets you keep the music you download, whether you subscribe or not, with no obligation, and no DRM. Nice. You can check out the offer here
.
I recently browsed emusic.com and I picked out a bunch tracks by indie and alternative bands:
- Alkaline Trio
- Arcade Fire
- Badly Drawn Boy
- Beirut
- Belle and Sebastian
- Ben Kweller
- Bloc Party
- Brand New
- Dashboard Confessional
- Elliott Smith
- Jens Lekman
- Modest Mouse
- Of Montreal
- Plain White T's
- Spoon
- Stereolab
- Sufjan Stevens
- The Decemberists
- The Mountain Goats
- The New Pornographers
- The Pixies
- The White Stripes
- Thom Yorke
- Voxtrot
- Yo La Tengo
Some of these are more mainstream indie than others, but whatever -- I'm not ashamed. :) If you do the trial and download some tracks from e music, share your picks with the rest of us in the comments below -- it's fun to know what everyone else is listening to..!

If you dig Beirut & Sufjan, you'll prolly like Midlake too.

Des - Thanks! I'm actually a huge Sufjan fan; I'll have to check Midlake out asap, as well as Beirut, which I'm only just getting into...
