I really have to put Erik’s site in the position of honour at the top of this web page, since it features an awesomely large collection of mp3 music site links arranged in an easy to use layout. If you’re looking for free music on the Internet, in a superb selection of eclectic, mainstream and world music genres, this has to be your first port of call. Absolutely!!
Monkeyfilter Audioblog Wiki
Taken from the amazing Tofu Hut site. An absolutely humungous list of mp3 blogs, offering music to stream and download in an awesome selection of genres. Go there. Do yourself a favour. The wiki is only editable by Monkeyfilter members, but it’s still fabulous. Really!
Oddio Overplay
Astonishingly massive music resource which has collated years and years of downloadable and streaming music from fabulous resources all over the world. All free and legal, and with a brilliant new design. Check it out or else!!

Mega Portals Back to top
Soundclick
This relatively unknown portal appears to be adding over 40,000 songs a month to its roster. There’s certainly a goodly selection of free mp3 and WMA tracks available for download and streaming in a wide range of genres. (Update: the site now claims to offer over 1 million free tracks all on its own. Beware the nasty pop up ads though!)
Audiri
Also somewhat unknown portal, not only lots of music but also watch videos. Lots of smaller bands, but some good music
Amazon
Yep Amazon! Few people realise that Amazon has simply a huge selection of free music downloads from all sorts of genres. Some in mp3, some in WMA. Use a disposable email address.
Vitaminic (down)
The Vitaminic Group now hosts over 350,000 tracks from 78,000 artists. Mp3 and WMA files for download and streaming. Includes Peoplesound, IUMA and FranceMP3.
Ampcast
Slick, but rather sluggish artist promotion site with a large selection of tracks in various genres. Mix of mp3, WMA, downloads and streaming as well as artist CD purchase.
MP3
Great grand-daddy of all music sites, with over a quarter of a million artists and 750,000 tracks for stream and download. Soon – as at 20.11.03 – to disappear forever into the CNET stable, to be resurrected as who knows what? (‘Update’ 20 July 04: good news, bad news, good news for music lovers. garageband.com has announced a Recover Your mp3 Account For Free service for mp3 bands. So hopefully many of the lost tracks will be restored to the world sooner rather than later. Bad news? mp3.com has returned as a boring signed artist promotion site. Avoid. Good news? CNet? has added a respectable music section to download.com, where there are lots of free mp3 tracks available. Fair enough guys, but why mess with mp3.com?)
music.download
CNET’s new MP3.COM replacement. Lots of independent artists and a growing handful of record label participants (mostly indie labels).
IUMA
Excellent selection of tracks to stream and download in a huge range of genres, although it is often very slow. Now part of the Vitaminic Group.
Artistopia
Artistopia offers music artists and songwriters a platform to collaborate on musical projects with industry professionals.
Epitonic
Great selection of stuff from all sorts of predominently modern genres. Excellent. Be sure to check out all the similar artist selections and streams.
archive.org – Netlabels
Over 2,500 free EP’s/albums (and more than 15,000 tracks?) from mainly electronica ‘net labels’, all gathered under the one roof courtesy of the Internet Archive. Worth a look indeed!
archive.org – Live Music Archive
More than 15,000 freely downloadable concerts – a user-friendly face put onto the Etree live concert trading download service, with explicit permission from the bands involved, by the wonderful InternetArchive. Easier to use, search and recommend. Warning, some massive sized file downloads (SHN), although some streaming/downloadable mp3 too.
Besonic
20,000 artists and 30,000 songs from 5 countries. Free mp3 tracks for download and streaming. Some interesting Euro bands!
jamendo
Jamendo is a very fast growing Download and community site for creative commons liscensed music (over 80.000 tracks) All music on jamendo.com is free for Download via emule or Bittorrent, you can chose between .OGG or mp3 format.

Purevolume
More than 100,000 songs available for free download (as of Feb 2005). Run by self-proclaimed indie fans to fill the hole left by mp3.com. Nice design, nice selection, nice site all round. [Update July 05: Wow, just taken another look and they’ve really spruced the place up. It’s got some fab features now elegantly arranged on the band page (like next gigs etc). Use it with the Greasemap plug-in for Firefox and you even get a map of where your fave band is based. Excellent! Red.]

Review Sites Back to top
3hive.com
Six different authors scour the web for the best free and legal music and write a brief review. A new band is posted every day. [Update: Nice design, nice selection of songs, blog format. Well worth a look! Red.]
Gigatracks.com
Review site that hand picks each of the songs that are posted and offers them for free download. The idea is to focus on only posting the best music that the reviewers encounter.
Zerophase.net (forever down)
A well designed, independent music site featuring audio reviews (they let you stream/download a high quality track from the album being reviewed while you read) and mp3 downloads from a variety of genres.
warr.org
Wilson and Alroy’s Record Reviews. Don’t let the site’s simple appearance fool you. This site is a wealth of thousands of album reviews encompassing popular music from today back to the 1950s. Wilson & Alroy, a pair of self proclaimed “rock ‘n’ roll super dweebs” go into a huge amount of depth and precision in picking apart some of the best (and worst) albums, and best of all, back up their opinions. An excellent and engrossing site.
godsofmusic.com
A nicely presented and detailed review site. No downloads, just direct links to the artist sites with mp3’s to offer. Nice.
garageband.com
Again focus is on being a peer review site, which makes it more difficult to find tracks to download, as you’re reliant on the views of a community to ‘bubble’ stuff to the surface of the charts. ‘Update:’ OK, on review I’m probably being a little unfair here. There’s certainly a goodly selection of music (100,000 tracks) to stream and download, and the quality is definitely better than random download sites. Well worth a visit! Also see above!
pitchforkmedia.com
Not brilliant. Site mostly full of reviews. Looks good and may be useful to find new stuff, but the downloads are kind of poor and placements are paid ads.
betterPropaganda.com
This is a good indie music review site. They have well-written reviews and interviews with various artists. There is a free mp3 download for just about every band that they profile. Oh, and the music they choose is, IMHO, very good.
75orless.com
New music reviews in 75 words of less. Mostly indie rock but hip hop and electronic are also common.
splendidezine.com
Online music zine for people with a voracious appetite for new music.
ethnotronics.com/Radio1
A high quality selection of the most musical and creative electronic artists from around the globe. A fully skipable 192 kbps mp3 stream, allowing quick access to the music. Updated daily with an rss feed of the “Artist of the Day”.
unsignedbandweb.com
A music community site featuring artists from all genres and nations. Hifi and Lofi streams and downloads from a very large number of genres.
SignHereOnline.net
Music resource provides unsigned artists and independent bands with an opportunity to promote original MP3 music and solicit recording contract offers. [Update: Clearly a new site (basic design and not much material) which offers a subscription service for unsigned bands – one track is free, extra tracks uploaded cost money. Best thing about the service currently is the voting section which gives listeners a chance to say which artists deserve a record contract. Needs much more material. Red]
Killed By A Crescendo
MP3 blog featuring the newest tracks and reviews in a large variety of genres.
Muzikvoice.com
Free Online Music Promotion and reviews for unsigned bands. [Nice clean design! Red.]
Great Songs Free
Some excellent tunes from indie artists for free and legal download. [Be prepared to navigate around a large amount of Google adverts in order to get access to the tunes, but nice selection nevertheless. Red].

Specialist Music Sites Back to top

Online mixes archives from Amon Tobin, Coldcut, Dj Shadow, Dj Spooky, Diplo, Sixtoo and more…
karadar.com
Karadar offers a simply superb selection of all things classical. Downloads, librettos, texts, et al. The only ‘problem’ is that the mp3 download process has been made deliberately complex – including a classical music question gateway – to foil leeching ignoramusii (?). Still brilliant though!
Free List of Mp3s, Reviews, Search Engine
Half a million links in the list to date and adding about 10-15 thousand per day, Some really neat stuff and weird stuff. The best part of the site is the keyword search and the Review pages. Add your site to have it scanned as well.[Update:not sure about this site at all, the search function and overall design are very strange for instance! Ah well. Red]
Agnula Libre Music
A database of Libre Music (works which have been put by their authors under a license which allows free redistribution and usage). Artists, who want their music to be accessible to the widest audience possible, without artificially limiting how and how much their creations spread around, can better publish their music there, instead of on this Wiki page.
The MIT Free Classical Music Site (down)
Short but sweet page of free music primarily taken from concerts of the MIT Chamber Chorus and Concert Choir, but there are other cool classical music links there too. Definitely worth a look.
micromusic.org
Micromusic.net is many things. first we are a music label, though we deal with .mp3’s and hard drive space not vinyl! Micromusic.net is also what the users make it. It is an organic community that can shape their own identity by uploading and downloading, organising parties, bringing their own projects to micromusic.net, making bands with other micromusic.net members, helping with any aspect of the site programming, designing… whatever.

Like the Blues and ‘olde tyme’ stuff? Then you’ll like the Public Domain mp3’s coming out of this small site. Needs much more to make it really sing and dance, but still a nice alternative to all the indie stuff out there.
AsianClassicalMP3.org
Small and select collection of Asian classical music tracks taken from cassette tape recordings. Worth a visit if you’re an enthusiast.

Rapidly becoming the ‘street’ music community of choice. Massive amount of unsigned talent – some very good! – showcased on their own mini-site pages with lots of cool community features, photos, comments etc etc. If it’s too loud, you’re too old!
IntoMusic
This niche site offers music from independent musicians releasing their own material – unlike many large portals, it chooses quality over quantity and has unique english quirkiness with reviews of the artists. It’s a cross between an english music mag and an mp3 site. Nice design and some nice features.
Common Tunes
Billed as a ‘community directory of freely available music’. Eclectic collection of Mp3 tracks ranging from Beethoven to the Beastie boys. Nice design, but since it’s in beta I suspect that it’s very much an early work in progress. One to watch though!

Unsigned artist portal, and part of the Vitaminic Group. Some interesting foreign bands.
playvox.com
65,000 ‘specially formulated’ mp3 tracks which can only be played or downloaded by the site’s advert sponsored Play Vox Studio player. In its favour, the site does offer a fairly decent partnership with artists (50% revenue split on sales and a share of any potential company profits).

fivetrees.com
A sort of UK promo, marketing type site, with a ‘radio’ section which offers free downloads of a small eclectic mix of bands.
parkstudios.net
A sort of artistically correct community of artists. A creative collaboration with music. Small number of downloads and streams.
AllofMP3.com

songfight.org
They post a title, the community writes the song, people download or stream the mp3 tracks and vote for favourites. Quirky, cool and fun. Quality is variable, but better than you might expect.
etree.org
Huge FTP based mailing list for exchanging live concert & show recordings from willing bands. No mp3’s, music is downloaded via the ‘Shorten’ format then has to be converted to WAV before being burned to CD. Includes an extensive wiki with information about how to convert those shorten files and set up the FTP transfers. Slower than downloading mp3’s, but within reason with a broadband connection. Very cool if you’re into jam sessions and other live stuff from artists like Counting Crows, The Allman Brothers and The Tragically Hip.
endino.com
Weed is a truly innovative music file sharing service. Complex to explain but in a nutshell, Weed files are tricked out WMA which can play 3 times then stop unless purchased. But – once bought they can be sold on ad infinitum. And the clever part is that the artist always gets 50% of the sale price, but you get between 10 and 20% each sale. It’s sort of MLM without the naff conferences. Downside? Only 17 artists minor label artists as yet. Might work with major names, but this may be hard uphill work. (‘Update’: Heart have just released their new album using Weed, so it may be gaining traction?)
Weed music downloads
Weed music distributor offering large collection of legal music downloads.
freemidi.org
Excellent collection of thousands of free downloadable MIDI files. Movie and TV themes, Queen, REM…just lots.

If you did not pick up a newsstand copy of the magazine with the CD featuring artists like: The Beastie Boys, David Byrne (radio), Zap Mama, Gilberto Gil and others… Rip, mix, burn. Swap till you drop. Copyrighted for the 21st century. The music cops can’t do a thing – it’s 100 percent legal, licensed by the bands. The CCmixter site shows the results of this initiative.
