This site called grooveshark is an online music data base thingy that works kind like you tube does with video. I wonder if we could somehow embed it on the blog so that music picked for the week (for example) would play in some random order when you opened it up. This way, we could have a sound track for our daily shantying. Thoughts??

New Site - RCRD LBL
I don't have much time for this one. It's late and I really should have gone to bed hours ago. But I can't go to bed yet without making sure this makes it's way out into your cyberspace. Check it out.
RCRDLBL.com. Free streams, downloads and other media from some of your favorite artists. The way they put it:
RCRD LBL is a network of online record labels and blogs serving up fresh new music downloads and exclusive content curated by our team of editors and partner labels every day.
You may remember a while back when I was ranting about The Pirate Bay decision and how parties on either end of the conflict are hurting the industry. Well, it seems to me that RCRD LBL may be one of those services in "the middle," where artists and their fans can connect more directly and both can benefit. Of course, I haven't done ANY legwork to back up that claim. All I'll probably do is pay attention to the site over the long haul and see how it develops. In the meantime, I'll be taking advantage of all the cool downloads.
And they've got some goodies, too. Shanty favorites like
There are more. You should check it out.

For your listening pleasure...
This is a site called lost children. They describe themselves as: "The Lost Children net label seeks to distribute music created by artists with humble budgets to all corners of the globe. The cost to the audience is, of course, nothing. Lost Children does not believe that in today's technological world an artist should be unable to deliver his music to a willing listener just because he does not have suffcient label representation. Music is a joy in all of our lives and no one should be deprived of it.The meeting of these two forces resulted in a compilation of artists pushing the instrumental and independent scenes in new and creative ways. A big thanks goes out to all the bands and labels involved in this compilations; everyone's effort is greatly appreciated."
So as it goes, this is a site, which is located on the all too familiar website archive.org. You can go on, stream the albums, and if you like it, can download it, for free ;). There is tons of amazing stuff on here. In addition to albums, they make mix tapes of a bunch of random shit. Here is a link to one that has been standing out on this beautiful sunday afternoon. Enjoy.
