New Musical Express, once the go-to magazine for news about the hottest bands in the UK, is now host to a great website that includes tons of news articles, retrospectives, free album streaming, and free downloadable Mp3s.
NME (as those “in the know” call it) is one of the largest online music magazines these days! And did we mention the free music?
Only trouble is, freebies aren’t grouped together into one single part of the site. So the best way to find the many free tunes is to head over to NME, and type ‘free mp3’ into the search window and marvel at all the posts that pop up.
Just today we found remixes of Roxy Music, 19 free songs from London-based record label Something In Construction, and songs from The Weather and Seven Saturdays.
Although NME is a UK magazine, the music reviews and downloads are not all British bands- indeed the last two bands noted above are from Portland, OR and LA, respectively.
So put NME in your bookmark file, and check in regularly. You are bound to find some great new music (along with keeping up to date on the latest in music news- like Kate Bush doing live shows! )
