I'm always trying to find new music to listen to, and sometimes scour random music blogs. Anyone got some recommendations. I'll start with 2:

http://sideonetrackone.com
My favorite music blog, usually posts are up (and coming?) indie acts, but lately they've added a hiphop post every WED. Based out of Austin, TX.

http://www.moteldemoka.com/
This one I just found a couple days ago, but I dig the variety in electronic/jazz/themes/time periods. You never know what you'll get here.

Of course I also visit the big aggregators like elbo.ws and such, but was wondering if anyone has their own favs. Please post what type of music they generally offer!

Chromewaves, Stereogum, Pitchfork, Gorilla vs. Bear, My Old Kentucky Blog

All more indie-oriented blogs, but great sources if you dig that.

indiepassion

my go to source for most of the albums I want. I haven't found a good blog for the more mainstream artist though.

For hip hop (lots of reviews and previews of stuff, from vintage hip hop to current stuff)

Pretty much these. But if you don't like indie or its subgenres, stay away.

Most of the music blogs I go to have Rapidshare links attatched to each post, so I probably shouldn't post them here

However, here's one thats on the level;

http://fiddlefreak.com/ - great resource for folk music from across the world (though it mainly focuses on bluegrass and American mountain music)

One of you guys linked to Asian Dan in a Tron thread and I have become addicted to it.

Any more blogs with similar music? (dj mixes/electronic, etc.)

*Sorry to bump such an ancient thread but I did a search for Music Blog threads and didn't want to make a duplicate.

Damn, thanks. I didn't know The Twelves remixed Two Door Cinema Club until now. Awesome.

I really like Soul Sides.

When it comes to soul and funk (my main reason for existence), Oliver Wang really knows his shit.

It has to be translated but it's a fantastic source for some great electro.

I believe self-promotion is badly regarded around here, but I am running a small music blog myself as a training tool: http://in100words.wordpress.com
It might be of interest to some of you!

I've been reading him since I was a kid. He tends more towards classic rock and punk, with some alternative/indie rock thrown in.

subrock · Mar 18, 2010

this list produces about 300 high quality electro and heavy bass tracks a month.
