The great thing about smaller bands is that you can often find bands that come from your local area and then go and see them play live. Being able to see a favourite band live more than once a year (or lifetime) without expending huge amounts of money and time is pretty cool. Many music search engines will let you search for bands of a particular genre in a particular area, which makes it all quite easy.

A fairly major contributor torepparttar online music scene isrepparttar 118497 remixer. These people take other tunes and redo them, often in a techno style because one person can do this competently. Chief amongrepparttar 118498 tunes selected to be remixed are those old ditties that used to play throughrepparttar 118499 simplest of sound chips on now aging consoles:repparttar 118500 video game theme songs. People now go and grabrepparttar 118501 main tune line from an old favourite and fill it out, making realrepparttar 118502 work our imaginations used to do for us to turnrepparttar 118503 single tone melodies into orchestral masterpieces. A few good places to start are http://remix.kwed.org and http://remix.overclocked.org as well as a personal favourite band http://machinaesupremacy.com

I hope this has given you something to think about. It's not hard to come across illegal MP3 rips, in fact it's often hard to avoid them, but if you giverepparttar 118504 free music scene a look you may find something completely different and new that will really do it for you. With web hosts already being penalized hugely for illegal content being stored on their servers (having an entire server taken down because of one inconsiderate user is damaging and irritating beyond belief) and moves being made to charge ISPs forrepparttar 118505 content being accessed by their users, it makes more sense than ever to get out there and grab yourself an awesomely original and completely legal music collection.
