SAID THE GRAMOPHONE IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE MOST UNIQUE MUSIC BLOG ON THE NET~ CHECK IT OUT














TIME Online has done a piece on the 25 Best Blogs in 2009 and there are quite a few interesting Sites included on their list. Among them is a Music Blog that covers artists that no one has ever heard of and not only are they pushing the envelope in that regard, but they are also breaking these artist's out and they are really amazing bands. Every aspect of the MP3 Blog is unique & clever including the name: Said the Gramophone. As the Beasties would say, Ch-Ch-Ch-Check it out!

A daily sampler of "really good songs" as judged by the three Canadian music fans who compile the site. Launched in March 2003, Said the Gramophone was one of the first mp3 blogs that actually let you download and listen to the music being described. And when it comes to music, hearing is believing. How many times have you bought a CD on the recommendation of a magazine or newspaper review only to find the music sounded nothing like the description? Said the Gramophone solves that problem, although you have to act fast on listening to the music — all songs are removed from the blog within a week or two of posting. The capsule reviews are reliably thoughtful with occasional forays into the surreal, and most songs are accompanied by a link in case you want to buy them immediately. It's a great, low-risk way to get turned on to new music.
