What is netaudio ? Basically free music for everyone to download. As far as I know, most of the releases are from the broad field of electronic music. By the first time I came across a netlabel webpage, I thought they were giving away the music for free and selling records/CDs, but the fact is, netlabel don't want to sell anything.
After I while I found (also by accident) Phlow.net, a webpage greatly dedicated to netaudio, often featuring interviews with some of the "big guys" from the netaudio scene.
In Germany netaudio/netlabels are getting more and more popular. There was a feature at "Bayrischer Rundfunk", I heard there will be a second one on another radiostation and there was also a big feature in the magazine de:bug. The whole feature should become online in december.
Hi Swen. I really enjoy your weblog and I was really interested to see your entry on netaudio.
I'm glad you've started getting into the netaudio scene. There is so much to explore that it can be very overwhelming. I have some suggestions for site that you might be interested in in addition to the ones you have already cited in your posting.
Squares Cubed :: www.squarescubed.com is the homepage for my netaudio only radio show. I have the latest two shows archived on the main page and another page full of archived shows. All are free to download/stream in mp3 format.
Zero Transmission :: zerotrans.blogspot.com is a related side project of mine. Its an mp3blog that only features free/legally downloadable music. Most of the content is from netlabels but not all of it.
I hope you can take a few moments to check these two sites out because I believe they will be of interest to you and your readers.
London’s first festival dedicated to free Internet music hosts a divers education and exchange programme. It informs about emerging Internet and Music software technologies as well it explores their cultural impact in Music production and consumption.
