Hype Machine: A great way to find songs and publicize songs
March 13th, 2012 • Uncategorized
With all the hype of bills such as SOPA and PIPA the past year, I have really begun to think that the music industry really needs to start adapting. I think the future is going to be with blogs and companies which focus on booking live performances. Artists can become famous on their own and with the internet there is an emergence of a DIY attitude.
I would like to introduce Hypemachine. This website has been around since 2005 and I became a user in 2009. The neat thing about this website is it aggregates the most recent postings from a number of blogs. Through your account you can track your favourite blogs and favourite artists. The songs from these blogs and artists are presented in an easy to use format with a link to the blog posting.
Artists can send their music to these blogs and not only will it be posted on that blog but it will be linked through Hypemachine where they have an opportunity to reach the charts on the Hypemachine website and gain more publicity.
The great thing about this website is you can be the first to find the newest songs! Definitely something worth checking out.
