I make it no secret where I find my music. In fact, the main reason I am a DJ and more recently, the reason I am a part of OMFGAtlanta... is to share music. I've linked and kudo'd and shouted numerous times to and about the sites and places where I found a track or an artist. But the truth is that there is one site I usually go to before all others.
rcrdlbl.com"RCRD LBL launched in 2007, as a joint venture between Downtown Music LLC (Gnarls Barkley, Cold War Kids, Santigold), and online media pioneer Peter Rojas (Engadget, Gizmodo, Weblogs, Inc.), and was instantly regarded as a revolutionary force in the distribution of music online." -rcrdlbl.com's about page
RCRD LBL was the first site to post a free download of Kid Cudi's "Day N' Nite" in 2008. I continue to go there first to find tons of new music of every genre. Now, I'm not just talking about bands and artists you've never heard of before. Scissor Sisters just dropped thier newest single "
Invisible Light" on RCRD LBL with a bag of remixes to accompany. And RCRD LBL also featured the Philadelphia rap duo Chiddy Bang's remix of the latest Gorillaz single, "
Stylo". But finding new artists like Holy Ghost, the Brooklyn based DFA records prodigy duo, and their few but high quality releases like "
Say My Name" is my nirvana.
Enough about why I love RCRD LBL. The reason I'm telling you all this is because the lovely folks at RCRD LBL are doing an awesome thing.
