I'm gonna give all my secrets away...

Fine, maybe not all of them, but I'll go ahead and blow up my spot on how I always have the freshest music as soon as it leaks.

My personal favorite site for fetching new music is mp3crank.com. They exclusively drop albums, which I've grown to prefer over dealing with accumulating music track by track and hoping you have the mastered version and there aren't tags all over it. They drop mixtapes and ep's too, so it's usually a good first stop for most of everything you'd want.

Another good one is blog.audioloot.com , also mostly albums, but sometimes they have things the first does not. They ad the shit outta their download links, so if you aren't well versed in getting around those, proceed with caution.

Newmusicpop.com puts up everything once it hits itunes, so those are all gonna be m4a, which is useful as long as you don't wanna do anything that itunes cockblocks outta use.

My fave for new hip hop etc is hear-that-first.com, updated almost daily with new tracks, and they warn you when they're dj tagged and so on. Just don't fall in love with any and expect them to be on the album, cuz many are future bsides and buzz singles.

Enjoy, kids. I'll, of course, let you know when something super awesome drops, as soon as I'm done overplaying this Tegan and Sara - Heartthrob album and actually bother to listen to anything else.
