Fun Stuff > BAND
So where do you get your music?
JimmyJazz:
Internet: There are various music blogs I check every once and a while to download some stuff if the descriptions pique my interest. (My favorite's probably We Fucking Love Music) I also illegally download a lot of albums I hear about in meat life and in instances where an independent artist needs my support/I have cash/I know the money goes directly to them (through websites such as Bandcamp) I'll pay to download their music online. And of course, the Thread Which Shall Not Be Named.
Record Stores: I try and go to a record store and buy at least one album every month. Sometimes it's stuff on vinyl I already own as MP3's, other times it's a new album I try and buy the day the first shipment comes in. My ability to do this is sometimes hampered by time/my funds/people who frequent these shops a lot more than I do who've taken all the good albums.
Ordering Directly from Labels: I do this occasionally and it's super fun and rewarding! So far I've ordered records directly from Merge, Matador, Third Man and In the Red. This usually causes me to go broke.
Other: Sometimes me and my friends burn mixes for one another or trade music by sharing our external hard drives.
