Something I Like: thesixtyone

Thesixtyone is a great site shown to me by my friend Michael.  Geared toward those always looking to discover new music, this website contains countless artists, and adds a little bit of fun through "quests" and a leveling system. Countless new artists post their song there, so anyone who wants a good way to open up to new bands will love it.  If you join, be sure to put mcmb03 or tannertheblog as the referrer.

Something I Like: WhoSampled

Something I Like today is a nice music website called WhoSampled which breaks down songs into the songs which they sampled, complete with youtube links to both the new and original tunes. Text on its homepage states: "Dig deeper into music by discovering direct links between over 17,000 songs and 7,500 artists, from Hip-Hop, R&B, Funk and Soul via Electronic Music and through to Rock, Pop and beyond." It's really cool to see the ingenious ways in which the producers altered the tracks to create something new, and provides a nice portal for finding new and different music based on the songs you already enjoy.
