3. GarageBand

GarageBand covers a wide range of genres and offers a large number of tunes for download. The majority of artists will be unknown to most people, due to the nature of the site, but the review and rating system makes it easy to pinpoint and listen to the most popular tracks.

4.  Live Music Archive

Live music archive contains a  large collection of live recordings from a wide range of artists. Please note that the site runs a policy which does not adhere to any particular set of laws, and states so in its Terms and Conditions, and makes the user responsible for making sure that the content is legal in their own country.

5.Epitonic

Epitonic also has a large number of online radio stations based on several genres and subgenres that are worth a listen. The site is a little confusing at first, but once you work out where the genre and artist lists are, its fairly simple from there

6.  Download.com

I’m pretty sure we are all familiar with Download.com already. The music is generally from unknown and unsigned artists, but the range and quantity of material here is staggering. Currently it’s offering more than 80,000 free MP3s!

7. Freemp3Mail

FreeMp3Mail is a Free legal download system in which the user creates an account by giving the site an email address and a password. It is a great source for free music downloads. The best part about it is that all of the music is 100% legal and yours to keep.

8.  AltSonunds

AltSounds is an  alternative online music community. It gives listeners a place to find the best new music available in an environment that works for them and with them. Like the sites I’ve mentioned above it also offers free legal streaming and downloads.

9.  SoundClick

Soundclick is one of my personal favorite websites. I’ve been using it for a long long time now. Not only you get to download your favorite track but there are so many versions available for most of these songs created by other users. You can even buy or sell music there.

10.  Amazon

img136/6990/amazonka2.jpg

Last but not the least Amazon is one of the biggest websites out there that offers free music downloads for it’s users. The popular one-stop-shop has a small selection of tracks available for download for free. These are changed regularly, but are often by known artists.

Stereofame anyone? It’s a social music game with tons of downloads of up and coming artists who just need some exposure.

Comment by Moin on October 15, 2008 @ 1:35 am

Great list!!

Comment by Bill on October 15, 2008 @ 2:34 am

Yeah, you say people can download their “favorite” songs, but that is only if they happen to know the site to begin with. These legal MP3s are 99.9% unsigned artists – just your neighbor trying to get his/her music out there. Not to say that’s bad, but….just kind of tedious. But hey, if you’re into browsing the artists until you happen to find a track you might like…
Anyway, some sites you might also consider (legal schmegal) are:
Dizzler, and Songza and Musicovery. Downloads are always available – Heck they’re even possible regardless of protection thanks to some wonderful stream recording software….
Have fun!

I love that you have ArtistServer.com listed. I used to work w/ Gideon back when it was only ElectronicScene.com. One great site you overlooked is We7.com, based out of the UK. They’ve got a great website with tons of content. Definitely worth a look!

What about http://www.musichostnetwork.com

Comment by Escoofield on October 15, 2008 @ 3:43 am

Comment by Sebastian on October 15, 2008 @ 5:59 am

I’ve got so much music from http://ccmixter.org a really nice site. You can take all music an mix it, cut it, use it for everything you want. All stuff is under creative commons license :-)

Comment by Papshmir on October 16, 2008 @ 9:06 am

What about

http://www.musichole.blogspot.com

Lots of live concerts and DJ Sets for free …

Comment by i8ababy on October 16, 2008 @ 12:23 pm

How about Ruckus? I never see it mentioned anywhere. It’s free and available to anyone with a .edu email address. So in that sense it is somewhat limited, but seriously, if you can use it, do it. Because the amount of mainstream and even little-known music available is amazing!

http://www.ruckus.com/ruckus/home.do

Try musicalfamilytree.org
All the music is free. To save you the trouble from looking around for good music (of which there is lots), I recommend checking out Sardina, Uvula, United States Three, John Strohm.
Can’t go wrong with any of those artists.

Try moving to Canada downloading anything is legal and mostly free.

Comment by Brian on October 17, 2008 @ 3:02 am

Another good website is the DIY Community at http://www.cllct.com

Comment by Ryan G on October 19, 2008 @ 2:20 pm
