Once a week now... I read the 17 dots post on Tuesday for new stuff. Then probably once a week or two I go through their charts checking for albums I might have missed but others noticed.

Ha! Apparently one day later isn't too quick. I clicked and saw ten bucks. It's on my sfl at Lime. I got one of their old albums - I'm forgetting which one off the top of my head - and I still can't say whether it's music that will stay on the playl…

Doyeq and Slow have been great first listens. Both high quality, thoughtful music that felt original, although not too pioneering. About three out of four netlabel dls get flushed from my system after one pass, but those two are stickeys. Recommende…

I apologize for being BBCode ignorant. This morning I was back to Yo La Tengo's Popular Songs. Amazing for how many years they've been doing their thing that they still kick out great albums. The Kick Your Ass album had individually solid songs, but…

kargatron - Limewire definitley has some stuff emu doesn't, though how much of it is worthwhile I don't know. But as my subscription ends at eMu, I've refused to download anything I could get at Limewire, and most of the albums I've wanted, save som…

I'm still tickled about the Charles Mingus set. Five freaking amazing albums for 12 credits. Plus, the REM concert is perfect for my tastes. The only one I got that I'm still lamenting is the Laurie Anderson. I forgot that I like to listen to her st…

The free downloads is to build capital. If they invest well, they can turn your money upfront into even more money, not only recapturing the loss on the free downloads, but adding overall revenue. It's a risk, but apparently, they're doing well.Ah... My grandfathered plan ending is leading me now to Limewire Store. I plan to comb through emu's catalog to read reviews here, something Limewire absolutely sucks at, but then download over there. 75 a month for twenty bucks is the price jump I …Took the trial update:
Obviously, the negatives are that the selection is far more limited,but once I started digging, I found more than ample selection of quality music. First off, they do have some great labels: Soul Note, Clean Feed,…Thanks. I'll check it out in a couple months. I've been thinking of maximizing free downloads: Fifty from Limewire, a free month from eMu if I quit there, then I quit again and wait a couple months to get the disloyalty credits, and then get the 100…Lala has been a great addition. They had the recent three-dollar blue note sale and I got the best bang for my buck download ever there: the Rarum 12 CD box Set for fifteen dollars. But the ability to stream albums once before DLing has saved me a l…I'm geeked for their new one; anybody know if it will be on eMu? The combination of electronics, jazz elements, and chill voices with crashing emotions should appeal to Bjork fans. My favorite thing with Parades and Tripper is that both are lifer al…One of the few Sony dls that surprised me, and this isn't his Don't Worry crap: Bobby McFerrin's Circle Songs. Yesterday I was really into EST as well, same album as above.What could it be beside a few downloads? This is turning into a marketing trick to keep people aboard for that one more month...
If you ask me.
Which nobody did.Love/hate relationship with me. I enjoy the spacious, careful music, but the voice on the first track makes me want to hurl. Still getting into the album overall.Bump. I enjoyed Koji and Kris Cadwell enough to want to back into the catalogue. Thanks.You know, if it was just being incompetent, then the site seemingly should have been fixed. What if eMu and Warner actually had a deal to let this stuff slide to get heavy hits and people back as members? What if the reason why some of the box sets …Solid selection of ambient. You're right: it's not stellar, but there's a lot happening within it to merit repeat listens. And it fits the mode of background for morning tea or writing late. Nowadays, I look primarily for music I call Lifers, meanin…Great use of more constrained free jazz and electronica and a keen awareness of quiet/loud interplay. If you dig it, you might also like Efterklang's more alternative rock version.
