A crazy good music website.

I came across this website a few months ago and I must say it is amazing.

http://8tracks.com

8tracks is handcrafted internet radio. It offers a simple way for people to share and discover music through an online mix, a short playlist containing at least 8 tracks.
On 8tracks, people can do two things: listen to a mix, or create a mix. Listeners can search for a mix by artist or genre, stream it in a legal, radio-style manner, and follow others who make compelling mixes. DJs upload MP3s or AACs to craft a playlist, add context with description and art, and publish their mix on 8tracks.com and a personal webpage.
8tracks believes handcrafted music programming trumps algorithms. Think radio in the 1970s, mixtapes in the 1980s, and DJ culture of the 1990s through today. DJs share their talent in taste making, providing exposure for artists. Listeners get a unique blend of word-of-mouth sharing and radio programming — long the trusted means for music discovery — on a global scale.

Check it out. There will be something you are into.

This is a pretty interesting one. All covers. All better than the originals IMO. ;$

Nice find. I usually hang out at Blip.fm but this is an interesting format.

For video game music remixes.
I use OCRemix.
good for video making. Not copyrighted stuff so Youtube can't get all up in your face.
