fnkysknky Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Just been given a link to a site that is part of the Music Genome Project - you enter an artist or song you like and it generates a station based around the same sort of music. I've tried it and it seems pretty good: http://www.pandora.com/ Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyro2000 Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 thats pretty good that. Although it isnt able to find most of the people I like, I have to keep my searches pretty much main stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fnkysknky Posted October 7, 2005 Author Share Posted October 7, 2005 Originally posted by Zinger549 you can do that with yahoo Yahoo works by looking at what you've rated songs and genres. The Music Genome Project is basically a database where music experts look at each song and give each a list of properties e.g. electronica, contains vocal samples etc. These are what are then used to find the music for the station - it means you tend to get a lot of stuff you've never heard of that happens to be a very good match for your taste. It seems great for bringing different/new artists to your attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vidster Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 This website is pretty cool IMO. Just enter a song or artist and the website will create a radio station tailored just for you. Add as many artists as you want and have as many stations as you want. http://www.pandora.com/ Give it a go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToryCynic Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Originally posted by vidster Every song is cached on your HDD Does this mean I could dig around for the whole track and get them for free - annoyingly, clearing TIFs et al doesn't allow me to start again after I've created my 10 stations...
