Pandora - Listen Up

Although I was aware of Pandora and the Music Genome Project, up until this morning I had yet to take it for a solid test-run. Why the fuck did I wait so long?!

Here’s the basic gist: 1) Go to Pandora.com 2) Type in the name of an artist you like (I chose Atmosphere) 3) Pandora plays a song by the artist you choose and follows that with songs by other artists you might enjoy, similar to the one you specified. By the way, it’s free and works without any downloads or other technical bullshit. Very easy.

From Pandora..

“With Pandora you can explore this vast trove of music to your heart’s content. Just drop the name of one of your favorite songs or artists into Pandora and let the Genome Project go. It will quickly scan its entire world of analyzed music, almost a century of popular recordings - new and old, well known and completely obscure - to find songs with interesting musical similarities to your choice. Then sit back and enjoy as it creates a listening experience full of current and soon-to-be favorite songs for you.”

All of the music chosen by Pandora has been great, including the song below, Push by Common Market. Click over to Pandora now. You will not be disappointed.
