Where do you find new music?

I get alot from cruising the used record and CD bins at my neighborhood record store. Often, I buy music that I was unaware of by musicians that have interested me elsewhere. Those I like, I keep. Those I don't like go back to the record store.

I agree that satalite radio is a good source. As usual, my older brother pointed me in the right direction and I resisted. It is just fine for sampling music, and it has actually provoked me to buy more music. As a result, I like my stereo just a bit more than I have in the past. Downside for me is that the signal is occationally lost to god knows what, and it still seems a bit redundant and a tad ho hum. New musicians- and newer ones and more, would probably be best.

I want to second the cdbaby website. I started shopping there about three years ago and have purchased many fusion and standard jazz cds. Their music samples are two minutes long per sampled track and they have a great return policy.

Caution - this site may be bad for your bank account because it can become very enticing.

Since I had stopped listening to all non-NPR radio in late 1999, I want to thank those who mentioned other leads too.

I use www.allmusic.com to search for artists or to read reviews, you can also hear parts of the songs and they provide a link to the vendor.

If you have satelite or digital cable, use the list of commercial free music channels,,,,,thats what I do, not all music is covered but a bunch is
