GOLDMINE!
So I've known about Daytrotter for awhile now but only recently delved into their sessions archives.
Let me tell you....goldmine!
What is Daytrotter you ask...
taken from their website:
There are so many music/entertainment websites that copy one another, scrambling so fast to “discover” or present something new to the world. And just because you get there first, it doesn’t really make you an explorer. We did poke a stars and stripes into the moon, but we could always see it. We knew it was there. It wasn’t new. We can always come along and say we did, saw, heard something first, but we’re never right. What Daytrotter is attempting to do is to not kid around with you and tell you that we found something that you never knew existed. We are going to contribute to the musical landscape, not just toss it around like a used book or a stolen pick-up line. We’re going to give you something that you truly have never heard. We are not giving you songs from someone you love’s record album, thereby stealing from someone you love. We’re giving you exclusive, re-worked, alternate versions of old songs and unreleased tracks by some of your favorite bands and by a lot of your next favorite bands.
Some of my favorite sessions are:
Bon Iver
Bonnie "Prince" Billy
Cass McCombs
Sleeping States
Dawes
Dinosaur Jr.
Chairlift
Elvis Perkins
lots and lots of good stuff to be found here!
