Free Music Round Up

Feeling the (credit) crunch? Time for some free music...

It's SXSW time again, and continuing the annual tradition the SXSW website is making a load of MP3s from featured artists available for download. If you don't want to do them all individually, go here for some torrents.

Few artists have embraced the new business models for music offered by the internet better than Kristin Hersh. To prepare for the release of a new album by her band 50footwave she's making available a load of back catalogue to download here. It's some seriously good stuff, and don't forget to get the new 50gootwave album, and her solo and Throwing Muses stuff!

Insound have put together a free sampler with the guys from Noise Pop, featuring the likes of Les Savy Fav and Deerhunter.

And last but by no means least, my favourite of the recent Daytrotter sessions is by a band called Pontiak.
