Music to my ears

Playlists. Everyone has them.
Each playlist for a different occasion. Maybe a party playlist, played when you want to show off your ballin' dance moves. A sing-a-long playlist, used to impress your mates by showing them you can screech every word of 'Hallelujah' in time with the music, almost. Mostly though, playlists are for relaxing, with a selection of your favourite tunes from a range of different artists, to lie back and listen to.

8tracks is a website that allows members to upload and share thier favourite playlists with their friends, or in fact the world. All range of playlists designed by other users can be found. Any genre, any occasion. Just give one a play and you could find the perfect playlist for you. Any artist can be uploaded, so all sorts of bands could be found in all sorts of playlists - you just have to look.
Unfortunatly, the playlist cannot be downloaded and then listened to away from the computer, but if you find one you love that much, you could just 'buy' the music in the playlist yourself to listen in the car, or beach.

This is one of my favourite playlists on the site. It features music from Regina Spektor, Band of Horses and Temper trap and is a great listen whilst relaxing. You should give it a try.

I'll probably start making my own playlists on the site soon, especially as my Itunes is currently broken, so i'll make another post once that starts happening. Just thought i'd give a heads up about this site, as this can be a great way to find new bands or, if you fancy, make your own playlist to share with others.
