Asher tried to do this a while ago and it clearly rocked ass, i thought it was a good idea so i'm going to try and revive it.
I want a group of people who can recommend one track a day which hopefully people will listen to and pass judgement on. The idea is just to introduce people to new music.
I'm planning on starting Monday with one track for each day of the week and i'll revolve the days around the people involved.

Well today's song is Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc.

Thankfully didn't have to download it as I already have it. It's a nice song but have to admit I'm not as into as I once was, it gets old after a few listens and De la Soul could have done a lot better. Still so damn funky though. 7/10

Hey Flock:

If there's 21 people, will it just go on a cycle of us recommending a song and then after 21 days it goes back to the start or what?

This idea is great, it's making me excited. I'm already looking forward to the feedback on the day of my song lol, which is quite sad really. Hats off to you for making it work in the way that I never could.

Hopefully not, I want to recommend something as well.

You can still volunteer MJ? If there's 21 available then there's 5 places left.

Heh, think I need to remember to read everything before commenting. If there's space left I'm definately interested.

Yeah well just pick a song and Flock will put you in when he updates it I guess. The 21-rotational basis works for me, I'm happy to keep coming up with new songs to recommend and I have a feeling this thread might carry on for a long while.

New people may have a chance to be included if one of the current list stops coming here, so it's a flaw-proof plan I guess.

Once again Flock, great idea.

Fair enough.

K's Choice - Not an Addict

Straying from what people may expect me to recommend ( well, if they've seen my audioscrobbler before :] ) but I think some people may enjoy it.

I shall listen to Feel Good Inc. on Launch soon.

For anyone who can't find my recommended song tomorrow, add me to soulseek and you can get it off me there.

I found it on Limewire pretty easily. I got it today seeing I already have the Gorillaz song. I figure it's quite long so I'll have heard it enough times to cast an opinion by tomorrow.
