The first download was shown on MTV ironically while i was brainstorming ways to find new tracks. The Track? Holy F**k by Latin America (Yes i had to think long and hard about whether to censor that or not)
The song feels like ambient dance music for a fight scene in a Keanu Reeves movie with pulsing electronic flourishes and a energetic drum kit. The song is great for parties and entertaining if only for the pure shock factor of the band's name.
Next i went the easy way for free music and went to the "Free" section on the itunes homepage and got If It's Me by Chris Giannini. The track starts off simple which lets the recording quality acoustic quality shine through. Eventually the song leads into what could be a Modern English cover with beautiful but brief harmonies three quarters of the way through.
Overall i deem today a success! Downloading these tracks helped me find new bands i wouldn't have heard otherwise.
On a side note before i go i was shown a great band by the name of Drapht which can be categorized as Australian rap. Strange as it sounds its by far one of my favourite new groups!
