No Comments Good beats to keep the motivation flowing
Bottom line in case you don’t want to read this whole thing:
Timothy Allan produces some awesome instrumental beats to keep your juices flowing throughout the day.
music.download.com used to be a great place to go try out new music from budding artists. I loved going there to download sample tracks to burn to CD and later to load up on my iPod. Over time, more and more musicians stopped providing downloads and only allowed online streaming of their work.
Alas, eventually that site became iLike.com. There are some cool things about the site, but it just doesn’t fit in to my lifestyle — no more than Pandora or other streaming sites fit in. I have to get music on to my iPod in order to enjoy it. It would be really cool if you could “check out” tracks into iTunes for like 14 days or something, like checking out an electronic resource through Media Mall.
Anyway, Timothy Allan had some downloadables on the old music.download.com. They’ve been on my iPod for some time now, and just the other day it occurred to me he may have more work I could enjoy. Sure enough, I found new stuff in the Apple iTunes store, bought it all, and am quite pleased.
I truly wish sites such as iLike fit in to my lifestyle, but so far I just can’t make the stretch. Downloads. I need downloads, then I’ll buy later if I like your work. Streaming is too limiting for me.
