Awesome article Hillary! I found this very helpful because I know I often spend hours searching all over the internet and trying to organize all my different music. I also liked the different options to search the “remix” only sections. Thanks for the information, I will definitely be trying this!
Hillary,
Cool to know someone else “in the tangible world” likes the Hype Machine! I am a big fan. Love their tweets, app, podcast, and all things Hypem! …met them at SXSW a few years ago. I think it’s brill’ that they compile music blogs, like a cluster of impassioned music alpha fans in one space. I’ll shut it now, I’m clearly sold on the brand! 🙂
