You peoples might be aware of this program already, but I just recently read about it, and checked it out......and I've actually heard some rather decent music from such no-name bands.
What you do is enter an artist, group, or I believe a song.......and it generates other artists/bands that have similar characteristics to the one you typed in. If you click on the appropriate link, it will even tell you exactly why they made that musical choice. It's neat.
So...peoples, check it out. If ya hear anything good.....post who ya used as the target artist/band/etc. and then who the new artist is that you're really diggin.
This might be a neat way to hear some sweet, new music. ENJOY!!!

i wonder if the stats on these things ever have an inexplicable skew in favour of residents in the 90210 zipcode.

You guys are lucky. Try randomly coming up with a famous postal code in ANY other country!!
We actually have to research when we need to do that.

I never knew you had to do that... given that the world revolves around the US
just kidding!

Sometimes it wont let me use 90210 so I use 90213. Why? I have no idea. But it works!
And for Canadian Postal Codes, its all about the A1A 1A1.
