Hey, so i was recently listening to some Citizen Cope (i love him) and i was looking around and found all these remixes or singles that i've never seen before. I torrent all my music so i get them as full CD's. Where can i get these singles? i doubt limewire will have a lot of them, plus limewire sucks. where else can i get remixes and what not, for citizen cope and for future reference for other music?

thanks

A lot of these tracks are released on people's blogs so the first thing I do when I want to find a track is type:

(Song name & Artist) + MP3

in google. If I can't find it in the first couple of hits I try:

?intitle:index.of? mp3 (song name & artist)

Sometimes you'll get really lucky and find somebody has uploaded every song they've ever had onto some random ass webpage. I found a site with 10 000+ miscellaneous songs on it using this.


If I can't find it I finally use frostwire. It's basically a limewire knockoff but it's open source and removes most of the limitations that free limewire has. Some people will recommend bearshare or others but as I already have uTorrent I don't need another bittorrent client too. I've tried half a dozen different gnutella network clients but I always end up coming back to frostwire.

Sometimes songs you'll find on youtube are impossible to find. I then have to resort to

http://www.listentoyoutube.com/

it will rip an MP3 from any youtube video so if you absolutely must have a song and don't mind a slight drop in quality this is the only choice you have.

Hope that helps.

when you get the torrent. it should ask you what parts of the file you want... so uncheck everything but what you want
