My New Favourite Weapon: Daytrotter.com

This site continually blows my mind. Alternate versions and unreleased tracks from some great musicians, recorded and mixed live directly to tape. You can stream or download the tracks for free! I find the reviews to be too long and hard to read (ever heard of paragraphs?) but the music is fantastic, the illustrations are pretty cool and the artist's own description of their songs is both interesting and inspiring.

My favs:
Andy Hull/Manchester Orchestra (as if I needed a SADDER version of their songs)
Cold War Kids (2006, there is also a session in 2009 featuring newer songs off "Loyalty to Loyalty")
Bon Iver

There are heaps of sessions, so find your favourites HERE.
