With all the skeevy mp3 blog sites (mostly illegal) out there its a rarity to come across great sites like Pandora and Daytrotter. It's also a delicacy to listen to free recordings that dont sound like they were recorded on a yak bak. Daytrotter was inspired by John Peel and is the baby of Sean Moeller and Patrick Stolley. They launched the site to exhibit live recodings of popular indie bands without the sacrifice of recording quality and $.99 out of your wallet. They feature popular indie bands such as Of Montreal and the French Kicks.
from source: Daytrotter’s recordings are known for their warm, fluid sound, the result of the studio’s candy shop of vintage gear, including a Rhodes piano, a Lowrey tube organ, and a dozen Spectra Sonic preamps. “We record straight to quarter-inch tape,” Moeller says. “There are no overdubs. No ProTools. What you hear on the site is exactly what happened that day.”
