NoiseTrade helps artists build their fan email lists by giving away free music in exchange for email addresses and postal codes.

We get free music and emails from artists that we like.  They have an exhausting collection of all kinds of music from Americana and Folk to Holiday samplers and live tour recordings.  Now they even have music videos on the artist pages.  When I get an itch for new tunes this is the first place I hit up (I also try the library).  I’ve found some great bands here that I’ve gone on to see live or buy albums from.
