When The Switch Broke ‘Cause It’s Old

With the end of another year comes another slew of music critics’ “best of” lists.

With the end of another year comes another slew of music critics’ “best of” lists. And, of course, another reminder that your tenuous claim to musical coolness is getting more and more implausible. Rather than face the undeniable fact that your Stone Temple Pilots and Naughty By Nature CDs have long since ceased to be “new music”, you shake a tiny, aging fist at “the crap people listen to nowadays.” You retreat into your arid little cocoon, where nobody will have the temerity to remind you that you don’t actually know what people listen to nowadays.

Come, now. You’re better than that. You’re, yes, cooler than that.

We know: the sheer volume of new music is too vast and varied to just leap into unawares. Go grazing the endcaps at Borders, or randomly clicking on banner ads on iTunes, and you’ll probably wind up with more misses than hits. Maybe you’re gun-shy after a horrifying encounter with Nickelback, or you’re still shuddering from your unfortunate run-in with Trans-Siberian Orchestra. We’re old, too. We understand.

So when you get back on the “new music” bike, start with some training wheels. This portable Slacker Radio unit auto-refreshes up to 40 stations, so you can hear new stuff even when you’re not connected. And you can choose those 40 stations from more than 100 options – see and hear for yourself with their free web-based service. Once you get your portable Slacker Radio player, you can listen to Slacker basic radio for free, with only one or two commercials per hour, and skip up to six songs per hour. Or you can pony up $7.50 per month for the premium radio service: no commercials, as many skips as you want, and the ability to save songs directly to the player. As you listen, you can tell it which songs you love and which you hate, so Slacker can serve up more of the cream and less of the crap.

And when you’ve finally immersed yourself in the fascinating new sounds emanating from the music underground today, and confirmed that you hate all that garbage…well, there’s always Slacker Radio’s ”’90s Alternative” channel. We think they’re playing some Alice in Chains right now.
