Free Music From Lost Ocean
Lost Ocean is a new indie-pop-melodic band, comparable to Deas Veil or most of the Credential Records bands. They have two free, download-able songs on their Purevolume page. The first is called “Just Glide” and the other is “You Are”. They are incredible songs. Definitely worth a spin.
New Poll
“What Kinds of Music Do You Listen To?” It’s the new poll I am running, and I want to know just that: What kinds of music do you listen to? Is it Christian music only, or do you listen to all styles of music? Just cross-over artists like Relient K, Flyleaf, P.O.D. and Switchfoot? Or do listen to music at all? Sound off!

Hip-Hop Overdose
Hip-hop fans rejoice! I have hundreds of free Christian rap songs. Seriously, what I’m about to tell you about is the biggest amount of gospel hip-hop I’ve ever seen in one spot before.
The website is SphereOfHipHop.com. They have a unbelievable amount of free music. It’s crazy. It’s awesome. From Applejaxx to YSG-Timothy, they have it all. Due to the amount of music available, I won’t try to name all the artists. They do have awesome tracks from John Reuben, KJ-52, GRITS, the Cross Movement, Verbs, Playdough, and LA Symphony. Really, you need to see it for yourself. I recommend just picking something that looks interesting and downloading away.
Even if you aren’t big on rap, you still may like some of the songs on the list. For example, “Are You Real?” by KJ-52 featuring Kutless is an anthematic rock song which was featured on the X series. Also, John Reuben and Matt Thiessen of Relient K did an awesome, ridiculously catchy song called “Nuisance”. And then there’s LA Symphony’s “Timeless”… I highly recommend all three to everyone.
Another awesome part of the list is the exclusive songs. Even if you own every Christian hip-hop CD ever, you can probably find some new music. Lots of remixes, and instrumentals. Even a few Christmas songs! It’s just awesome.
100th Post: Music from Bleach
Believe it or not, this is my one-hundredth post here. I can’t believe I wrote that much. And that’s a lot of music. From my first post to right now, I would guess that I’ve written about around 400 different, free songs. That’s pretty awesome. Thanks everyone for reading and rocking!
To celebrate, I have a free mp3 download from Bleach. It’s called “Get Up”, and it’s available as a free download over at Bleach’s Purevolume. Bleach was one of the biggest Christian rock acts in their time, and even though they broke up a while back, they still have a place in many, many fans hearts.
Amy Grant Mp3s
You know, I’ve been featuring mostly Christian rock artists lately (Spoken, Eleventyseven, The Afters, etc.), I’ve decided to feature something a little slower. If you don’t like it your mother may.
Anyway, I have two songs today from Amy Grant. I know that there’s a lot of controversy surrounding her, but she’s still a major part of the CCM scene. Evidently, the two mp3 were featured in Amy’s autobiography MOSAIC. I was lucky to find the link for them. The songs are “Sing Your Praise to the Lord” and “Wise Up”. The first is a version of the classic praise song, the second is a Amy Grant original about avoiding temptation.
Free Music From Spoken
I haven’t heard much from Spoken in my life. Nevertheless, this song just rises to the top*. It’s called “Bitter Taste”, and the band is offering it as a free download on their Purevolume. The song is from their CD Last Chance to Breathe, and features special guest Cory from Norma Jean. It’s an awesome song.
*It’s my second favorite Spoken song except for “Falling Further” and “Promise”. The latter also used to be a free mp3 on the band’s Purevolume.
Free Music and Game from The Afters
You may know that the Afters have a new CD coming out called “Never Going Back to OK”. What you may not know is that to celebrate the new CD, they have promised free music “and other great stuff” to everyone who signs up for their mailing list. There’s no word yet what songs will be given away, or when the the songs will be sent out. Definitely something to sign up for.
New Videos!
Yesterday I went out and filmed a web-commercial for this blog. You can actually watch it on Youtube right now. It’s titled Winter, and it features the snow. If you remember back to the 12 Day of Christmas series, when I was without power for 5 days during an ice storm, you’ll understand where I’m coming from with this. By the way, I’d really appreciate any comments/embeds/links/ratings/subscriptions. Now, I give you, Winter:
I also uploaded a video I did a couple of years back, were in a guy is eaten by mutant chickens. It really doesn’t have anything to do with free Christian music downloads, but I thought it was cool. The Mutant Chickens Attack!:
I am hopefully going to be uploading more videos to my Youtube account in the near future, so stay glued.
