Do believe the hype
Though the word "hype" has accrued a negative connotation over the years, for a lot of brand-new indie artists it can be a great thing. and while Pandora is a great thing, what UberHype does is something just as vital. It aggregates music from across the blogosphere as people write about it. Not only do you get the song, but you can read the blogpost it comes from, follow the artist, and share your find with your social circle. It's an attractive app and responds quickly to song requests. You'll get the new music you're looking for, and a behind-the-scenes perspective of new acts before they hit big. It's a win for everyone! Check out UberHype today! -- Keoni C.
