"A site that gives you a quick indication of what other people are currently listening to and an easy approach to online music blogs."
"The Hype Machine is a great site for finding new music and listening to music from artists you might have heard of but haven't actually heard yet. And since it's coming from the best music blogs, you can find out about new artists much quicker than via traditional methods. You can also find b-sides, rare tracks, and live cuts that you might not find anywhere else."
"It's an awesome place to find music that doesn't suck."
"The Hype Machine is the best way to discover new music as opposed to radio and music television stations. Whereas those two areas are now interested in telling their audience what to listen to, the Hype Machine lets you decide."
"The ultimate means of finding music by independent artists posted in the blogosphere."
"It's like quality radio used to be, with an awesome request line."
"Looking for music on Hype Machine is like walking through a field of mixed berry bushes. They compile all the songs featured on blogs and lay them all out for you to pick through. Sometimes you can stroll through and find something delicious. And if you're looking for a specific song or artist, chances are someone's blogged about them, and it's there. It's awesome."
"It is where the music is born, so if you want a first glimpse, you know where I am."
"A cornucopia of LOVE for the adventurous."
