Sonic Democracy
Cherrypeel.com is like Digg for Music
Since today is a very important day for US democracy, why not celebrate the idea? America's democracy has been etched in stone (actually papyrus or hemp, I don't really recall right now) for 232 years and has worked out pretty well. The folks over at cherrypeel.com have taken notice of this and have given the power back to the people to decide what good music really is. Head on over and you'll find great music from lesser known artists, which you can vote up or down. Think digg for music, and think before you vote.
