Help me find more great Chinese music!

September 10, 2008 12:07 AM

I love mp3 blogs (like Motel de Moka and Chromewaves). I also like listening to Chinese music, but find it hard to find new, good songs. Are there any mp3 blogs for Chinese music?

Sites in Chinese are fine, although the less crowded the page, the better (I read too slowly in Chinese to do well otherwise). I tend to like less pop-ish music, although a healthy mix of different styles would be welcome. Any reliable non-mp3-blog sites for finding Chinese songs would be welcome too.

I'd really search for this myself if I was good enough at Chinese. I generally use gougou or baidu if I know what I'm looking for, but I'm more looking for something that would help me explore different artists/songs.

Thanks in advance!

Explore a bit of Baidu's mp3 area. That page links to all sorts of top-of-the-chart lists. The 掌门人 area has a ton of user-created thematic lists.

I would check the podcasts on chaile.

Neocha is underground, not popular music.
