Plug.DJ -- > Almost Mainstream →

If you’re into music and the internet, you’ve probably heard of Turntable.fm. I liked it, but then I was kicked out because I’m Canadian. Plug.dj is attempting to solve that problem by making an internationally-available service using Soundcloud and YouTube as the music sources.

And now aside from the standard RSS feed for subscribing, you can add Almost...

I rarely, if ever, put a post on here that isn’t music. But I’ve been getting lots of new followers lately (thanks guys!) and I thought I’d point out a few other ways you can subscribe to the music that isn’t through your Tumblr dashboard. In the bottom right-hand corner, there an ex.fm tab. Clicking on that plays all the songs posted. You can shuffle, love, and share...
