Starting out small

I'm very happy to welcome you to this new blog of mine.
My name is Markus and I'm one of the happy few that received an invitation to Spotify. This blog is meant to share with you my experiences using the new cool Spotify software.

I want to tell you right away that i don't have any invites to share, nor do i have any connections to get invitation - you'll have to fix that yourself ;-)

That said here's a little background.

I received an invitation from my favorite Hotel-chain "Elite". They gave away 1000 invites for free to their "Black members" (highest level) and I took the chance to test it right away.
After downloading the software I'm just amazed on how easy the tool is to use and how much music you can find.
For example i tried finding a record from a small local band in Sweden that was released back in -97 and it was actually there! Now I'm completely stuck! This software is incredibly cool!
Of course you have the commercials, but compared to usual commercial radio this really is nothing, and on top of that you get to choose what to lisen to for yourself.

An example of the amazing and interesting music you can find on Spotify is the "Bluegrass tribute to Metallica", meaning One, Nothing else matters and other hits turned into Banjo-orgasmic bluegrass tunes :)
The link to the album is: http://open.spotify.com/album/4KTLo7X6gxgVLscr8VASGW

Enjoy!
