Most music streaming services offer some variety of Wikipedia-style write-up on the artist that’s currently playing. Shuffler.fm does one better, switching between music blogs for your chosen genre and streaming tracks from recent posts. In other words, it’s a more music-nerd-y Pandora.
In practice, shuffler.fm sits as a music control bar at the head of each blog page, providing controls to skip back or forward, pause the playback, switch genres, or email, Tweet, or ” Like” a track on Facebook. Like what you’re hearing? The blog post likely centered around the artist, song, or event from which it came is ideal there to your browser tab. You get free music, a respectable vibe from patronizing smaller-scale music blogs, and you don’t even should create a free account to listen.
Shuffler.fm is a free service, and seems to require only a browser with Flash capabilities.
