What we offer:

Audiogalaxy is a community of music fans and artists. Fans visit Audiogalaxy to read reviews and sample new music, discover up-and-coming artists and explore new genres and styles. Musicians can post their music, images and info, host a web page, receive feedback from reviewers and fans and get the exposure they'vebeen craving. And the best part is …IT'S ALL FREE!

Audiogalaxy offers 25 MB of free web space to musicians for MP3 files, band images and a web page. All content (music, images and html) is acceptable as long asit is related to your band (exceptions are pirated material and software). Every MP3 you upload to our site will be available for users to download, rate and discuss. We also have daily spotlight features of bands on Audiogalaxy that run on the front page as well as within each genre section. With over 80,000 hits per day, you canbe assured that your band will receive some newfound exposure.

What is included in each Band’s listing?

Each band’s listing is comprised of several elements. The band’s picture is a link to their web page. Clicking on one of the subgenres listed beneath the bands name will produce a list of more bands of that style. Clicking on the song titles will start downloading or streaming the song to your computer. Clicking on the “comments” button allows you to read and leave comments about the band, with the number in parentheses indicating how many comments that particular band has generated. The Review button will take you to the Audiogalaxy review of that band.
