Stream your music library anywhere with Subsonic

I’ve stopped carrying my old 80gb iPod classic ever since I got my new phone (HTC Hero on Sprint). Between Pandora, Slacker Radio, podcasts on Google Listen, and the 8gb MicroSD I installed, I was never really hurting for music, so carrying that extra gadget and it’s associated USB cable just seemed like a waste.
Things were great like this, but every so often I’d have a craving for a particular song. I was also annoyed by the roughly 50gb of hard drive space my music took up on my laptop’s hard drive.

MC Frontalot, Nerdcore savant
Jul 11th
MC Frontalot’s latest album Zero Day was released April 6th, but I just now got around to giving it a listen, and it’s definitely a winner. If the MC Frontalot name doesn’t sound famiiar, it’s probably because he’s a leader in a relatively new genre (coined by Frontalot himself in 2000) called “Nerdcore hip-hop. Rapping about everything from D&D to the Commodore 64 to blogs, Frontalot’s ryhmes are clever and unique. Just check out the newest single from Zero Day after the jump!
