Open your ears to Jamendo


At jamendo, artists distribute their music under the Creative Commons license.

This means that we the general public can download, discover and share albums and tracks freely. We can rate and review Albums and where we particularly like an Artist we can support the individual or group by making a donation.

jamendo is based in Belgium, the majority of the available music is from French Artists, but do not let this dissuade you as there is a good selection of genre available and the site appears to be increasing in popularity!
I have only become a member of jamendo today although I have been watching the site for a few weeks now, it's a good way to be introduced to new music. The site is currently available in English, French and Spanish.

Thank you for the note on jamendo ...

Just a small correction, jamendo is based in Luxembourg ... I know that's not that far from Belgium ;)

Hope you will find good music on Jamendo.

just a remark, we are based in Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, not in Belgium (not a big mistake ;) )

Merci
