Get Forked.

Pitchforked.com. Plays a random sampling of Best New Music from Pitchfork. Simple as that.
Created by internet madman genius Zach Klein, it's kind of like a Hype Machine of the music that was actually most popular - first few clicks fed me Antlers, Vampire Weekend and Dirty Projectors. Only downside is that there's no "skip track" option, meaning I have to listen to songs like "Stillness Is The Move" and Yacht's "The Afterlife" for the zillionth time. But, considering it's practically the Showtime Rotisserie of listening to streaming indie tunes, I'll take it.

Thanks for the link! I'm the developer of Pitchforked. I'm looking into adding track skipping but it's a touchy subject due to licensing issues. If anyone has any other feedback / comments feel free to send them to me or post them here:
