eMusic fashions itself as the Internet’s corner music store. We take great pride in the discovery, passion, and value of the eMusic experience. Most of[+]
It’s been a while since we’ve done a hip-hop roundup, and the arrival of a few notable titles on the site make today as good[+]
In 1995, Deion Sanders — nicknamed “Prime Time” — was a two-sport star fresh off a 1994 Super Bowl victory with the San Francisco 49ers,[+]
Along with Hyperdub and Tectonic, Tempa rounds out the top triumvirate of genre-defining, classic-dropping dubstep labels. We’ve gotten Tempa releases on eMusic before, but today[+]
I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Until now I thought the only celeb with whom I shared a name was[+]
Late/very important date etc
I finally got to do one!
….Truthfully, as you hear me allude to in this show’s opening moments, I HAD one scheduled and[+]
Daily “I-don’t-know-nearly-enough-about-music-or-life” confession: I’ve spent no time with the music of Willie Nelson. Apart from a dim knowledge of the “classic status” of the album[+]
In a few weeks, eMusic will herald the arrival of a very special record — A Society in Which No Tear is Shed is Inconceivably[+]
So I’ve written about this topic before, but I remain interested in it for pretty obvious 1+1 reasons: rap songs that borrow classical music for[+]
Confession time. While yes, we are clearly the most knowledgable people about everything, sometimes we get some help. Both the Aquarius (especially for doom metal[+]
Hi Everyone:
We're here, and we're reading every word on Facebook and elsewhere. We feel as passionately about eMusic as you do and would not have made this decision if we did not feel strongly that it will be beneficial to everyone involved.
We've given it a lot of thought, and we're confident that we can integrate Sony music in a way that does justice to eMusic – and not just eMusic as a business, but eMusic as those of us who use it every day know and love it.
Obviously, a lot of comments have been about the pricing. The Great Recession of 2009 is not the best time to be doing this. We own up to that. However, we - and our labels - simply cannot sustain some of the lowest cost plans that many of you currently have. The price increase is not just about Sony, it is for all of our labels, including the ones that have left over the years and those we have yet to sign.
We appreciate you, our most loyal customers and we understand that people have naturally reacted strongly to yesterday's news. All that we can ask is that you show some patience, that you see how we go about handling this catalogue. We have a lot to offer real music fans. We have since 1998, we do today, and we will once Sony launches. That will not change.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We will continue to check back.

Hey eMusic Fans,
We just added the Death Row Records hip-hop catalogue. It includes some of the best Death Row releases and gangster rap from the early 90’s. From Dr. Dre’s “The Chronic” to 2Pac’s “All Eyez On Me” you’re sure to be taken back and appreciate what real hip hop was.

Hey eMusic Fans,
Our May eMusic Selects artists have been chosen. This month’s artists are Altair Nouveau — a taste of their sci-fi disco was on the Selected + Collected compilation -- and Julianna Barwick, with dreamy vocal loops, otherworldly sounds, and a previous record beloved by everyone. Both releases are EPs (five tracks for Altair, six for Julianna), and both are fantastic.
