Canadian Freebies: iTunes Single of the Week (July 6 – 12)

Posted by Avigayil on July 7, 2010 at 9:00 AM

Canadian Freebies: iTunes Single of the Week (July 6   12)

iTunes just released their free song of the week: ‘Never Knew Me’ by D-Sisive. It is a Hip-Hop/Rap tune for any fans of that genre. As you might have guessed, you need iTunes to access and download this freebie.

According to iTunes it is certified ‘clean lyrics.’ Also, a note from Wiki on the artist:

D-Sisive is the stage name of Derek Christoff, a Canadian rapper, best known for his Juno Award-nominated EP The Book and his 2009 Polaris Music Prize-nominated album Let the Children Die. That year also saw the release of a free album online, Jonestown. His latest album, Vaudeville, is set to be released June 2010.

It is from this latest album Vaudeville that ‘Never Knew Me’ is from.

Happy listening!

Canadian Freebie: The Sandinista Project Music Download

Posted by Anna on March 9, 2010 at 11:00 PM

I saw this downloadable freebie over on BoingBoing, a blog which I read every day. One of the authors there has a little project, in which they got 36 performers to record one song from The Clash’s Sandinista.

The result is a rather interesting, eclectic album, which you can now download for free. Here are the artists taken from a press release:

Canadian Freebie: The Sandinista Project Music DownloadFeatures The Smithereens, Camper Van Beethoven, Jon Langford & Sally Timms, Amy Rigby, Katrina Leskanich (Waves), Wreckless Eric, Willie Nile, Matthew Ryan, Stew, Sex Clark Five, Sid Griffin & Coal Porters and many more.

I’ve just downloaded it and I’m giving it a listen. It’s a very strange mix!

Ends Sunday 14th March 2010.

Free Music Download: New Smashing Pumpkin

Free Music Download: New Smashing Pumpkin

Get two new Smashing Pumpkin songs free!

All you have to do is click “Download now” to get two new Smashing Pumpkin songs.

Tracks include:

  • Widow wake my mind
  • A song for a son

For any Smashing Pumpkin fans or music fans in general, here are two free songs, no strings attached. Getting music on the mp3 player is becoming much more of a hassle and more expensive. It’s great to have bands appreciate fans enough to give us free songs.

The songs are good, but my favourite Smashing Pumpkin song is still “Today.”

Itunes Canada: Free 7 Song Christmas Sampler!

Decks the hills with brows of folly… ok, so I’m not quite sure of the words on that one, so maybe I need to download this free album from itunes Canada!

They are giving away a full album, loaded with 20 classic Christmas tunes, such as Silent Night, 12 Days of Christmas, Baby It’s Cold Outside… UPDATE: apparently we can only get the 7 song sampler in Canada. Thanks for the comments guys!

From the songs in the list, I don’t know all of them, I know about half of them. Plus, I didn’t know Greensleeves was a Christmas tune!

Itunes Canada: 20 Free Songs!

Itunes Canada: 20 Free Songs!

This is a freebie for those of us Bargainmoosers who use Facebook. If you become a fan of the iTunes Canada group, they will send you a coupon code to claim 20 free songs, in their Fall Sampler!

The 20 free tunes include artists such as Rancid, New Found Glory, Neko Case, Booker T, NASA, Swell Season and more (thanks Beagle). I haven’t heard of many of those artists, apart from Booker T and New Found Glory.

I actually don’t use iTunes so I won’t be claiming this freebie. If you do get it, it would be great to hear your opinions in the comments below.

Happy listening!

Napster Free Trial: Get 30 Days Free Music Downloads!

Posted by Anna on October 21, 2009 at 11:00 PM

Napster Free Trial: Get 30 Days Free Music Downloads!

There’s a Napster coupon code which gets you a free Napster 30 day trial, instead of the regular 7 day evaluation period! That’s more than quadruple the freebie! You can download and listen to as much music as you want in the 30 day period.

Click here for your free 30 day Napster trial

  • Coupon Code: NTGCRECA07
  • Discount: Free 30 day trial

Now, apparently this coupon code only works on Napster.ca, not on any of the other domains. When you click through to Napster.ca, you’ll see a little image on the right hand side which says “Napster cards & promo codes,” and you click the “redeem” button. This automatically starts the Napster download and you can enter the promo code on the first page of registration.

Just a point to note: if you decide not to continue on with the subscription after your 30 day Napster trial is over, you do not get to keep the music.

iTunes Canada: 25 Free Songs!!

Posted by Anna on September 20, 2009 at 11:00 AM

iTunes Canada: 25 Free Songs!!

If you’d like to add some more free songs to your ever growing music collection, you can actually get 25 free tunes courtesy of iTunes Canada and their facebook group.

You should see the banner on their group page, they call this the “back to school sampler” promotion. It’s actually a facebook app called “free on itunes” and you have to allow it access to your facebook profile.

The songs are preset, you don’t get to choose them. There are bands like Great Lake Swimmers, Dragonette, Inward Eye, The Dudes and Thrice.

This kind of Canadian freebie is great in that it introduces you to lots of little bands that you may never have heard of otherwise, and gives you a chance to broaden your audio horizons!

After you get your free songs, you don’t have to keep on being a fan of the facebook group if you don’t want to, just unfan them (or whatever that process is called)!
