Music is a very social phenomenon. I mean we dance to it, share it on our ipods and zunes now, and talk about it. So it was only a matter of time till the proper social web 2.0 sites started popping out of the wood works. For this subject we have two really unique sites which are used completely differently but serve the very same purpose, sharing music and socializing with it.

The first is Hype machine which allows users to search, explore and listen to music legally. It is basically a tracker for the multitude of music blogs out there all mashed into one little hub.

The second is Muxtape. Users can create a mixtape consisting of 12 songs and distribute them to other people who may stumble across them. It’s a cool way to get friends to listen to tracks if you happen to forgot your music player.
