Quite often it is hard to nail exactly what genre to label a song with.
I have been known to change the genre of some of mine after posting them to see if they fair better in another genre they have a smell of in them.
I have had judge comments come back saying "Nice song, but not country/blu4es/jazz/whatever when I have entered them in competitions.
All in the ear of the beholder I guess Harry.
Toward your first statement though Harry. I am sure you musthave heard some good stuff in there as well as the not so good, and wonder why you mention one without the other.
For the more than two years I ran Roar Radio, I collected nearly all the songs I used on the show from Soundclick and SongRamp, and had little trouble in finding some very good material.
Suggest you decide what genre you like. Go to the charts for that and am sure you will find stuff you like.
Doesn't take long to work out which artists sing ihn the style you class as what you are looking for.
I'm not a big country fan but do enjoy The few country ones Bob Young does. Round And Round and Last Farewell Tour are my favourites of his in ye haw mode.
Blake Hill and Texas Songslingers, Chris Dasch, Chuck Crowe, Mo Cauffey, and Piper Kirk are all well worth checking out Harry.
It takes time to find them but they are there.
Soundclick is popular. Am told it is the most used sound forum in the world actually.
