Exploring new music and discovering new bands is always fun, but it’s not that fun if you can’t find anything new and fresh to listen to. This is where recommendations from friends and HFN readers come in. We think that Song of The Day can be a way to recommend new music to our fellow headphone enthusiasts and so we made a page for that purpose. I started the #songoftheday on Twitter a few years ago but I just couldn’t find the time to keep doing it. David was always a big fan of this topic and so I have put him in charge now of this page.
If you want to recommend a song of the day you can:
* Post a comment in this topic
* Tweet it to our Twitter account @headfonia and add the hash tag #songoftheday or #SOTD
* email us at Headfonia.song @ gmail.com (without spaces)
If we’ll like it then we’ll add them to the list. I look forward to all the new music!

I am loving this feature of the blog! It’s been challenging for me to find good – sonically stimulating – music these days and I’m loving these tracks. If you can, check out Ellie Goulding.

Thanks, Activebass. Will check out Ellie Goulding.

Now before you expect anything too exotic, I’d better give a brief description: her album, Lights, is a fun listen using good buds or cans. I’d describe her music on this album as a more catchy, faster, danceable version of Bjork’s Post. the production on the album is quite good, so is ear candy. Anyway, enjoy!

And we”re back!

Listen to the ukrainian band Pur:Pur! They’re really great!
Donunus
Im still pretty ignorant when it comes to twitter. I posted a song there. Broken by Voyager from the 2011 album ‘The meaning of I”. I hope it came out. Anyway, I just discovered the 2011 album yesterday and I’m loving the whole album.
Smith
The link to Sway isn’t of Frank Sinatra…
Headfonia_L.
I know right!

Vocals might sound a bit ‘different’ as Urbandub is a Pinoy rock band. Understandable.

Hello, shooting star by Moumoon
Really sweet vocal.
P.S. My favourite genre is J-pop, J-rock and Anisong. Not sure whether this genre popular in Europe and US 😮
Headfonia_L.
Not so much in EU. I really like the tone of this song though. Very nice
Thanks for the suggestion

I love the melody and the fact that they managed to fuse metal and cello together.
dalethorn
I played the first 6 or 7 songs off the album – all obvious metal (throbbing stuff), and then this one with no clues – never would have guessed this was anything but generic darkwave.
