As one might say if one were attempting to be, ahem, down with the kids, everybody likes to “get their free on”. Try-hard gibberish aside, what the point is, here, is that a bit of legal free music can never be a bad thing.

Hands in the air like you just don’t care, then, for Big Scary Monsters Records, who have a free download sampler now available. It features a variety of musicians and bands that the label is currently working with – Kevin Devine, Rosa Valle, DZ Deathrays, Hymns, Dad Rocks! and Algiers. You can grab your download from the Big Scary Monsters website.

If you want more than a download and have a few free quid to spare, then it’s worth knowing that right now any purchases in the Big Scary Monsters shop also get you the opportunity to pay £1 for a 15-track CD label sampler. An actual CD. Not a download. Nice.
