How did ya discover Beatbasment?



I just wanna know the way that made you discover beatbasement.
A Friend?
Pure hazard?
Websites about rap?
Others?

For my own, i discovered it by the website www.shoutcast.com wich provide lots of webradios links.
It was a pure hazard, but when the first second came into my hear i knew that it'll be the one wich always sound into my flat all day all night (or almost!)
Now i know i was right :) Beatbasement is always running whan i am awake :)

I found beatbasement by accidentally clicking on the radio icon on iTunes. I'm glad that I did because this station takes me back. I don't listen mainstream rap radio, so this is truly a breath of fresh air to me!!! Whoever thought of this station, GOD BLESS YOU!!!

The feeling of being real fed up with the music played on the PA system at my workplace drove me to this. It was just googling for streaming hip hop stations.

Slapped the stream link into Screamer Radio, and recorded that starting in the afternoon. 100+ songs later, the folder read 60M, I was like "hell I'll keep on recording til I get up tomorrow morning and slap em in the 1G MP3 player before work)


Every track had a good file size (for me anyway, I didn't care about quality as long as I got beats)

Depressed and desperate for good music...

Blind luck...

iTunes -> Hip /Hop (176 Streams) -> BeatBasement - 32 kbps - Independent Hip-Hop

Special shout out to my ex for closing that door and helping me find Bb.

Thank ya bitch!

Wud up.

I found Beatbasement on ITunes Radio. To be honest I wasn't expecting much. To me rap has fallen off. Not enough real lyrical content. Since finding this, I have had the tunes on for 3 days non stop. I love it! Real rap! Real skills.

I'vejust discovered it with the website, ITunes on the list of radio stations. I've just been looking at some stations on the website and accidentally found beatbasement. And I got really curious to the station and later I finally like it.

I've been listening to this fantastic radio station for... gawd knows, a bloody long time that's fer sure. I've had a link on my blog/site leading here (well the homepage) for a very long time now.

I think I found this place through ShoutCAST, which was a very long time ago now, when I had WinAMP.

Anyway, thought I'd register to show my support in this 'ere thread.

Ta very much like.
