Slicethepie is the most well known website which pay people for reviewing music. The idea of this website is very simple. New bands can upload their music, or anyway, bring thier music to a large audience and if what they sign get good review, chances are they will be signed up by a recod label, or anyway, they will find it easier to break into the music industry. My experience with this website only relate to the songs I reviewed, I do not know exactly how and what needs to be done if you wish to put your music on Slicethepie. You need to sign up and create a login in order to rate. You then listen to a song for at least 60 ...  Read the complete review

Slicethepie.com is a webste which acts as a financing platform for new artists. Members of the public join the site, and vote directly on their favourite tracks.

There are two big options on here become a artist your self and upload the music on the site. This will allow people to review your music and if its good you can be with a chance to get a contract it has happened for a lot of bands and people on the site. The other option is become a scout that means you review the music by other people on the site. You are judged by ratings and need to be accurate.

I use this site for leisure and killing the odd half hour when I'm waiting for something, such as if I have half an hour before I have to head out the door. If you like unsigned music, then it's a great place to kill time and get rewarded for it too. I can only really review it from the point of a music scout, and not an unsigned band as sadly I'm talentless and tone deaf when coming to playing a musical instrument. One benefit is that its easy to find your way around, and it splits in into three sub categories: bands looking to be signed up, people looking to invest in music, and people looking to review music. I generally go to the scouting ...  Read the complete review

This is a nice site for bands and music lovers. Bands can get feedback on their work and even win prizes to help further their career. For music lovers, its a way to hear lots of new music and actually get paid to review the tracks. After 60 seconds you are allowed to start writing a review. Over time your payment will increase from 5p to 10p, it sounds like not a lot, and it isn't. But if you like music this is a fun way to earn a few extra pounds. They pay reviewers through Paypal which is handy. The site isn't the most user friendly so its just a case of exploring it until you figure it out. It's important to have a good internet connection too ...  Read the complete review
