My default web browser is Google Chrome and while using Grooveshark on it, I came across 3 wonderful Chrome extensions that enhanced my overall experience on Grooveshark. For the benefit of all my Chrome using readers (who are also Grooveshark fans), I am going to share these wonderful extension. Read about and install each one; they all serve an important purpose.

1. Ads-Free Grooveshark

Grooveshark offers paid and free plans to its users. Free accountholders are shown ads in their Grooveshark interface – something which is quite distracting and bothersome to some users. This Chrome extension does exactly what its name suggests: it removes those ads. What I liked most about Ads-free Grooveshark that there were no options to set up; the ads simply disappeared once I started installed the extension.

2. ChromeShark

ChromeShark is another Chrome extension that neatly complements the Grooveshark experience in Chrome. It places an icon in our address bar which, when clicked, shows us very basic audio player controls. These controls include previous song, play/pause, next song, and stop.

3. keySharky

While we have the Grooveshark’s player open, we can use keyboard shortcuts which let us control the player like any other audio player. These hotkey shortcuts are introduced by keySharky. The extension lets us change the default hotkey combinations in its options.

Using all these 3 extensions on your Chrome will surely enhance your Grooveshark experience.

Way back in history, humans used to stretch magnetized strips of a petroleum derivative and electronically infuse them with audio recordings. The original audio recording playback machine was at least the length of a football field. Until someone noticed that you could spool the “tapes” of recordings into easily potable “compact cassettes.” And it was good. In the 90s, after two failed attempts, audio recordings were being stored in Magical Playbacker 3 boxes or “MP3 Players”. And it was better. But if you are the type that loves to wear day-glo colors and drink wine coolers, then you just might love this latest hybrid format that is sure to take you Back to the Future. From London’s dadahack, comes the latest in retro chic audio playback devices. The “TAP3″ is essentially an digital audio player in the form factor of the classic compact cassette. Yes yes, we know, you’ve seen this before. Ah, but wait! There is more. This handy little device also allows playback in your father’s old cassette player, boom box or any other tape player you find at garage sales. With audio stored on a 2GB SD card and transferring done via mini USB, these limited edition players are sure to make you feel like a virgin all over again.

If you are an avid music fan like me, you will surely love the application I have got for you today. Today all music is electronically stores and there is a good chance that all your music collection exists as mp3 files. Mp3 files are portable and can be carried around in flash drives as well as cellphones and mp3 players. But what if you have none of these things with you and only the internet? What if you want to listen to your favorite songs?

Of course you could use an audio streaming website to listen to your song but who knows how long it would take to find your song. A much better alternative is AudioBox.

AudioBox is a free website that provides registered users with 1GB of online storage to host their music audio files. Once our music has been stored into our AudioBox account, we can use any internet-equipped computer to access and listen to our music. We listen and add our music using the in-browser tool and require nothing to download and install. Before we do any of this however, we must first sign up for a free account.

After signing up, you receive an email which you have to open and click on the confirmation link it contains. You will then be directed to your AudioBox dashboard.

To open your web player, click on the “Cloud Web Player” tab in the top row of tabs.

Here we can easily add, organize, and listen to the music on our computer.

Next time whenever we want to listen to our music, we can log on to AudioBox and access our stored music anywhere.

Before I started using torrents, I used to download songs from websites like MP3Raid. When I downloaded these songs, I transferred them onto my cellphone for later listening. However some of the songs were quite long and I wanted to cut them short. For this I used an MP3 editor to cut out a portion of the song. Even now when I have to extract a portion of the song for later listening or to set it as my ringtone, I use the MP3 editor which I have installed on my computer.

CutMP3 is a website that eliminated my need to have an audio editor installed on my computer for cutting out portions of songs.

CutMP3 is a website with a remarkable user friendly interface. The function of the site is quite simple: to enable its visitors to upload audio files and cut portions out of it. CutMP3 provides this service to its visitors free of any charge.

In order to use CutMP3, we must first upload a file using the “Open MP3” button

The file we upload is then presented in an audio player on the site.

We click on the “Play” button to start our recording and on the “Stop” button to end it. The sliders located at the bottom can also alter the length of our audio.

Finally we achieve our extracted audio and can save it onto our hard drive by clicking on the “cut” button.

CutMP3 is a simple to use website that will be a great help to anybody looking to cut off a portion from an MP3 audio file. Give the site a try and drop a comment to let us know what you think.

What do we have for our audiophiles today? A glorious, sleek and majestic player called the Sonic Emotional Pulse Of Music designers by Chen Guoheng. Going by the norm of transparent covers showcasing the disk spinning fast, this one goes a step ahead and partially exposes the spinning disk. Fiber optic cables are used to hook this baby up, with shimmy blue LEDs emitting a soft glow right below the speakers. The highlight of course is the equalizer waves that move in sync with the beat of the music.

You’ve got a lot of audio. Right? You’ve got some music in there, I’m sure. And you wanna split it up, right? Yes, you wanna split up so much, you want not one, not two, but three or MORE people listening to the music at the same time! If you’re a big fan of Chris NG, you know he’s whipped up an audio splitter before that was a bit more for lovers. This one’s for family style. You’ve got all the people in the world on this music. On a three port connection to 3.5mm head phone jacks.

And they daisy chain! Speakers work in this, everything works in this. It’s called the Music Branches Audio Splitter. Dig it.
