"Open Source Audio," by Jon Udell
I then ask how, in the face of such randomness, you can find music you'd like. The discussion turns to webjay.org and, in particular, to one of the leading webjays, OddioKatya, who also holds forth at Oddio Overplay. We hear about Katya's approach to free and legal sharing of music online....

"No Fears: Laptop DJ's Have a Feast," by Jon Pareles
Downloading music from the Internet is not illegal. Plenty of music available online is not just free but also easily available, legal and - most important - worth hearing.... At www.webjay.org, music fans share their Web finds with the world.... It is a way for OddioKatya to point listeners toward a wide assortment of Brazilian songs. [no Português]

from Boing Boing: A Directory of Wonderful Things
Fave music site: Oddio Overplay. Todd Lappin sez: The Oddio Overplay website is one of the true jewels of the Interweb. Dedicated to odd, obscure, and out-of-print music,... the special compilations are a hoot, and exploring the links to other free music sites is an activity that's guaranteed to gobble up hours and hours of otherwise productive work time.

from Fingertips, guide to free and legal music
Oddio Overplay is an expansive, friendly site that points to all sorts of places where free and legal music can be had on the web. The specialty here is on sounds that are "far from the mainstream," as the site says; the vibe is home-spun and affectionate. Katya, who runs the place, has an unending capacity to find hidden music online and a joyful, infectious willingness to share her discoveries. This has always been one of my favorite, offbeat sites to visit to find interesting music; thanks to a recent re-design, Oddio Overplay is more accessible and friendlier than ever, even as the music remains wide-rangingly obscure for the most part. But poke around and you will be amply rewarded, and consistently reminded that in the 21st century, the gems are much more likely to be found on the fringe than in the middle of the fabric.

from Queep Organic Music, a non-profit, artist-run initiative to help and promote independent/unsigned artists and their material
This is a very valuable resource for artists going the Independent route. Its most useful feature is a list of links to sites that house Independent music download sites. It also has a list of some supportive Indie radio shows and stations, and plenty of other info, like links of other directories....

I'll never post another album gallery again: Oddio Overplay's collection of cover art links puts my humble efforts to shame. But that's just the tip of the iceberg at Oddio Overplay, which has to be one of the most amazing music-related sites I've ever come across. I could waste days here.

Oddio Overplay left me shaking my head in wonder. DL full length mix CD's of golden age Blues, Asian traditional, international pop, Russian folk; leaf through a "junk drawer" of more free form CD mixes; take a music safari in the plethora of beautifully organized music linkage...; revel in the slick, easy to navigate design. I do not exaggerate when I say that if you do not check this action out right now, you are a certifiable Dexter. I am NOT joking. and Thanks to Katya from Oddio Overplay for unearthing this one; she finds all us Charlie Bucket-types the nicest sorts of Golden Tickets.

There's also artwork, an accompanying blog, and information about audio players.

Oddio Overplay is Odd Audio. That isn’t their logo, as far as I know, but it could be. Perhaps it should be Odd and Wonderful Audio.... Oddio Overplay has collections of music from all over the world, and all of it well off the beaten bath.

Je ne suis pas seul à recenser des sons sympas mis sur le web... il y a une enorme base de données qui s'en occupe déjà sous le nom de Oddio Overplay. Ca va de Jad Fair à l'axotica hawaienne, d'Ergo Phizmiz aux mixtapes reggaeton. Le genre de site sans fin...

Oddio Overplay vient de réouvrir avec un nouveau look (superbe, 'gorgeous' comme ils disent à New York), et avec la compilation tant attendue qui regroupe un paquet de déjantés de divers endroits de la planête. La pochette est belle comme tout, et le livret est gorgeous comme le site.
