The Weekly Downloads: Mar. 9 ~ Mar. 15

I was pretty excited Tuesday morning when I logged into New Release Tuesday, and saw not one but two downloads, Sanctus Real’s “Forgiven” and Passion’s “Our God”.  I haven’t had a chance to listen to “Our God” yet, but “Forgiven” is Sanctus Real’s latest single & a downright amazing song, so if you ask me, it’s a must-get.  Enjoy!

Also sporting two trendy new downloads this week is iTickets, with Robbie Seay Band’s “Miracle” and Carlos Whittaker’s “Rain It Down”.

Next up is a download from Addison Road, courtesy of FreeCCM – this is either the fourth or fifth free song I’ve gotten from their self-titled debut.

Wrapping up this week’s batch of downloads is Stellar Kart’s “Everything Is Different Now” on Tangle.com.  Since that song is already available from at least two different websites it’s not all that exciting to see it available again, but what is exciting is the fact that Tangle’s updated their website, which will hopefully mean more free tunes from their each week.

That’s it for this week, and by the way, you may have noticed I’ve been trying to keep these a bit shorter then I used to.  That’s because most of the downloads are often available elsewhere, and I’d rather be working on something that many of you don’t already have.  That said, hang on, because there’s a lot more new music coming soon.

The Weekly Downloads: Oct. 6 – Oct. 12

Welcome to another week of free downloads from all of usual suspects – iTickets, NewReleaseTuesday, Tangle, and Gospel Music Channel – this week, there’s about twice as much music as normal, thanks to Gotee Records – but more on that in a bit.

First up this week, Tangle.com is featuring Mandisa’s song “He Is With You” on their homepage.  It’s from Mandisa’s sophomore album Freedom, and the soundtrack to Mandisa’s second music video, which you can watch here.  Check it out!

-Tangle.com-

Also free this week is a brand new Christmas song from Chris Tomlin, courtesy of Gospel Music Channel.  It’s called “Emmanuel (Hallowed Manger Ground)”, from Chris’s new album Glory in the Highest, which came out two days ago on Oct. 6.  Incidentally, that’s the same release date as Downhere & Family Force 5′s Christmas albums.  Anyway, it’s never to early to start collecting Christmas music, and this is a pretty good place to start.

Besides that, last week, Gospel Music Channel had pretty cool song that’s still available.  It’s “It Is Your Grace”, by Andreas Sandlund.  If the name sounds familiar, there’s a good reason – I was privileged to feature his song “We’re Miles Away” on TFCMB last January, and I’m really excited to see him getting some major attention.  Definitely check this one out!

iTickets also has several free downloads this week, from COS, Relient K, and Paul Wright.  Now, Relient K shouldn’t need much introduction, nor should Paul Wright, but COS doesn’t have the advantage of being famous, at least not yet.  Basically, “Your Will” is a super-stripped down worship song, it’s barely acoustic, and actually sounds quite good.  Worth checking out.

This post is getting long… and I’m only about half way.  Seriously, this is a big week – and the biggest batch of downloads of from NewReleaseTuesday.com.  They have a whopping 8 downloads this week, seven of whom are Gotee Records artists.  The listing:

• Relient K – “The Lining Is Silver”
• B.Reith – “Mess”
• House of Heroes – “In The Valley of the Dying Sun”
• Abandon Kansas – “I Wonder If It’s Me”
• Ayeisha Woods – “Transparent”
• Stephanie Smith – “Not Afraid”
• I Am Terrified – “Falling On Everlasting”

And hanging on from last week, an excellent song from non-Gotee artist Matt Maher called “Alive Again”.  I’ve already gotten all 8 songs free from other sites, but if you’re missing all or any, this is a great opportunity to download them, for free.

Augh!  I just keep finding more music…  ah, it’s hard to complain about that.  You can also get three free songs from Michael W. Smith, Matt Maher (once again!), and Phil Stacey at this link:

-A New Hallelujah Tour-

And you can download three songs from Matt Papa, Jason Gray, and High Valley at OnCourse.  Bottom right of the page, follow the instructions there.

-On Course Magazine-

And that wraps up the weekly downloads for this week, so till next week, this is Matt signing off.

Free Download of Chris Tomlin’s “Jesus Messiah”

iTickets has big news this week.  Their free download this week is “Jesus Messiah”, the latest radio hit from Chris Tomlin.  It’s from Chris’s brand new CD Hello Love, which comes out today.  That’s about as fresh as it gets.  Enjoy!

Update:  Man, I was going to mention Josh’s reviews this post, but I forgot.  Hopefully, better late then never.  Anyway, TFCMB reader Josh has begun posting reviews on his FaithFreaks blog on the iTicket’s downloads.  He’s been at it 18 weeks, which is amazing.  I started TFCMB in just about the same way, so I wanted to bring him to your attention and let you check his work out.
