Seems like I have been saying a word a lot lately when I talk about the web: Aggregation. I’m talking about a site’s ability to collect a bunch of data, automatically, and serve it up in a useful way.

One site I’ve been watching is called musiclovr.com. They have an interesting aggregation of album art, photos, videos, biographical info and song samples on just about any artist you enter. If you like them, there’s a link to buy at iTunes or Amazon. Additionally, the site takes advantage of the last.fm “audio scrobbler” data to connect you to other artists you might also like. This kind of mash-up of internet data is really what makes the web valuable, in my opinion. Sure, you could search in three or four places online and get this info, but why would you when you can get it in one place?

The site is still in beta, but I think there’s a ton of potential for it to become an excellent resource when looking for new music or just finding collected information about an artist you already like.

By the way, while you’re there, check out their artist of the month for July….
