What type of music do we like? Anything we think sounds good.

Negative.fm functions as a curated database of artists, similar to a management roster or A&R database. This database lists artists we believe are up-and-coming or have "broken through" to the mainstream. Our methodology for adding an artist is based on a combination of data, the artist's social and industry network, and our own feeling.

Negative.fm is not meant to be a blog. We don’t write out journalism pieces that rank the artists we feature since we believe everyone hears and feels music differently. We believe that you should form your own musical opinions and we don’t want to influence you with ours. In other words, we do not rank or review artists as we don't believe music is either "good" or "bad". Music is subjective and genres are flexible. There should be no 1-5 or star rankings.
