Came across this while looking for other stuff, tonight, and thought some of you might like to take a look. I didn't explore it too much and didn't see any sound files, but it looks like a terrific source for group and individual artists' names and contacts in countries around the world. I was impressed by the numbers. Here ya go:

World Music Central dot org.

P.S. Forgot to mention it has extensive resources on it for music, including news, festivals, etc., again, all around the world!
