"Paste magazine will premiere English folk-rock band Slow Club's upcoming disc Paradise via still-in-beta startup Turntable.fm on Tuesday.\nSlow Club's sophomore album drops on September 13, but fans can check out tracks and chat with the band in Paste's Turntable room today at 2 p.m. ET. (And you can check out the first single, \"Two Cousins,\" below).\nFor the uninitiated, Turntable.fm is a series of chatrooms in which music is played by users. Five DJs can hold court at the same time, and members of the room vote on whether songs are \"lame\" or \"awesome,\" thereby garnering the DJs points. Songs are played via either Medianet or user upload, and one can only join a DJ room if he or she has a Facebook friend using the service. Right now, the service is U.S.-only for legal reasons, but it recently got a jolt of legitimacy in the form of licensing agreements with BMI and ASCAP.\nA few weeks ago, we suggested that bands use the service to host new album listening parties, and in the weeks following we've seen more and more of them getting hip to TT.fm. Ra Ra Riot\u2019s Mathieu Santos premiered his solo album on Turntable.fm (and effectively crashed the site in the process), as did the band Class Actress.\nCurrently, a lot of TT.fm's top users  are developers and early (techie) adopters, but perhaps more bands will continue to flock to the service as it continues to grow.\n\n\n      \"Two Cousins,\" Slow Club by Mashable \n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
