    I just follow the artists and all the music news sources and vinyl sellers that I like on facebook and let the news come to me. I also get on the mail lists for all the vinyl sellers I come across to stay updated on their upcoming releases. Just scrolling through my email and facebook news feed at least once a day keeps me pretty well informed.
    Spotify seems to be working well when it comes to new singles and albums as they are released, but you have to already be following the artist to get those alerts.

    Pitchfork and Stereogum. While there is significant cross over between the two, I pretty much get all the music news relevant to my interests.

    Hoffman forums.  Pretty hard to beat.

    http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/

    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Another Spotify source that I love: Release Radar. Curated once a week to match your music tastes, a list of songs that have recently been released, which also leads to you to the new albums that you might be into. Very helpful.

    I've really never checked out the Hoffman forums much Brian - I need to go have another look.
