I think the domain is catchy. You have chosen a good domain. The logo is pretty good too. I love that you offer guests to hear the song before they download the file. It is very rare, but it is a unique feature. I love the tweet button above the post. It is also very rare. Both facebook and twitter buttons are placed perfectly. When I've been on your website a little while, I realize that the operator is a good webmaster.

Site Logo:

I didn't liked it much. It was hard to read what was written there, though the concept is very good, but just the font is pissing me off.

Site Speed:

The site loads slow for me and I think its probably due to the facebook plugin.
Ok now, just rethink why you added it ? Facebook does not supports piracy and it doesn't helps much. Facebook Marketing is mainly for viral stuffs that go high for few weeks and then go down. You should not advertise your website as the conversions (traffic) will not be that much. So instead I'd suggest you to remove that facebook plugin.

Site Title:

I can see just "AllNewBeats.com". Think differently, try to add something eye-catching or appealing there.
Something like "All New Beats - From all over the world" or something like that, something catchy (I fail at thinking such things)

Site Theme:

The theme structure & overview is good, but its not making the site to feel active. Its just making it dull. Try changing the navbar Grey colour to something more bright colour (blue, yellow, green) as its a music blog, so the site itself look much of filled with enthusiasm.

Site URLs:

The URL structure which you currently have is not good for SEO.

Its so damm long and Google hates long URLs. Try to minimize it by just having the postname.html
Something like this
http://allnewbeats.com/adele-rolling...ker-remix.html



Also, install this plugin as it will clean the unwanted characters, letters, etc. in the title and will help in SEO.

Submit Music:

I like this idea. When I went over there, I had more expectations. I saw an old method of "How to submit your content to a website" instead, use this plugin which will help you modernize everything and a bit of semi-automatic too.

The How To Download page is neat.

--------

Remove the Calendar, its not needed. We have a calendar on our desktops.

Do the changes if you feel they are right and then reply here.

Thanks guys for these awesome reviews and feedback I didn't expected that!

First of all it is not warez or illegal music, it's free music in other words As for the theme, I know I should try to add a little bit of color and everything in order to make it look active and attractive If I change the url's syntax, my facebook links will all be corrupted, but I will find a way to make it work because it's a good idea!

Thanks again guys, it really helped me out

If its free music, then its perhaps ok to use Facebook.

Changing the URL Syntax won't effect much as your website is new. It would matter if its linked in from major websites, but since its not, I guess you can changed them

[Aquickhost]

I would love if you added more colors to the theme.
Other than that, Very nice job! Keep it up!

Wow, that's a really nice domain!

- I really like the skin and the way your banner is placed
- I don't really think hulkshare is very famous. If I was a downloader, I'd generally prefer to download via FS/FSO. Although directly buffering of Hulkshare is good
- I think you should add more categories to your site.
- Add the hyperlink here.
- I like the twitter button at the bottom of the post next to the like button. You can change that easily from the settings afaik. It's your wish where you wanna keep it though.
- I think you should change the site title from AllNewBeats.com to All New Beats - Free Music, Good Music.

Cheers

Thought it was an instrumental site. Great domain tho, and the banner is unique... I like it
