My new favorite blog
Getting back to the basics in music is hard to do. When you cut out the label and everything that comes with it, all that’s left is an independent artist and hopefully a recording studio or at least a makeshift one in a bathroom or closet. My favorite. You mean there is still artistic freedom in the world? Yes, with technology comes freedom of distribution. To think that free albums all started with Harvey Danger distributing “Little by Little” for free on P2P. Of course this tactic was made popular by Radiohead’s “In Rainbows”. Making money on popularity and live shows, now there is a concept.
This page celebrates not only different and original music but it also has downloads to the albums described. It gets two thumbs up from me and I applaud the courageous effort. Although not all artists featured are independent artists, they all seem to be astoundingly original and fresh. Anyway… Enough rambling from me. I just love what I have stumbled upon.
