Back from the dead! I’ve not been thinking much lately about the deep stuff, but I have been doing lots of web surfing. Here’s some of the cool stuff I’ve found. Read the rest of this entry »
Just a few years ago before my life got a lot more complex, I loved discovering new musicians. I loved the feeling of finding a new artist. It almost feels as though they are your own when you discover them. I’ve not discovered much new music in the last three years. I used to find out about cool bands from Punk Planet (which is no longer published), 75 minutes (which is also gone), and Delusions of Adequacy (which is still cool but not perfect). If Delusions of Adequacy would allow me to view a list of all their reviews sorted chronologically rather than alphabetically it might be all I would need. Alas, it does not. Where online to people find new music? It is important to me that the music is recorded outside the confines of a major label. (See previous post.) I’m checking out Last.fm again, but I’m concerned about the link to a major media conglomerate (CBS?). Anyone have any suggestions?
Finally, Google Reader has added a search feature! I can now waste away my days and nights much more efficiently.
