Audiophonics: The Web Generation
http://audiophonics.blogspot.com/2009/04/web-generation.html
Thursday, April 16, 2009. First of all, if you know the person who invented exams, sit them down and have a good long chat, and ask them why. Now that that's out of the way. if you have a Twitter. Account, or maybe you've noticed on Facebook or elsewhere, that Ashton Kutcher. Talking earlier tonight about what he's apparently trying to say with this popularity contest. He's not the most eloquent speaker, and he still sounds like Kelso to me -. But you can choose. And I was fully blown away. Before checki...

Audiophonics: March 2009

Monday, March 30, 2009. What, this one? Well, no. Although a post dedicated to ancient Roman deities would be fun. But I'm more familiar with Greek mythology (Orpheus = first rock star? And in any case I'm not going to do that right now. If you're into that kind of thing, Canada held its national music awards show, also known as the Juno Awards. I hope you watched it. If you didn't, I did a nice little irritating play-by-play on Twitter. Which is pretty much like watching it, right? On a personal note, i...

Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Here's an article from the Guardian. That looks at whether YouTube darlings OK Go are a successful band, or just a viral video sensation. Yes, you know their videos " Here It Goes Again. And the new big smash " This Too Shall Pass. But do you know their music? That is to say, other than these two songs, how well do you know OK Go's stuff? Did you know their new album, Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky. Came out in January? Or do we just want it all for free, and for the time being?

Friday, April 24, 2009. So, after listening to my roommate play "Go The Distance" on piano last night. I found the music video. And watched it at least 3 times. And felt so inspired to achieve something that it was a shame that it was 4 in the morning. I don't know what it is about that song and others - seriously, I just watched half of it again after finding the link. I can't stop. Sure, the lyrics are inspiring - if there are any, and the music makes you want to get up and DO shit. Here. Account, or m...

Monday, June 15, 2009. Surgery and Polaris Prizes, Oh My! Where have I been for the last few weeks? Well, sometimes I be working, sometimes I be partying, and sometimes I be getting my wisdom teeth out last Friday. I am currently in recovery for that particular bit of surgery, and am moving further away from looking like this. Basically wrote this post for me, because all I'm gonna do is let you know that the Polaris Music Prize. Has announced its longlist. Won 2 years ago, and he's never been what you w...

Friday, December 11, 2009. Blowin' the dust off. So much, SO much, I have noted in the music world in the last 5 months, and none of it have I posted here. Most of it, I have forgotten. But I will stretch these creaky old joints and drum up what I can. FLASH: In a table-turn so ill it would make DJ AM. RIP) proud, the big-four record labels are being sued for piracy. Turns out they haven't been paying artists for using their songs in compilations. Ah, the sweet smell of hypocrisy. The album. But ther...

Audiophonics: January 2009

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. The title of my post is the title of a podcast I listened to today, from CBC Radio's Ideas. What's this have to do with music? I don't know, who's asking? Hm I suppose I should answer me, before I stop speaking to me because I ignored my question. My favourite thing about whales and dolphins - might as well call them cetaceans, since that's what they are and it sounds so. Has some cool guitar work as bookends, and at just about 11:20 into Pink Floyd. Monday, January 19, 2009.
