#musicmonday No. 12 – Full album cover of...
Everybody’s talking about Nirvana’s seminal album Nevermind, which was released 20 years ago, on September 24th 1991. To be honest: I wasn’t a big fan of Nirvana in those days (nor am I today), in fact, I really didn’t care about Grunge. But although my attitude against Grunge hasn’t changed (After a couple of tracks, I simply find it completely boring, sorry folks),...

Anybody into Shara Worden aka. My Brightest Diamond here? Well, since I first heard her music, I fell in love with her voice and her music. Soon her third album will be released and I’m really looking forward to that. In the meantime, I will enjoy this free download of a remix of her today released single “Be Brave”.
My Brightest Diamond, “Be Brave (Prefuse 73...

Dear artists ...
Dear artists, would you please do me a huge favour and stop using myspace.com to promote your music? It’s simply too awful. Use Reverbnation, use Tumblr, use Posterous, use Blogger, use Wordpress, use Facebook or whatever you like, but avoid Myspace. I literally hate it trying to find any useful information on that crappy, messy, slow, unintuitive pages, packed with huge ads and spam by...

M-PeX - iPhado EP
With due respect: What a strange band name M-PeX and what a lame album title iPhado … yet, this mix of dubstep, electronic music and Portuguese guitar music is astonishly coherent and - contrary to what I expected from a release named like this - quite an original and refreshing contribution to the very interesting Portuguese folk music.

#musicmonday No. 10 – Electronic Music & Ambient...
Mike Carss aka. Altus, located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, is one of the most interesting and most individual electronic musicians I’ve happened to stumble upon in the free music world. Though his music is mainly “ambient” he adds more harmony, more melody, more “music” to his works, than most of his colleagues. I’ve made the experience that his music works even...
