Have I ever mentioned B-Side Wins Again to you guys? It’s a great hip hop MP3 blog that puts out super rare, usually old songs that are rarely available in record stores or elsewhere. If you want to learn about old hip-hop, this is the place to do it. This guy is a goldmine.

Celebrity is a subject that has been rattling around in my head recently. It started around when I started podcasting, or more precisely, when I realized that people were really listening for the first time. In a way, we are all celebrities. Some of us are larger-scale, than others, true. Adam Curry is pretty huge, [...]

Sorry about some of the stuff disappearing on here. Should be fine soon. Not pleased with having to work on this on a Sunday, but what are you going to do.
If you like my DJ sets, you’ll love Stones Throw’s podcast. Stones Throw is the sick label that put out Madvillainy and Jay Dee’s final album, Donuts, so don’t sleep on their podcasts. They rock. Episode #5 is by Roc C and J Rocc. Perfect listening while you’re working on something and need to get [...]

This is an interview with me, by Philippe Martin of the francophone blog N’ayez pas peur! It’s in French; I might translate it in the next few days if I’m up to it (unless someone else is up to the task – post it on your blog and I’ll link to you). Durant l’entrevue, on [...]
Hey, sorry it took so long to get this out. This is the last of the MUTEK 2006 panels, titled Records… Dead? The panelists. In my opinion, this was the most interesting of all the panels available this year. Not only did it pique my interest in music, but it also addressed digital distribution. I [...]

This panel’s focus was on music festivals across the world, how they had gotten where they are up until this point, and where they were going (thus the title). Take a look – this panel is probably the one that required the most involvement and knowledge about the subject (aka I found it boring). Take [...]

Panel 2: Music in the Future: Perspectives and New Models This panel was right up my alley, and if you like information and discussion that relates around the music industry, you’ll love this (especially since it relates to digital distribution of music). Here’s the direct link to the file. [Audio clip: view full post to [...]

Podcasting is one of the greatest names of our generation.
Try out eMusic for free As of June 1st 2006, eMusic reviews its new promo for signing up, changing it to 25 free downloads, instead of 50. I remember some people even got 100 downloads somehow, back in the day, but no more. If I could bring it back, guys, I would. But it just [...]
