Guest Post by Steven Corn co-founder and CEO of independent digital music distributor BFM Digital . Recently it was announced that IODA and The Orchard are merging and majority stake will be owned by Sony Music. Universal Music still owns a large stake in InGrooves. Kobalt just purchased AWAL. What does all this activity mean for the indie artist? After all, for most of them, their relationship with their digital distributor is beyond critical. This appears to another example of the majors [...]

Ei ole veel seda päris õiget selle sügise muusikat avastanud ja ajalootunnid suruvad jätkuvalt tänase päeva tahaplaanile. Aasta 1990 järjekordselt. Consolidated - This Is A Collective (12 inch Mix) ( mp3 ) Pildil ( via ) on ajaloo kalleim tummfilmikaader. Filmist The General , aastast 1926.

It looks like deregulation and the free market have been superb for consumer choice when it comes to their banking needs. You'll notice that in the late 90s and early 00s, when most of the consolidation began , it coincides with the 1999 Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act , which repealed the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act. That act allowed banks to be commercial banks, investment banks and insurance companies under one entity. Tweet

day 20 - a song that you listen to when you're angry As featured on the SPGB Glastonbury 2003 Mix CD, and still one of the best rap records of all time: Who am I kidding? I don't listen to music when I'm angry. I sulk and pout in silence before retiring to a shadowed corner with my John Terry voodoo doll and a box of thumb tacks.

For those who demand quantity over quality, here you go - a selection of songs all less than a minute long! In the interests of maintaining listenability I've excluded hundreds of intros / skits / interludes etc, choosing instead to focus on pieces that, while short, still establish their own identity as songs. So here we go, strap yourself in and feel the Gs: thirty-four songs in twenty-five minutes, twenty seconds! 1. The Dodos, "Eyelids" (mp3) 2. Black Flag, "Wasted" (mp3) 3. De La Soul, "A [...]
Song: Typical Jerkoff Artist: The Carbonas Album: The Carbonas LP Comments: Most people think of The Black Lips when they think of ATL. There is a time an place for flower punk. You want to rock? Well, the Carbonas punk is the right formula. A great kick in the pants for a lazy Sunday. Song: You Suck Artist: Consolidated Album: here and now Comments: Song: Lies Artist: The Delmonas Album: Dangerous Charms Comments: Everyone remembers this as a Beatles [...]
![Her Space Holiday And Consolidated Play "What Genre Is It?" [The Reinvention Sweepstakes]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1289499_lg.jpg)
So the other night I was listening to the new Her Space Holiday album, XOXO, Panda and the New Kid Revival , and it struck me funny. The prior work I've heard did not lead me to believe they would, er, take such heavy inspiration from Modest Mouse this time around. It's not the first time I was genuinely surprised by a change of direction by a band, of course, but it does seem like one of the more obvious about-faces of recent years. Still, an electronically identified act with rock leanings [...]

Consolidated were an industrial band, highly politicised who were influenced in the early 1990s by the sounds coming from Europe. They worked with Jack Dangers (Meat Beat Manifesto) who moved to the US from the UK in that period and added his crunchy beats to their guitars. Consolidated were Adam Sherburne, Mark Pistel and Philip Steir. But they didn't sell terribly well and ended up being better received in the UK and Europe, probably the politics was too much for a US audience. Consolidated was formed in 1988 and was best known in the early [...]

Photo courtesy of this man I fully intend to wax excited about more of my Folk Fest discoveries, but today is Tuesday. And that means it's Contrast Podcast day! To celebrate the sixty-ninth episode, SAS Radio served up a theme that's laden with double entendres : Dinner for Two. I think this is a meal that's best not shared with the kiddies. But if you do care to dine with us, help yourself to the buffet over here , or else [...]

"It's becoming increasingly clear that the most important use of virtualization is not to consolidate hardware boxes but to protect applications from the vagaries of the operating environments they run on. It's all about 'containerization,' to employ a really ugly but useful word. Until fairly recently this was anything but the consensus view. On the contrary, the idea that virtualization is mostly about consolidation has been conventional wisdom ever since IDC started touting VMware's roaring success as one of the reasons behind last year's slowdown in server hardware sales." full post: interopnews.com/news/on-the-rp ath-to-virtual-containerizatio n.html [...]

Here comes another band from my goth/industrial youth. I came to know Consolidated via their mega (at least in the Tampa clubs) dance floor hit; "You Suck" featuring The Yeastie Girls. A track with a female rapper tellin the male populous it's time to go on down, if you know what I mean....if not, just listen to the track down below (pun fully intended). While that song is what Consolidated is best known for in Tampa, they were a lot more than that. Allow me to quote from their Wiki entry: Consolidated was [...]
