Every week, we get bombarded with emails from PR guys and artists who want their music reviewed. Some of those are industry guys who've never checked what this blog is about, because we get stuff like U2, yet some are honest artist/readers of the blog and I'd definitely feel bad if I don't lend an ear to their music. When I was more actively doing music in the 99-00 period there weren't any mp3blogs/social networks even netlabels and frankly I thought it was too much of a hassle to send demos to labels and contact people, I didn't know [...]

The last couple of weeks has seen a sudden burden on both my inbox and postman's sack. So, following in the footsteps of both Sean and Kip, I'm trying to restore some order both to my Gmail account and dining room table. I'm sure that if I don't, some of these will gather dust in a dark corner as the good wife declares war on the unsuspecting artist's labours of love!

Got a wintry mix out here on the east coast. Muruch discovers The Avett Bros. i (heart) music (hearts) Basia Bulat – and has a live CBC Radio Session.
