For those of you who care at all about the actual business of music, as well as the art of music, which I suppose mightn't be that many of you, this makes for absolutely fascinating viewing/listening. As much as anything the candid nature of the chat, as well as the fact that it comes from an insider make this compelling. Interesting, too, to hear that the music business was struggling massively up until the advent of the CD. Just as it has been since. It's also interesting that he pinpoints mass exposure on commercial radio as [...]

All week long you are going to hear nothing but us harping on this band from Belgium - THE TELLERS . This song reminds me of the first time I heard THE KOOKS or putting on " Lost in the Supermarket " from ' London Calling ', because it just has an exuberance to it that lacks the overwhelming amount of 'indier-than-thou' pretension floating around these days. The Tellers are first on tonight at the Havana Social Club for The Rumble Seattle (10pm stage time). SONG OF THE DAY: [...]

Et bien voilà, il fallait bien que ça arrive, le 14 février tombe cette année un dimanche... Honnêtement j'aurai très bien pu faire comme si de rien n'était, mais chez Streetkiss nous avons tout de même une thématique qui nous est chère, qui nous est propre et qui fait notre personnalité, celle de répandre l'amour et la tendresse... Alors puisque ce jour s'y prête plus particulièrement, je suis allé farfouiller dans mes archives musicales histoire d'essayer de vous offrir une playlist aussi sensuelle qu'irrésistible. Mais juste avant de commencer, j'ai [...]

I've had this album sittin', but finally got around to it, glad I did. Belgians Ben and Chris are the acoustic folk act The Tellers . Okay they aren't completely acoustic but they got that sound going. This is some great indie pop full of pianos, harmonicas and tambourines! The Tellers have released their debut full length album, Hands Full Of Ink , off of 62tv Records . 16 tracks of sing-a-long goodness. These youths have only been around for a few short years but their underdog story has helped them land [...]

En hup, daar zijn weer een paar nieuwe bands voor Eurosonic bekend geworden: MIT Op de Myspace van het Duitse MIT zijn 4 tracks te horen, waarvan vooral Good Book zeer goed te pruimen is, ondanks dat ze zich in een vrij uitgemolken genre begeven. Vergelijkingen met bands als The Faint en The Rapture zijn gauw gemaakt, maar voor die bands doet MIT niet eens veel onder. Best een leuke band dit. Think Of One Waar ze in België op dit moment nogal problemen hebben om [...]
