This year has been an incredible one for music. I don't know if it was the full year of blogging about it, but I have learned and heard so much during the past year, making it incredibly difficult at times to really narrow down what was the best of the good. Looking back over the year, there were some clear choices, some not so clear, and a couple that surprised me. Already, 2009 is shaping up to look like a good year already. Runners up: Always the Bridesmaid : Decemberists, Human : Civil Twilight, [...]
Like last year, I came across a huge number of new songs and new artists. There were some that were very good, and some that were well worth forgetting. Here's my favorite new discoveries of 2008: Bombadil These guys out of North Carolina play a mean live act. There's energy, lots of hand-eye coordination and some very good songs. While not quite out there as an indie group such as the Decemberists, these guys have a quirky nature to their songwriting that really makes them stand out. [...]

Yes, I'm back but no I haven't had any time to myself to post anything. Thanks to Dieter yet again for emailing me and saving my butt because between a sick kiddo, a TIRED mind, a friend in from out of state and a mountain of work to catch up on this just TOTALLY slipped my mind and I didn't have the WAZ song in my library anyway so I'd have had to search for it. Enjoy the tunes...it looks
One thing that has improved with time and technology is my ability to research songs in real-time. As annoying as it might be for my wife, I can generally bust out whatever smartphone device I have and do a quick google search. Since I got the iPhone 3G, this has improved dramatically. I can still craft a decent search- usually involving lyrics from the song and the word "lyrics" and the results come back with what I'm looking for. With the iPhone I also have the killer app "Shazam" which allows my phone to sample an overheard song and search [...]

That was when I saw that for the first time we were featured on elbo.ws, and that absolutely made my evenining enough to give me inspiration to write and feature some amazing artists.

This week features a huge amount of releases for your listening pleasure. It is one of those weird weeks that is solid throughout. That said, there are a few albums that I would highly recommend. Cloud Cult's Feel Good Ghosts is an excellent album that really builds on what made their previous release, The Meaning of 8 , such a great album. For those of you who are like me and love to add to their electronic/electronic rock collection, Cut Copy's In Ghost Colors will have you spinning it for a [...]
Tina Dico shares her truth on the title song of her new album " Count To Ten ." The song makes a powerful statement about letting go and taking time to move on from what's unrepairable. "Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to go slow," she sings. "Sometimes if you wanna hold on, you gotta let go." With a grit similar to Sheryl Crow and a melodic sense comparable to Imogen Heap, the Danish singer serves up a sound that is compelling and fresh. Particularly impressive is an epic, orchestral middle eight that emerges [...]

credit George Clinton arguably did it first with Parliament/Funkadelic. RZA conceivably did it best with the Wu-Tang Clan. Of late, Broken Social Scene seems to have a death grip on the concept and my wallet with their furthering of the process. What the hell am I going on about? Kick ass bands that invariably have solo projects by various member that, while sometimes markedly different from the group sound, kick just as much ass on their own. Not to be outdone by the competition, it would appear Zero 7 now is [...]

Tina has put together a fantastic album here, with a number of really good songs - and this is one of the strongest songs on it. Count To Ten - Tina Dico [...]
