Annual Post

Whoa... a whole year has gone by, and more -- I spend most of my listening time on SOMA FM, where I tune in to Suburbs of Goa. My latest favorite place for discovering new music is gogoyoko, which has a great selection of post rock sounds (lots of other stuff there too). I've also spent time at The 61, which recommends music, based on how you respond to music you hear. Haven't downloaded music

Michael Waters returns

Michael Waters returned to the Duncan Garage Showroom last week... another memorable concert. This time it was extra special, because it was an incredibly balmy evening in Duncan, the first of the year really, and there were just a handful of us in there gathered around the stage. Michael engaged us during the break. We talked about what part music takes in our lives. Michael made a comment

OUIM.net rediscovered

I recently rediscovered OUIM net.label, loaded with psychedelic listening pleasures. The home page has 3 music streams and between the releases and DJ sets, almost 100 well curated psychedelia titles to download. I'm reminded of an old favorite by Fairytale, released the week before Christmas, it sounds like a drunken Christmas party at first, but soon wanders into

Michael Bates

Michael Bates' Outside Sources:  On Equilibrium I'm back on The Island, and finally made it to the Duncan Garage Showroom. The Man (Longevity John) himself, told me I should come hear Michael Bates, and so I did. Such a memorable show. And suddenly I'm listening to jazz again.

Lawrence Lessig's New Gig

The San Jose Mercury News offers this interview with the founder of Creative Commons. Lawrence Lessig remains as CEO, but he's started work on something new.

Ganga Giri

ganga giri liveshow
Vacation, travel and other distractions... and I'm not sure I'm even back yet, but I did make it to the Vancouver Folk Festival... wow... Ganga Giri knows how to put on a show... though I'm not sure everyone would call this folk music. Festival rules say no dancing in front of the stage -- but for Ganga Giri, that's impossible -- everybody was dancing. +++ --
