Last year, the Gris Gris played their final show in the warehouse where Ashley resides. The concert was recorded and is now available on CD and LP. Click here [...]

Personally, I've been having kind of a hard time describing it to others. Still, I like it a lot, and think that it will - in some form or another - be the future of blogging.

"Know" - Nick Drake [...]

I received an email yesterday that social networking music site/record label Fuzz.com would be shutting down: It was with a heavy heart that we finally made the decision to turn off the lights, but because of increasing operating costs and flat revenues it simply no longer makes sense for us to keep Fuzz.com running. We offer our heartfelt thanks for being a part of it, and we'd like to give a special added thanks our avid, core users -- true music fans who made Fuzz their home-base, and created a real sense of community. I remember when [...]
