Stoney Roads is a fantastic blog based in Australia. They're one of our favourite blogs and have been for years now, and we have nothing but a whole lotta respect for them. If for some reason you haven't heard of them then I strongly urge you to like them, follow them, tweet them, RSS them and sign up for their newsletter. Today they posted an opinion article about SoundCloud titled Is Soundcloud the new Myspace? , and I'd like to reply to their post with a post. And because this is a reply, it would obviously [...]
Do you remember Myspace ? Probably not but in the later stages of life it became a fairly squalid place filled with glittering graphics, terrible layouts and most notable totally irrelevant self-promotion and slippery 'marketing techniques' (if you somehow call quasi rappers embedding auto-players marketing geni's). Now it's no where near that stage yet but seemingly Soundcloud is becoming - for all it's merits, an equally ineffective form of music criticism.. Initially the Swedish/German 'audio online distribution' streaming player gave users and listeners a well thought-out and cleanly designed base. You [...]

</embed> Lana Del Rey used to be an indie internet meme who drove hits, but after her DISASTROUS PERFORMANCE on Saturday Night Live , she because a worldwide internet meme who drove hits to all types of blogs. Anyways, she recently released this video 'collab' with Myspace. I'm not sure what the branding strategy is with them, like if her 'team' thinks that people still 'use' Myspace, or maybe they believe it has a valuable editorial voice. Pretty sure that this video is 'getting pulled' because it 'makes her look stupid' after SNL, like she has [...]
