If you’re into music and you like top-lists, I suggest you check out last.fm’s best of 2008. It gives you the low-down on what last.fm’s users listened to and loved in 08. There are three types of lists: albums, artists and tracks, but I won’t spoil it for you by telling you who tops which [...]

Look alike advertising
Am I the only one who thinks this:

Looks a lot like this:

The two ads are a couple of years apart, but aparently ‘3′ have become such a force to be reckoned with that even their OLD concepts are worth knicking
For those who tried to rock
Stumbled upon this blog and felt the urge to go through the old photo albums looking for pictures of my old rap group or maybe even the ZZ top cover band I was in (there, I said it).

The Flip & Flickr video
I ordered Pure Digital’s Flip Ultra camcorder yesterday. I can’t wait to see if it’s all it’s cracked up to be! I bought it as a supplement to my regular camcorder – the point and shoot version so to speak. I’ll write a proper review once it arrives and I’ve had time to test it [...]
Giving it away
It’s important to remember – while bands like Radiohead and NIN are meaking international headlines by giving their music away – that bands have been doing this for quite a while, and continue to do so, obviously realizing that the business models for music distribution are rapidly changing.
One group of guys that deserve attention for [...]
This year in music
Music’s been a huge part of my life this year. A lot of events, gadgets, bands and online initiatives have played a part in that, so I’ve decided to make a personal top ten of my year in music.

Earlier on today Massi posted a YouTube vid under the headline Strangely fascinating video – it is indeed. And the lyrics are sooo Swedish it’s like, well, music to my ears…
The band behind the video [...]
VEGA’s Hip Hop Academy – last post on the subject of DJing
… I’ll be back on track after this post, but I promised my girlfriend to help spread the word about VEGA’s hip hop academy – taking place in the fall break (week 42, I believe).
It’s aimed at kids ages 10 to 16, and features training in DJing, break dancing, beatboxing, street graphics and more. I [...]
Speaking of DJs
Yeah, I know – it’s kinda off topic for my blog, but in keeping with the last couple of posts, check out these kids doin their thang.
Birdy Nam Nam on emusic
Last week i posted a youtube video featuring four DJs collaborating in the creation of one track. I do believe I owe further introduction of the group.
They are Birdy Nam Nam and besides posting vids on youtube, they’ve done two albums (to my knowledge – correct me if I’m wrong) in a style that places [...]
