Online Music

Here's a good commented list of some of the social music sites out there - Pandora, Last.fm etc.

The Amen Break

"This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip."
Thanks Pato for the clip tip.

RadioBlogClub

This is a pretty powerful tool. RadioBlogClub let's you input the name of a song or artist and play the song directly. Straight up. After the song ends an apropriate playlist continues. If you're on the blogger scene the songs are embeddable, too, as seen below.

Musicovery

I like online jukebox/radio sites like Last.fm and friends. Musicovery is of the same idea, but I like their interface better. You place a dot anywhere you like on two axes, one going from dark to positive, the other from energetic from calm. You can choose hits, non-hits and dicovery mode, genre, as well as period of time. You can also see whats music is coming, and skip ahead to songs that catch your eye.

Lauren Hill Racist

I can't believe people believe this ****. Lauren Hill never said anything racist in any interview, MTV or otherwise. Seriously - if she did, it would be everywhere on the net. Here's a short article on the history of the rumor.

Please. Treat unsubstantiated facts as fiction.

"Claim: During an MTV interview singer Lauryn Hill said, "I would rather die/have my children starve than have a white person buy one of my albums."

Status: False.

Origins: In 1996 a caller to the Howard Stern show claimed Lauryn Hill of The Fugees made anti-white statements during an MTV interview, to the effect that she rather see her child starve than have a white kid buy her album."

Opus - Life Is Life

Last.fm

You need inspiration as to bands you didn't know you liked. You go to Last.fm, enter the name of a favorite band and the music starts to play.

Nancy Sinatra - These Boots Are Made For Walking

Trolle//Siebenhaar

You need to hear my man Pato Siebenhaar and girl wonder Ane Trolle - Trolle//Siebenhaar. Good shit.

Stevie Ray Vaughn - Little Wing

Probably my favorite guitar track of all time right there.

Djosos Krost

The Danish dub duo Djosos Krost is the music I will play the next time a foreigner asks me what bands we have in Denmark. Buy the full album if your into dub. You won't regret it.

The Proporsition

I recommend the movie The Proporsition. It's an atmospheric anti-western, set in Australia. Good acting. Nick Cave wrote the script and made the soundtrack together with the violinist Warren Ellis from Dirty Three.

Leonard Cohen

"Only one thing made him happy, and now that it was gone, everything made him happy."

Leonard Cohen



The above quote is from this excellent interview with Leonard Cohen, conducted by Norwegian Radio. You can read the transcript here.

No Mind

"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most."

Ozzy Osbourne

Drums

Steve Gadd, Dave Weckl and Vinnie Colaiuta plays the drums in this video skill clip.

Hvordan gør man egentlig det der fildeling?

Jeg er ret vild med BitTorrent-systemet. BitTorrent er en ny teknologi på fildelingsområdet, der tager over hvor Napster, Kazaa og lignende systemer faldt af. Du kan finde en god guide hos Piratgruppen, der hedder Kom igang med uTorrent.
