Music Blogs: Don’t Kick This Addiction

Music Blogs: Don’t Kick This Addiction

By Ryan Van Etten on 07/02/2010

Last month I wrote about five tactics for finding music blogs. Let’s revisit this addiction with three more massive resources and a hit of punk rock. 1. MOG Music Network is a network of music blogs integrated with the social music community MOG. An estimated 800+ external music blogs are now part of MMN—including ours—so MOG it up.

Sleigh Bells Breaks Out 11 Electro Rock “Treats”

Sleigh Bells Breaks Out 11 Electro Rock “Treats”

By Ryan Van Etten on 05/28/2010

Sleigh Bells mixes heavy dance beats and lo-fi distorted guitars, produced/performed by Derek Miller, with the hi-energy vocals of female singer Alexis Krauss. This Brooklyn-based duo is blasting earbuds with their debut album, Treats.

Bay Area Beatmaker Freematik Makes Album with iPhone

Bay Area Beatmaker Freematik Makes Album with iPhone

By Ryan Van Etten on 03/17/2010

Freematik (Tom Freeman) is a San Francisco-based hip hop music producer. But outside of his fully-equipped studio, he is armed only with his iPhone and imagination. For months he’s been experimenting with apps that let him make beats and riffs on the go. The iPhone’s limitations forced him to improvise and he found himself feeling “more creative than he had in while.”
