Eric Maynard: musica collection of music I find worth commenting on(Untitled)- May 31, 2002 Linda M, This is Linda M. Linda M, This is Linda MPop - Great lyric-driven catchy pop Best of Emergent Music I quote Gary R. "She's a real diamond in the rough." and chris_mahan captures my own first impressions: "A mix between Morissette and McLaughlin"http://radio.weblogs.com/0100364/categories/music/2002/05/31.html#a309 NPR : GuitaristSongwriter John Mayer- May 28, 2002 "The 24-year-old guitarist delivers a smoother, more smoldering sound than your average rocker -- in fact, you could say his music is for squares." I'm a square then... If you haven't given this young gentleman a listen to yet then DO it. I've love that 'smooth, soldering sound' as described in the NPR interview linked above. The tension in Mayer's music is just incredible. I first heard Why Georgia about a month ago on DirecTV's DMX 'Progressive' channel..http://www.npr.org/programs/atc/features/2002/may/mayer/index.html (Untitled)- May 22, 2002 Clem Snide, Moment In the Sun.

I ripped a CD onto my hard drive and threw away the physical disk. I couldn't find the case for it, and a caseless CD just seemed to be more trouble than it was worth. It's the first time I've ended up with purchased music only in the form of bits on my hard drive. On the other hand, the record company's position is probably that I own the CD, not the music itself, so I shouldn't have done what I did. Tough. It's a new world, you folks who work at the labels; you'd better get...http://radio.weblogs.com/0100364/categories/music/2002/05/21.html#a291 Smells like Teen Spirit- May 15, 2002 "But Cobain's music and lyrics confronted and changed me. They forced me to see a world I had previously avoided, mainly because my friends and I never walked that direction. Cobain was the first writer from my own age group to capture my attention." I can relate on so many levels with the author of this article on Salon about the late Kurt Cobain and Nirvana's success in the early '90s.http://www.salon.com/ent/masterpiece/2002/04/15/teen_spirit/index3.html RSS Downloads without Radio- May 7, 2002 >>> I've run across a couple more bugs in Radio Userland's code for enclosures. It chokes if the URL for the enclosure has spaces in it -- which is true for a lot of mp3 files. On Mac OS X (and I assume Mac OS 9 although I hanven't checked) it also chokes on filenames longer than 31 characters. In the meantime we're working on our own alternative RSS download engine so that interested users can get the best of Emergent Music downloaded onto their hard drives overnight without buying...http://radio.weblogs.com/0100364/categories/music/2002/05/07.html#a270 (Untitled)- May 1, 2002 The badge on the right is, IMHO, very cool.
