William
Palo Alto, USA
William from Palo Alto here. I will try to give you some perspectives on Music from the West Coast.
Winky
Seattle, USA
I'm Winky a US East Coaster trapped in Seattle - love music but I'm no High Fidelity obsessed 'boy lister' like Jimmy. I just like what I like and stop liking it when it becomes popular. Except of course the Grateful Dead! Go Gerry.
Stephen
New York, USA
I’m Steve, an ex-opera singer (I sang with Placido Domingo at his last gig), but don't hold that against me. I love all kinds of singing as long as the voice is beautiful or unique, and the singer doesn't just "phone it in."
Eric
Boston, USA
Greetings from Bean-town, where I will attempt to keep you up to speed with the latest music--from what's new in Universities (sadly more from the perspective of professors) to good live groups. And from someone who saw Cream, Janis Joplin, and the Band live, you'll get a more "seasoned" (as my kids would say) perspective on things - linking what's new to what's good in the rich history of rock and roll.
Jon
Austin, USA
I’m Spike, our man on the ground in … well … let's just say I get around. Dispatches seem to come regularly from hottest spots in NYC, Austin TX and Sydney. I’m probably too old to qualify as a 'hipster' but I seem to have proprietary channels that allow me to find ample bands that are on the verge of being the 'newest sexiest exciting-est' of the century. And I’m perhaps too big a fan of hyperbole in his writing style. Importantly, I have a day job.
Cathy
British Columbia, Canada
Chio
Mexico City, Mexico
Chio's love for music was planted by her father (who made her listen to everything from the American big bands of the 40's to 80s hip hop), re-shaped by her brothers (who send her playlists to cover the distance between Mexico and her current home, Sydney) and constantly nurtured and complemented by her friends. She allocates songs to moments and people. After all, what's a good memory without a good song?
Hunter
Richmond, UK
Hunter from Richmond, Surrey. A fan of all things music, from classic folks to modern Camden punk. Not a big fan of the Saturday Morning Canasta Club (those 6 months of Saturdays were painful).
Becci
Kingston, UK
Becci from Kingston, younger than most voices, that may come out in my music taste! I like all sorts.. occasionally dance stuff. So click for a rave.
Antoine
Tonneins, France
Welcome from France. Or from London. Or from any one of 50 cities I might be in on any given day. I love all music but will primarily focus on music from my home country and Africa.
Bianca
Amsterdam, Holland
Hi, I'm Bianca from the lovely city of Amsterdam. Music really makes my world go around - admittedly with a bit of a soft spot for mellow tunes: touching melodies, heartbreaking lyrics, goose-bump-creating voices. In this blog I'll let you know what little gems I've found in the past and which ones I'm discovering as I go...
Erik
Stockholm, Sweden
Greetings from hit factory Stockholm. I’m Erik, an eclectic music lover and wannabe keyboard player sharing thoughts on music scenes I love + happen to be into at the moment...
Pavel
Moscow, Russia
Privet from Moscow! I’m Pavel, and my love is Russian (Soviet?) bard music, which is rather not music but poetry. But that guitar does make me warm and cozy when it's -30C outside.
Jordi
Barcelona, Spain
Ricardo
Mundaka, Spain
This is Ricardo from Spain. At 10 I broke my piggy bank to buy Rolling Stones's "It's only Rock & Roll" LP. Haven't bought any more Rollings album since, but I still love music. Indie, cutting edge music, and also some oldies (well...punk, new wave, americana...). I'll try to suprise and provoke you. Enjoy the ride…
Lew
Anchorage, USA
Just the Blues from Alaska and maybe something new and different from my son or daughter. But mostly, the Blues.
Rip
North Haven, USA
I’ll share my discoveries of new music and throw in a lot of good Irish folk songs.
Jos
Auckland, NZ
D’day folks and thanks for stopping by. Will be offering new and old music, occasionally raiding one of my 45’s to bring you something special!
Magnus
Helsinki, Finland
Greetings from the North Pole. I promise, no Christmas songs!
Tiago
Sao Paolo, Brazil
Greetings from crowded Sao Paolo in the beautiful country of Brazil. My name is Tiago and I do not exagerate by saying that my first memories are of music. As I grew, it has always been an important part in my life - and I am positive it won't cease to be that way. In this space I will try to sort out the things I'm listening to and show the new or old discoveries I make, in Brazil or anywhere in the world.
Agustin
Sao Paulo, Brazil
I like to think of myself as a passionate guy about music. Listening to music is one of my biggest hobbies, I’m always looking for new bands and new rhythms from everywhere in the world. I’m that guy that when he listens to a good song anywhere (at the movies, at a supermarket, in a cab, etc), he writes down or memorizes the lyrics and then googles them to find out what band was singing and then gets more stuff from the band. I’m open to any type of genre, going from Pink Floyd, to Blackmore’s Night, to Jamiroquai. Check out my posts to find out more!
Diego
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Greetings from Buenos Aires. I love music, especially jazz and latin american popular music. But also spend my time listening to pop, rock, blues, etc When I was an adolescent I tried to play the guitar but after injuring many ears I decided to continue listening and stop disturbing. So I’ll just blog for now.
Matias
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Greetings from Argentina. I wonder what category would I fit into, since I'm into opera, jazz and heavy metal (in between you can insert tango, indie rock, death metal, mathcore, progressive metal, experimental metal, post-rock, stoner and some hard-rock, avant-garde, some trip-hop and DnB is also very very very good, and eventually hip hop and reggae; not a great fan of punk but I can bear some of it). So be prepared world.
Amalie & Henrik
