(Presence Crossing by Pat Rocha)
Usually these mp3 blog weekend wrapups are devoted to posts with mp3’s. But I love an anti corporate mp3 blog spiel as much as the next guy. Here’s The Post-Rockist trying to work his way through feelings of bitterness, jealousy, boredom and hostility towards the music blogging scene.
Nine Bullets has something new from the Appalachian new grassy group Medford’s Black Record Collection.
Things I’d Rather Being Doing has a great interview with Big Dipper.
IckMusic has the AAA pop stylings of Jon Regen.
I don’t fully understand the hoopla around of the Karen Dalton’s of the world. Why explore lost acts from the 60’s when we have so many undiscovered treasures from the present? Anyone’s Guess shares with us the music of NYC based singer songwriter Sharen Van Etten and her homemade music/packaging. The song “Picking Up Rocks” is worth the trip over there all my itself.
Lines Through Lines has two songs and a middling review of the new record from The Weepies.
