2 weeks ago I visited a concert at the «Schleusenkrug». Bandname: «Lota Red». Style: Rock-A-Billy-Punk-Country-Folk. It was like a chainreaction. Bang. Boom. Bam. To make a long story short: Best first concert in 2007 for me. And a warm welcome back to my long lost favorite kind of music so I bought the CD «Close To The Sun» right away (follow the link and there will be the track clickable/playable).
Kick Ass’, Hellbent, Hotrodded, Glam-Rockabilly! Five guys from Berlin mixin’ their roots in ‘Rockabilly’ with influences from Country, Punk, Garage and anything else they can find to produce a sound that can only be described as ‘LOTA RED - The Big Noise From Berlin…
Ay, they have gig next Saturday (21 Apr.) at the Pirate Cove / Tempelhofer Ufer 1, Berlin / doors open 9pm. Don’t miss it!
First I was happy with last.fm. It analyzes what I play via iTunes, makes musical suggestions, post my current playing song info to my blog (not working right now and I don’t know why. no time to check/fix it). anyway. the site/service itself is in my opinion not really a plus for me. no really new music for me. all of the suggestions I already knew and had mostly in my archive.
then there was light: iLike. early beta. web 2.0 (harhar). well, no API for putting the played tracks to a site (via rss or whatever), yet. maybe later? — but again: early beta (and if you take a look at the url not even a beta more a alpha). The best: musical suggestions to new music — more or less unknown artists — AND free (legal) downloadable mp3s. free. music. and the suggestions fit 90%. i like it. add the rss feature and I’ll love it.
UPDATE:My «What I’m listening to» is working again. Check it out, new music, unknown artists.
