| What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). |

| Playing With Fire / Kevin Federline | |
|
Aren't this joker's fifteen minutes up yet? Then again, thanks to
shows like
The
Soup, we can have him to kick around for years
to come. I do wonder, though, with his professional and
personal... umm... lack of success, if maybe he should switch to
the blues.
(Full disclaimer: I did not listen to a single second of this album. And I suggest you do the same.) |

| The Audience's Listening / Cut Chemist | |
|
I'm hardly the target audience for hip-hop, so when I noticed this
album I wasn't expecting much. Which I don't mean as a value
judgment. In fact I mean it as a lack of judgment judgment; that is,
that I lack the basis to judge this particular genre. (We'll leave my
right to judge other genres for another time.)
Anyway, I was surprised and impressed when I put on The Garden, and then followed up with Metrorail Thru Space; both are upbeat and melodic and not at all what I associate with hip-hop. On the other hand, What's the Altitude and Storm are more what I did expect. Not my kind of music, although I'll give them a few more listens to be sure. Which I guess is my point, that there's enough variety here to get me to take notice. Which I hope doesn't screw up the demographic too much. I haven't ruined the curve this bad since high school math... |
