    POPS    The Olympic theme music is Leo Arnaud's "Bugler's Dream"
    enbar
    by enbar  8-18-2008   
     For some reason this question has been bugging me -- what's the origin of that little brass fanfare that we all (in the U.S.) recognize as the theme music to the Olympics? Turns out it was written in 1958 by composer Leo Arnaud as part of a film score.

     This looks way cool. When I have some real time to kill, I'm going to fool around with it.

    enbar
    by enbar  2-25-2008   
     Seems handy. A nice snappy interface that allows you to stream your music collection into any web browser anywhere. Some social features. Built with Flash. I haven't tried it; if you do, leave a comment. Discovered via Twitter.

    POPS    MOG: music discovery, networking, blogging
    enbar
    by enbar  9-22-2007    2
     Seems to be a sort of do-it-yourself music-blogging platform. Looks very cool. People post some great tracks.

    POPS    Pod-safe music galore (donationware) from Kevin MacLeod
    enbar
    by enbar  8-18-2007    3
     I found some really good stuff here. I think he makes pretty much all the music himself. All CC-licensed donationware. I haven't explored the non-audio parts of the site yet; it seems very extensive.

    POPS    Lene Alexandra's boobs: they're O.K.!!!!
    enbar
    by enbar  8-9-2007    1
     O.K.! So, she's hot. But besides that, she has a sense of humor, and this is hilarious. Alexandra describes this single as "a very deep and reflecting song about my favourite bodypart. Haha." Try to pay attention to the lyrics, they're funny.

    POPS    Music video: "Galang," by M.I.A. (a/k/a Maya Arulpragasam)
    enbar
    by enbar  7-18-2007    1
     London-born Sri Lankan painter, film and recording artist Maya Arulpragasam (nom de guerre M.I.A.) was Spin magazine's Artist of the Year in 2005. This single came out in 2003. Her music is controversial; her father was connected with the Tamil Tigers and she's expressed sympathy for the PLO. See http://answers.com/M.I.A.

    POPS    A.V. Club interviews Gwenno Saunders of the Pipettes
    enbar
    by enbar  6-29-2007   
     Confirms my impression that the Pipettes are actually an extremely cerebral outfit. From April 2007.

    POPS    Free early music recordings on classical guitar (lots)
    enbar
    by enbar  6-21-2007    1
     Jon Sayles, an amateur classical guitarist and lover of early music, has recorded a huge number of classic early melodies on his guitar and made all the recordings freely available in mp3 format on his site. Check it out. He is modest about his abilities, but his renditions are certainly competent and, I think, very sensitive and well done.

    POPS    Jeff Sharlet: "keeping it unreal" - the concept of "authentic" pop music
    enbar
    by enbar  5-16-2007   
     Interesting review by TheRevealer.org's Jeff Sharlet of a new book critiquing the concept of "authenticity" in popular music and culture. Most of what we think of as "authentic" (for example, Delta blues) has complex roots and has been carefully shaped for a market.

    POPS    Finetune: music discovery engine (like Last.fm, Pandora)
    enbar
    by enbar  5-2-2007    1
     Recommended for people who like Last.fm. I haven't tried it out yet. Looks promising, though. Anyone know anything about it?

    POPS    Dorothy Scott: acoustic music that changes lives
    enbar
    by enbar  4-14-2007   
     I normally don't make exaggerated claims about music, but this woman's performances in NYC in 1991-92 literally did change my life. I just discovered she's on Myspace.

    by enbar  4-13-2007    2
     I am sick of Windows Media Player and iTunes. Here's a little list I made of alternatives, but I'm looking for suggestions and recommendations. Any input is welcome.

    POPS    More music for kids that doesn't suck
    enbar
    by enbar  4-8-2007   
     I was raised on this kind of hippyish stuff -- folk songs, African music, traditional Americana, etc. Inspired by this clip: http://snurl.com/1fqeh

    POPS    Fifty songs for kids that aren't utter crap
    enbar
    by enbar  4-7-2007    3
     A handy list. I've always felt that most music marketed at children -- or, rather, marketed at parents as "stuff your children will like" -- insults the intelligence and taste of children and adults.

    POPS    "Configurable culture": music, capital, innovation and change
    enbar
    by enbar  4-6-2007   
     A clip from the DIY Media blog at Penn. Adam Sinnreich explores the current kerfuffles on music, law, piracy, "remix culture," etc. Interesting food for thought; worth a careful read.

    POPS    Medieval & Renaissance music - listen online
    enbar
    by enbar  4-3-2007    2
     Lots of music here; good selection. Unfortunately it's all RealMedia presentations. But the quality is decent. Update : The links in the clip won't work, unless you're at Columbia. However, if you go to the original page, many of the links further down on the page will work. I didn't notice when clipping that some of the .rm files are protected, but many others aren't.

    POPS    Stop-motion animated music video on a whiteboard
    enbar
    by enbar  3-26-2007   
     I clipped this before, but the video disappeared. This was posted by the creator and will presumably remain available. Amazing, low-tech, hand-drawn stop-motion video. Cool music too (from minilogue).

    POPS    Does music convey semantic meaning? Experiments suggest it does
    enbar
    by enbar  2-26-2007    1
     A cognitive psychologist has devised an experiment to determine whether our brains can respond to musical sounds with the same sort of cognitive "priming" that occurs when we hear words. The answer seems to be yes.

    POPS    Seeqpod: music search engine
    enbar
    by enbar  2-17-2007   
     Post Singingfish.com's demise, this may be useful. It appears to crawl podcasts and other mp3-containing sites. It has an in-page, embeddable Flash player, but it does not make it easy to download the files you find.

    enbar
    by enbar  12-30-2006   
     Hip-hop is the latest thing in the mean streets of Tbilisi and Kutaisi. Interviews with rappers Shavi Prinsi, Bedina, and others. Great photos.

    enbar
    by enbar  12-30-2006   
     I love this guy. I grew up listening to his music, then I kind of forgot about him for many years. Classic Americana.

     http://musicovery.com/ is a music discovery engine. Looks promising. Kind of like Liveplasma. All-Flash interface.

    POPS    High-quality, free, legal symphonic music
    enbar
    by enbar  11-11-2006   
     MP3s of Peabody Symphony Orch. performances (in-house orchestra of the Peabody Institute, Johns Hopkins's conservatory). Some great stuff to listen to here. Beethoven, Dvorak, and Brahms are all well represented.

    enbar
    by enbar  11-8-2006    1
     A music blog posts the Chicago / Solti interpretation of the Missa solemnis (op. 123). Download and listen -- it's bliss.
