Bandcamp – A Great Way To Sell Your Music

Music Fanatic — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 16:50:12 +0000

I’ve recently come across Bandcamp.com and I’m impressed with the service it provides for artists/bands (and for music fans for that matter.)
It lets bands sell their music as downloads so that the bands themselves keep all of the profit from those sales. Screw the record labels. It’s the artists that should be making money [...]

The Hype Machine’s Music Blog Zeitgeist of 2009

The lists were compiled based on how often the artists and albums were mentioned on the music blogs on this list (no, MusicByDay.com isn’t on the list but we’re not nearly as focused on new music [...]

Podcast #066: Phish, Best of Big Cypress Improv

Music Fanatic — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 03:01:07 +0000

Our illustrious Mr. Whitperson was feeling a bit under the weather today, but he had some time to put together a rocking podcast to pay homage to the 10 year anniversary of Phish’s Big Cypress NYE2000 celebration down in Florida, easily one of the most important concerts of the decade. Love it.

I’ve mentioned here a few times before how much I like AmazonMP3 (I think it’s way better than ITunes) for purchasing music downloads. The selection is outstanding and I like that the mp3 quality is better than it is on ITunes and that you don’t have to use ITunes as your player (I prefer Winamp) [...]

Live Blog: Gov’t Mule @ The Beacon Theatre 12/31/09

Music Fanatic — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 21:56:03 +0000

Well I’m going to give it a shot again this evening. All the standard disclaimers apply – I’m going to get songs wrong (or more likely, not be able to identify them) particularly during the 2nd set. Please do not take the ‘live’ list as gospel. This time I’m going to avoid using my phone until I walk into the Beacon to reserve as much battery-power as I can. Pictures will be added once I’m home from the show. Have a happy and safe NYE everyone!

Next day update: pictures at the bottom of the post.

Setlist: Phish @ AAA, Miami, FL 12/30/09

Music Fanatic — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 21:10:52 +0000

Phish played another amazing show last night in Miami. The third night of the four-night run will go down in the record books as Phish played their 242nd unique song this year, which breaks the previous record of 240 in 1998. The band is clearly feeling confident as they end a super strong 2009 tonight. I’m jealous for my friends that are there attending, but thanks to the streamers I’ve gotten to catch a lot of this action live, including the absolutely nasty “Back on the Train” that went down last night. Kudos, Phish. You’re officially back. Like, 1000% back.

Setlist: Phish @ AAA, Miami, FL 12/30/09

Set 1: Soul Shakedown Party, Runaway Jim, Jesus Just Left Chicago, Dixie Cannonball^[1], Stealing Time From the Faulty Plan, Corrina, What’s the Use?, Tela, Gone^[2], Rocky Top, Chalk Dust Torture, David Bowie

Set 2: Sand, The Curtain With, Lifeboy, Back on the Train^[3] > Wading in the Velvet Sea, Hold Your Head Up > Love You^[4] > Hold Your Head Up, Free, Boogie On Reggae Woman, Run Like an Antelope^[5]

Encore: Frankenstein^[6]

[1] Phish debut
[2] Debut
[3] Extended jam with hints of Limb by Limb
[4] Audience member Rich on vac
[5] Multiple Boogie On teases
[6] Page on keytar

Notes: Gone was a debut, and Dixie Cannonball was a Phish debut. Back on the Train featured an extended jam including hints of Limb by Limb. During Love You, Fishman mentioned Trey’s announcement on December 28, 2009 that it was Fishman’s last vacuum solo “of the aughts,” so he announced that he needed “someone dressed like me” to do it, brought audience member Rich onstage to do the solo, then gave him the vac! Antelope included numerous Boogie On teases. Frankenstein featured Page on keytar. Corrina was played for the first time since February 24, 2003 (100 shows) and Tela was played for the first time since November 24, 1998 (235 shows). This gig featured ten songs not previously performed in 2009 inclusive of two debuts; 2009 features more unique songs (242) than any other year in Phish’s history, beating out 1998 by 2… so far!

2010 Album Releases I’m Looking Forward To

Music Fanatic — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 18:06:32 +0000

Instead of looking back at 2009 on New Years Eve, I’m going to look forward to 2010. These are the album releases (whether the release date is set in stone or only rumored) that I’m looking forward to.

Stereogum’s 50 Most Downloaded MP3s Of 2009

Music Fanatic — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 16:23:32 +0000

The purest year-end music list would be a playcount of the tunes you listened to most, and not the carefully sculpted, self-consciously eclectic 1-10s we end up reading. We know you’re as sick as we are of parsing critics’ picks, so here’s at least one countdown where you won’t find Animal Collective, Grizzly Bear, or Dirty Projectors in the Top 10. That’s because the following fifty songs are ranked via the number of times someone clicked and downloaded them from our servers, and nothing else. It’s a list that finds Julian Plenti feeling pretty good about himself. Same goes for Rain Machine, Asobi Seksu, Handsome Furs, and our CMJ lineup. Of course, only you can tell us how many times you actually played the tunes after they left our nest.

“I Saw Her Standing There” – The Beatles

Music Fanatic — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 03:13:30 +0000

This is my 6th entry in my continuing series on each of The Beatles 186 original songs released from 1962 through 1970. This song, “I Saw Her Standing There,” is my favorite of them thus far.
It’s a great song, but even if it weren’t a great song it would be notable for being the [...]
