Great music like great works of art will last forever. Great
music satisfies the artist as much as the audience. Great music
is in the ear of the creator as much as the hearer. Why is it
then that some great artists become wealthy some do not? Why do
some great artists have regular jobs and careers that have
little or nothing to do with music? Is it perhaps that music has
very little to do business and much more to do with art?
If you're an educator or a student of the arts, you might
consider this comment trivial. There's a community of artists
and patrons of the arts the world over who know the music
industry has very little to do with music and much more to do
with culture and political (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Let the Music Take you there |
| |
|
Even when you don't know where you're going and what you plan to
do with your music when you get there, you have to start
somewhere. Trading places with a superstar isn't going to
happen. Getting a "hit" record is about as likely as winning the
lottery.
In the work-a-day world, no one starts at the top. Why would
music be any different? More often than not, we begin at the
bottom. The music industry has always had an unspoken
development hierarchy. There has always been a night club
circuit. High schools and colleges have always been a stepping
stone to larger venues for emerging artist. Major concert
producers control entire geographic territories and high profile
venues. If you're lucky (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Creativity Makes People Unfomfortable |

There's a lot to be said for new beginnings. I love new
beginnings. One might say I live for new beginnings. There are
always new friends to meet, new places to discover, new projects
to develop. It's the challenge of mystery, the exciting promise
of a new adventure that draws me into the future. It's hard to
imagine why some people live their lives in a straight jacket,
afraid to move. At the very least, they conform to a self
imposed stereotype. Too afraid to express themselves; reluctant
to change, to try anything different, they expect others to do
the same.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Aliza "LSA" Grant Releases Bits And Pieces CD
Sacramento, CA--January 23, 2005--Aliza Grant, AKA LSA,
which means Life's Sole Apprentice, has always loved music and
she has taken every opportunity to create it. Aliza's new CD
Bits And Pieces is a multihued and exciting collection of
electronica and trip hop.
Initial ideas of producing drum and bass and the simple effect
of speeding up the tempo came by accident and fate took that
process full circle to a recording that clearly defines one of
the most popular genres of music worldwide.
LSA commented-"I named it Bits and Pieces because all the
tracks are snapshots of a lot of things I pie (read full article) |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Hustle Heads Take Hip-Hop Back To The Future With CD Duky
Dope Demo
Rochester, NY--January 23, 2006--The Hustle Heads were
conceived in 1993 in the back seat of a Mazda 626, which does
not get any more grass roots and natural than that. In a world
of media overkill and everyone trying to be something they are
not, the Hustle Heads prefer to push their music to new heights
and reach back to their roots to formulate the kind of hip-hop
that sets clubs on fire and gives the streets the rhythm and
soul that it so desperately yearns.
The new CD Duky Dope DEMO is the result of endless
gigging and countless hours to deliver what they term as Brown (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Apple 4 GB iPod Nano Black |
| |
|
This is a smaller, more affordable version of the original
ipod... And it's black. The very popular ipod comes with
features such as the touch pad adjusting. I think this is nice
compared to the conventional buttons. Being about as tall and
thin as a pencil this is a very small mp3 player. But dont be
fooled by the size. It can hold up to about 1000 songs and has a
14 hour battery life. Very good for someone that wants to listen
to a lot of music and have it be as convenient as possible. This
ipod runs for about $250. Only unfortunate thing about it is
that it doesn't play movies. If that is what you are looking for
then maybe the Apple 30 GB iPod with Video Playback Black would
be a better (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Cheap Electric Guitars |
| |
|
If you are looking for cheap electric guitars there is a lot of
choice out there. You can buy a cheap electric guitar from as
little as £70 and there are a number of brands making cheap
guitars.
Don't spend under £90 on a guitar
If you are buying your first electric guitar, I wouldn't
recommend spending under £90. Most of these guitars are built
with very cheap materials to bring the production costs down,
hence the retail price. The guitar's sound will be compromised
with this lower quality and the finish will also look a bit
rough. You will usually find that the guitar strings are the
cheapest ones you can buy, they will sound twangy.
The other downside of these cheap electr (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Why Using Noise Reduction Headphones With an MP3 Player Is
Better Than Earbuds |
| |
|
MP3 players and portable CD players usually come with the
standard "earbud" headphones. Earbuds fit into the ear like a
hearing aid and are lightweight and portable. Their advantages,
however, stop there. When it comes to the quality of the music
you are listening to, that quality can be greatly diminished due
to the inability of earbud headphones to filter out the noises
that you are not interested in listening to; such as the voices,
car engines, train noises, and barking dogs that may be all
around you when you are out in public.
One of the great advantages of MP3 players, such as iPods, and
portable CD players is that you can take them with you wherever
you go. Sometimes the very reaso (read full article) |

History of Hip Hop & Rap
In the early 1970s, the cultural movement of hip hop music was
born. Hip hop's fast paced music style is made of two parts; the
rhythmic delivery of rap and the use of instrumentation by a DJ.
Hip hop music also brought with it a fashion of its own, the
fashion helped to represent this newly created music. Hip hop
music has its roots from West African music and African-American
music. The first rap song to be put onto a vinyl record was,
"Rapper's Delight", a song by the Sugarhill Gang back in the
1970s. This is when block parties started becoming the norm in
New York City, which gave hip hop and rap the chance to explode
in popularity. Hip hop's instrumentation ca (read full article) |

| |
|
Whenever we talk about the meditation we imagine that meditation
needs the environment where no sounds and voices are present.
Meditation is a spiritual practice which is performed in order
to feel the inner soul. Meditation helps a person to feel the
existence of the universal spirit. Music plays an important role
in the practice of meditation. The Digital music has
various vibrational sounds which help in the process of
meditation. Generally digital music for meditation is light
classic, but it can differ from person to person. Whenever we
listen to the digital music for meditation we can feel the
