SHOUT, SHOUT, THESE BLOGS ARE FAR OUT . . .

Posted on April 29th, 2009 by ekko

1.  Another fellow covers blogger, Cover Freak, has a collection of  “I Will Survive” covers.  He’s got a lot of good ones, but he’s also missing this great one:

I Will Survive (R.E.M.) (Live) (YSI)

2.  Egg City Radio has a bunch of shows by the brilliant and dead Mitch Hedberg. If you’ve never heard him before, you need to.  One of the funniest standups ever.

3.  All Things Go has a mixtape up.  You’ll find Fleet Foxes, Starfucker, Animal Collective . . . A very good sampler of what’s hot in most of the blogs besides this one.  My blog is sucky and lacks taste.  Go check out what you need to listen to if you wanna be cool.

4.  Passion of the Weiss has an extraordinary post breaking down Jay-Z’s greatest album, Reasonable Doubt, revealing the sample sources.  Truly awesome.

5.  Aquarium Drunkard is giving away Avett Brothers tickets.

6.  Ryan is screening M. Ward’s cover of Roll Over Beethoven.

7.  Oh, and speaking of mixes, Motel De Moka can always be counted on for a nice one.  This post is no different.

    FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER.
  • FOLLOW ME ON TUMBLR http://www.tumblr.com/tumblelog/berkeleyplace WHAT THE HELL IS BERKELEY PLACE? "Berkeley Place" has been a blog since 2000.
  • Berkeley Place is also 6 blocks of Brooklyn real estate, emerging from Sackett St. and ending at Banana Hill, a small park that grows a foot each year from dog shit and the corpses of dead rats. Though its residents have gotten wealthier over the decades, Berkeley Place still houses folks of all backgrounds with interests in, well, everything.
  • WHAT THE HELL GOES ON HERE? Ekko reviews independent music, comic books, and whatever else interests him.
  • WHAT THE HELL IS INDIE MUSIC? An independent record label (or indie record label) is a record label operating without the funding of or outside the organizations of the major record labels. - Wikipedia.org That means they ain't in the RIAA, dude.

    HOW CAN I GET IN ON THIS?

    • Email me
      for the specifics but, basically:
    • I listen to all submissions of entire albums, not songs or compilations.
    • With rare exceptions I will not review material protected by the RIAA. So Sony, BMG, etc., don't start sending me crap. I'm not interested.
    • I don't listen to streams.
    • I won't read online comic-books. I may read .pdfs. I will read all hardcopy submissions.
    • I will review only submissions that I can recommend. I'm not here to do negative reviews.
    • Contact me to tell me to remove something. I'll take it down within 24 hours.
