This months playlist is my first in a long time.
Social networking hit the music space a few years ago. Blip.fm & Last.fm are two ventures that have tried to address the difficulties around the social sharing of music. The problem is that DRM gets in the way. The song libraries are limited, finding quality links that work is even more spotty.
I find much of what I listen to from music blogs. They have become one of the primary ways that I discover new music. They are also a perfect medium to share music with others. However, I’m not an expert on music, more of a connoisseur, and while I don’t feel qualified to start a music blog I still want to share tunes I like with others.
So I’m going to get back to using opentape and try to keep it up once a month. Going forward, I’ll share a few songs each month. Some times I’ll try to organize them into a theme. Just trying to have a little fun, share some tunes, & get a little feedback from others about what they like. Maybe if I’m lucky, I’ll discover some new stuff through this effort, so please share your thoughts in the comments.
