My new podcast, Radio.Speljamr, is now officially open for business. The show will be about idependent music and will feature plenty of music from Buffalo/Rochester bands. The show will not be genre specific, but will instead try to cover as much different music as possible. If you are an independent musician and would like to find out how to get your music played on this and other podcasts, please email me at radiospeljamr@gmail.com.

Radio.Speljamr Vol.1, No.1 is now online.

A few weeks ago I finished reading Neil Pearts’ “Traveling Music - The Soundtrack to My Life and Times.” It was an enjoyable read allowing one to tag along with Neil on one of his travel adventures while listening to him discuss his various choices of listening pleasure. Some might find his descriptions of the passing landscape to be a bit dry, but the real gold nuggets were his views on the music business and his favorite artists.

Because I enjoyed this exploration through Neil’s musical preferences I decided that maybe I should do the same on this blog. So, I’ve added a new category called ‘Programming Music’ and I will soon start exploring some of my own musical inspirations. It’s ‘Programming Music’ because over the last few years 90% of my listening time has been spent while programming. So look for some upcoming musical diversions.
