I Write About Music
Hi, I run two sites about music. And they're both great. Get in touch. I might even bother to reply.
I am passionate about music. I am dead serious about music. I listen to music. I watch music. I read about music. I talk about music. I buy music. So it makes sense that I write about music.
Styles covered: anything with a pulse, so: Americana, folk, rock, heavy metal, dance, funk, jazz, country, punk, bluegrass, rockabilly, post-punk, new wave, blues, noise, hard rock, surf, shoegaze, electronica, indie, avant-garde, pop, jam bands, (neo)-classical, Krautrock, power pop, experimental, post-rock, dream pop, minimal, industrial, vaudeville, singer-songwriters... The ability to play the music in a live setting is considered to be a big plus.
No reggae or modern day R&B, no fucking Auto-Tune. Tried it, hated it.
Note: my address for sending me stuff can not be found here. It will be supplied to you after I have contacted you. I like some privacy, old fashioned I know.

With this set, they prove that longevity against all odds is the way to go if you believe in your art. Longtime followers will appreciate the treasure trove of previously unreleased material and the uninitiated can make up for their oversight.
He is never in a rush, going for mid-tempo most of the time, and when he decides to go a little faster like he does in the rockers Do You Feel and Blackberry he is still very much in control.
A good cover either replicates the original, which could be boring and superfluous, or it could take the song apart and put it together again in a brand new way.
As per usual Robinson manages to surprise with this unrelenting bunch of songs, whether it is the bluesy slow death of fruit basking the sun or the vision of Hindu deity passing him by in the street.
