There’s this kid that lives over in Collinsville, Illinois, named Adam that’s been working on getting a rock’n'roll band together for quite a while now. Well, not too long ago Adam posted on the TIRC list that his band had recorded some songs for what they called the “Undead Surf Party” EP and was looking for a place to post them. I suggested making a page for his band on The Circuit and uploading the songs there, right? Well, he did… and you can visit that page and listen to the tracks here. At first I wasn’t all that impressed—I thought the songs were decent enough and they were definitely on the right track, and with a little work they could develop into a pretty cool local trashy rock’n'roll band. In other words, not a bad first effort but I was sorta witholding judgment until they’d seasoned a bit and I got to hear more. Well, the other day he sent me a new MP3 of his band doing a tribute to Stooges guitarist, Ron Asheton (who you probably heard passed away earlier this month) at one of their recent live shows, which turns out to be a pretty great version of “I Wanna Be Your Dog.” I thought it was a damned fine tune and thought I’d share it with y’all. So give it a listen below, and if you’d like to book the Unreliable Jerks, get in touch with Adam (a.k.a. “Dr. Flesh”) thru the aforementioned page on The Circuit.

Blip.fm
Tuesday, January 27th, 2009I’ve been digging the hell out of this site lately. Basically, if you haven’t checked it out and joined up yet, what you do is create a profile for yourself and then start “blipping” songs. The way it’s set up is very similar to Twitter (in fact, you can also set it to automatically send updates to your Twitter account each time you blip). You basically invite people to start following your blips (listed as “Listeners”) and then you seek out other people to follow (as “Favorite DJs”). And you give each other “props” whenever someone you follow blips a song you happen to really dig. You simply use the search function to search for a song you’d like to share with the rest of the world. The search function somehow searches all linked MP3s on the Web for your song, and if it’s out there (and indexable on search engines, naturally), it’ll find it. Now, this poses an obvious dilemma: Not all songs are obviously “out there” for you to find and blip. Well, there’s a way to fix that! If you have access to a server (like if you own your own domain, for example) you can simply create a directory and upload some of your favorite MP3s to it, and then go into the “settings” area, click “music” and then simply enter the URL of the song file, which will add it to their searchable database. Cool, huh? The only thing cooler than this is having your own podcast… which is why I’m not spending a whole hell of a lot of time uploading songs and then blipping them. There’s really no point in doing that if I’m doing my podcast. But for those of you NOT doing a podcast, it’s hella cool (and IMHO better more fun that Pandora or Last.fm), so check it out and start DJing.
