SOURCES ARE REPORTING THAT SPOTIFY HAS BEEN IN TALKS WITH THE MUSIC LABELS AND HAS AGREED TO CUT DOWN THE FREE ACCESS, PUSHING USERS TOWARDS THE PAID MODEL. [*] WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT GOOGLE MUSIC FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND IT HAS ALL BEEN RUMORS. WE HAVE NEW RUMORS. THEY SAY THAT GOOGLE MAY WANT TO LAUNCH A CLOUD MUSIC SERVICE LIKE THE NEW AMAZON CLOUD DRIVE AND THAT THEY ARE IN NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE MUSIC LABELS. THOSE TALKS, HOWEVER, ARE REPORTEDLY NOT GOING ALL THAT WELL. OF COURSE THE POINT OF CONTENTION IS PRICING. THIS IS ALL SPECULATION UNTIL WE ACTUALLY GET TO SEE GOOGLE MUSIC.

WELL RUMOR HAS IT THAT THAT WHITE IPHONE MAY ACTUALLY COME OUT AT THE END OF THIS MONTH ON BOTH AT&T AND VERIZON. JUST 10 MONTHS LATER.

THE COMPANY PARTNERED WITH A SWEDISH COMPANY TO LAUNCH LOKAL-DEALEN, WHICH MEANS THE DEAL SHRINE. IT OFFERS UP TIME-LIMITED DEALS ON THINGS LIKE FOOD AND ENTERTAINMENT.

Battles are a fresh group from USA with a burgeoning cult following over in the US. A few select live appearances in the UK have created an excited and growing word of mouth following over here as well. Battles stand out from other bands making experimental music because 3 members, Ian, John and Dave, come from very successful, cult post metal, hardcore backgrounds, John drummed for Helmet and continues to drum for Tomahawk. In contrast Tyondai comes from a salubrious avant garde musical heritage.

New video for My People by the Presets. Directed by the one and only Kris Moyes. The Presets are Julian Hamilton (production/vocals/keyboards) and Kimberley Moyes (production/drums/programming). Trained artists in every regard, the pair met studying theory and music performance at Sydney’s esteemed Conservatorium of Music. In a sea of squares, the two stood out like jet black ink blots on a page. Music composition by day, dancing to the Pet Shop Boys, New Order and Acid House by night, they were perfectly primed to create a seamless combination of high and low culture to create a genre all their own. Beams was the answer.
