Pixieguts and Jim Robson - A tweet I followed.

 Sometimes you click on something and instead of moving on you hang around and follow it through -

@Pixieguts Track release: Again by @JimRobson featuring my vocals, our first collaboration. http://bit.ly/JimRobsonAgain

I recommend you go and have a listen to this track. 

Voice: Marie Craven pixieguts.com
Music: Jim Robson reverbnation.com/jimrobson

Bugger it I think I must get this 'brainworm'.

Revolectronic Society™ - This week's FAV

Basically this is a music collective, that in my humble opinion (I must be more humble and moderate my opinions because I have been accused of being arrogant and unprofessional) - Bollocks - I think this is one of the best 'collaborations' out there, if not the best. 'Save It' is very, very solid and (without offending - you see I'm trying hard to be...) grown up - in an on the edge sort of way.

This is what is said on ReverbNation:
Revolectronic Society is an open group of musicians and artists who've come together with unique styles of influence and have collaborated to create the most unusual electronic music. Society is diverse, and so are we. Revolectronic Society welcomes anyone who would like to join in! Share your talents with us, whatever it may be!




I don't count beats and I can't be arsed to do so, I have no idea what genre this belongs to and quiet frankly I don't give a shit - It is on my player and I love it!

The Raven - Review


If you like luscious strings the track  One Last Time is well worth listening to...but pop over to Myspace and listen to 'Devils Path' for a darker look into this varied collection of tracks.

The smashing of styles and genres together creates an interesting creative, solid product. I love the string, drum, guitar (actually all) production on these tracks - even though each song has a different mood the whole thing is cohesive and very listenable.  Great stuff.

From ReverbNation:
 

Davey Strehler started The Raven at the age of sixteen, while he was living in sunny Ft.Lauderdale,FL. Between 2007-2008, Davey focused on imporving his musical skills, in Voice,Guitar,Bass and Drums. The band went through numerous members, yet none felt the same passion and drive to provide the band with the dedication needed. In 2009, Davey released the long anticipated E.P through Danse Macabre Records.

If you don't like it lump it

I have had a lot of support from the readers of this blog with my stance regarding the pap we are being forced to listen to (see http://bit.ly/ckMo3q ).

I am more than happy to be criticized but make it personal and I will simply tell you to f---k off and call you a c--t.  If you disagree then make a comment. If you think I am arrogant then fine but I have my own opinion and I will defend it!
