And today I heard one of the most useless -- an interview with a British
singer who spontaneously composes her half-spoken songs in the studio.
Hm, I guess that's why she has yet to come up with a hook, and why her
‘music’ is ripped from Motown and disco records and an old TR-81 drum
machine. And also why it is crap.
Every time NPR does one of these things with a just-got-signed or
just-came-overseas musician I write them e-mails practically begging
that they actually do some legwork and find some indie artists who are
actually making great music that SHOULD be popular, rather than check
out which promo CD came from RCAWarnerUniversalSonyAOLViacomEtc. and
schedule an interview. (I'm more polite, though.) No one has ever
returned my e-mails; I guess working at an NPR affiliate station my
opinion doesn't count.
... and stay tuned as NPR interviews a big movie star you're sick of
hearing from for the eighteenth time this week... tonight it's Clint
Eastwood and Ben Affleck!

TGIF. No news for me on the weekends. :D
