Well, here goes my first post of what is going to be my blog.
I was reading an article about a project by Alan Lomax called Global Jukebox and I thought it was interesting because I want to do something a little bit similar to this project.
In this interactive educational computer project called Global Jukebox, all of Alan Lomax's work on folk music (5,000 hours of sound recordings, 400,000 feet of film, 3,000 videotapes, and 5,000 photographs) would be digitalized and made available for free streaming and later some of the music would be sold as CD's or digital downloads.
My project is about music too but containing every kind of music, including those ones I don't like. My idea is to try to connect all kinds of music throught collaborations, influences and even copying. In my concept, every piece of music has some kind of connection with another piece of music, no matter how faint it is. Along with the research, I would be writing all the discoveries in this blog.
I would like to comment on every singer/group ability but since I am not a experienced trained musician, my remarks would be of an average person who once tried to be a musician. As some people say, those who are good play, those who aren't, criticise.
