"No."
"Is your name Harry?"
"Is your name perhaps, Rumpelstiltzkin?"
"Some demon has told you that! some demon has told you that!" screamed the little man, and in his rage he ran home and wrote "Nookie."

wes, ross, and myself have set up protools and a beta 57 microphone in an old apartment right near the charles bridge. this is where i am connecting with the darkness. some days are explosive others just plain heavy from the gothic aesthetic of this city in general. we have gone to the other side a few times with absinthe to discover the unknown. as it seems the unknown is quite demanding these days.

But Matos, et al, you make good points. I had, in fact, looked at yours, partly b/c I enjoy your ILM comments. I mean, obviously, I've looked at blogs from time to time prior to this, but there's no question that I went in this time still hoping to find something a bit more, I dunno, substantive. Readable, even.
And I'm not trying to be a snob about it, but aside from the perpetually-pitched Fluxblog, which has a simple but effective mission, that wasn't what I found, really. Maybe there IS a ton to be gleaned from them, but right now, they feel very 'needle in a haystack', by and large, and kind useless to me.
All that said, Web Nymph is a pretty good place to survey what's happening on the mp3 blogs.

Anyway, yeah, Benn Loxo Du Taccu has been gaining popularity over the past several months - the word of mouth is getting around. It was nominated for best African blog in the Bloggies, which I imagined raised its profile quite a bit. I'm very glad that it exists - I would love for more mp3 blogs focusing on specific non-Western countries to pop up because it's such a great resource and use of the format.

It's a bit like posting examples of critics "jizzing themselves over hip-hop" that are all from Source, XXL, and King.

It isn't - it's purely to make fun of people who think indie rock matters. If you ever saw the "this Shins song will change your life" scene in Garden State, the blog makes more sense.

Screw context, screw biography—DSR have been around too short a time for either to matter. What is important is that they have a sense of adventure, romance, belief and intelligence, of art, a desire to explode preconceptions and exceed expectations that marks them out way above and beyond any of their perceived peers."

That's an actual Pitchfork review, so maybe it's partly just their style, not a statement on whether or not indie rock "matters" (whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean).
