Got cool, free curated music and album art?

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

At Groove Labs we want to give a shout out to the people at netbloc.com for being innovators and pioneers in curating great music and art. Michael’s site curates collections of music and album art from independent artists from across the globe.  In addition to offering a collection of great new music and art he offers insights into the bands and links for more information.  His latest release net bloc volume 26 (N.E.T.A.U.D.I.O) features 11 tracks of music.  Michael contacted us about including the major Major song “Chinese Drop” and we happily obliged.  Sometimes in life the best things are free, but most people just don’t know about them.  If you get the chance, click on the link and download this netbloc.  It’s cool, free and represents the future when it comes to discovering new independent music.  If you like what you hear, then support the artists by buyig a CD, t-shirt or making a donation.  While free is cool and all, it still won’t pay for the butter.  Make it so.  Enjoy!

took some images from a panning camera filming a sea of people rocking to a 2007 Wembley arena show featuring muse.  the photos include a couple of slivers of action and then crops and image adjustments added to them for effect.  the piece titled “Vertical Fan” will be a pen and ink.  Hope to take the image to stencil and stain on silk.
