BCB music shows web 1.0 and web 2.0

In the BUN era (see Untitled Noise 1 year on) our music shows’ individual websites and web 2.0 presence was the only way find out what we were all up to, and it was not easy to keep up to date with all shows.  In the SUN era this blog has brought things together nicely in a hub, but our original tentacles still spread healthily.  So I thought it would be a good idea to fill you in on what we have out there on the internet.   Here’s what I know of, starting with general BCB stuff, then working through the week (I may modify this entry if and when I get more information):

Spotify knows you still listen to Limp Bizkit and now so does everyone else.

Snooping on each other is common ground nowadays, blessed as we are with the ability to know what our friends/siblings/that weird guy from primary school are all doing every minute of everyday thanks to Facebook. Now Spotify has opened up the realm of snooping to epic and potentially humiliating proportions with its new ‘social’ feature, purpose built to let us pass judgement on our friend’s music tastes. Jonathan from Spotify optimistically tells us its designed to allow users to share music between each other. Pah. It’s much more about being able to discover that that friend you have, who purports to listen only to neurofunk, darkcore and nitzhonot (which for those of you that don’t know, is a crossover between Goa trance and uplifting trance that emerged during the mid-late 1990s in Israel*) quite clearly thinks the new album of Lady Gaga remixes is pretty great.
