Music Blogging & Streampad

Music is not something I’ve ever really blogged about. I’m not super critical with music because I find that I have a different emotional reaction to different kinds of music, I enjoy that. I’ve recently been inspired and more specific with which music I want to hear. At the same time as I’ve started to think about specific music I was contacted by Dan Kantor. Dan developed a WP plugin called Streampad, an easy to use music streaming program, for blogs. As you well know, I’m a huge fan of early adoption and agreed to help beta test the product. At the bottom of this blog you’ll see a bar that makes it super simple to stream music that I’ve recently posted.

I don’t promise to post a song a day or even a song a month. However, when inspired I may post 5 in a day. Give it a try and please let me know if you have any issues playing the music so that I can report them to Dan and help make the service better and better.

To start, I’ll share the music that has been on my mind. In 2007 I went to Lollapalooza and saw Matt & Kim. They were not a mainstage show but it was one of the best of the weekend. Check out the songs linked below…play them from Stream pad.

No More Long Years

Yea, Yeah
