What do you think of a music blog (a la the one in my sig) that every AE member is allowed to join and contribute to? We could post albums from any genre, for each other and for any individual friends or places we'd like to drop links.

Absolutely epic idea, dude.

Give me your e-mails and I can add you to the blog. If you have any suggestions for lay out or want a different name, we can always edit/recreate the blog. Maybe someone could cook up some banner art?

I suggest we tag each post with the genre and maybe our name. I'm thinking we do just general genres for tags, without going too much into subgenres. So use "Metal" rather than "Black Metal", "Pop" rather than "Synth Pop", etc.

EDIT: Nevermind. I changed my mind. I realized I have less to contribute than i previously thought.

[Evergreen_forest]

Awesome.

I've always thought of you as like, an integral part of the AE music community. When you're around, at least.

Evergreen, I invited you. Check your e-mail. I think you put yourself down as Evergreen.

I think my first posts will be Alison's Halo's Eyedazzler and P.O.S.'s Audition, neither of which are on my laptop, so... that'll happen later.

I'm down send the e-mail to davidemslie@hotmail.co.uk

[Evergreen_forest]

Awesome, thanks man.

I'm about to make mah first post.

Edit: my first post is down. I hope it's alright to upload to megaupload as that is my personal favourite. If it's not good enough then I could also do rapidshare and have both links in each post I make.

Well, I like the same music pretty much everyone else likes.

But you probably have some albums that people will be interested in hearing. I'd be surprised if you only like stuff that other people here have got.

I might end up putting a bunch of albums that people already have by accident. I hope I don't and I'm going to go for some of my absolute favourites that I think most people here won't have but you never know.

Basically, my point is that you might as well join up and put some stuff up there Set. I'm sure you've got stuff to contribute.

Might it not be a good idea to go into the subgenres but not very specific ones. So we could say black metal, hard rock, or doom metal etc. but not symphonic black metal or funeral doom metal or sympho-blackened melodeath/ doom pop or whatever?

[FaultyClockwork]

I was still thinking just Metal, as we're going to be doing such a wide variety (probably) it might get confusing. I say we put it up for vote. :O

Limited Subgenres: 1
No Subgenres: 1

Also, megaupload is fine. I use it.

I added you, SC. Evergreen, I also gave you admin privelages. We should just consult each other before we do any major changes other than editing our own posts.

Btw, would you like to add last.fm charts in the side, like I did with Uhrwerkturm?

Awesome, thanks dude.

I tagged the album in my first post as jazz-fusion and jazz-rock because I think they are very different to just normal rock or jazz so I hope that's alright. If the vote turns out saying that everyone just wants the broad genres then I'll change it to rock or jazz.

edit: Yeah I think the last.fm charts thing is a great idea.

[FaultyClockwork]

Jazz-Fusion and Jazz-Rock seem acceptable to me.

[Björn Türoque]

Strike me interested. forkmachine@gmail.com

Set, you might as well join up and if you really don't have anything to contribute you don't have to.

Um... Yeah, I don't know what I actually have to upload but there should be some stuff I can find on my computer.

EDIT: We should probably do subgenres for metal, at least a bit. You know, the five or six main subgenres... Death metal, black metal, doom metal, power metal, etc... I only say this out of self interest because I only really like doom metal and want to avoid the stuff I don't like

Also, put my name down as Kazimeras, Destroyer of Virginal Innocence.

[FaultyClockwork]

You listen to some cool shit, I'm sure you can find something. Regardless, I added.

I just uploaded a Sonic Boom Six album.
