After 17 years of music journalism, I've decided to scale back so greatly as basically quit.
This means two things:
1) The Web site will be updated less often and the content will change and
reduce. That also means there will be less emails through this group
2) If you are in the habit of regularly sending me CDs expecting a review, you
can no longer expect one.
There are two main reasons I am doing this:
1) I need to devote more time more time to my schoolwork in order to complete my
Master's degree in mathematics
2) My passion for radio (college radio and
Internet radio) has outpaced my passion for music journalism. As many of you
know, I've been doing broadcasting on the Web and AM/FM since the late `90s.
Print and even Web media has no comparison to the immediacy and audience
connection provided by broadcasting. I am currently involved with four Internet
radio stations (check out www.radio-freedom.com)
and one college station. Much of this site is
going to migrate to support my broadcasting efforts. If you are publicist, I do
weekly live interviews on one Internet show (check out the
archive) and I can and do promote tours passing through the Detroit
area. I always send out playlists. I hope as many of you possible will somehow
be interested in what I continue to do in broadcasting.
