Music Reborn

Der Lesetipp für heute und den Rest der Woche: das Wired-Magazin hat eine Reihe von meist kurzen Profilen von frischen und wirkungsvollen Bewegungen in allen möglichen Aspekten der Musikkultur online gestellt. In Music Reborn geht es u.a. um digitale Albumcover, Last.fm, Youtube und eMusic.
Außerdem geht es um die Wirkung von Musik aufs menschliche Gehirn und umgekehrt, warum die Beatles nicht auf iTunes sind, und den Einfluss von Pitchfork Media:
The filters we traditionally depended on – music magazines, radio stations, music video channels, even the recommendations of a trusted record store clerk – have diminished in influence enough to give a player like Pitchfork room to operate. Pitchfork is a small site: The traffic it draws is too tiny to be measured by Nielsen//NetRatings. But like the indie bands that are its lifeblood, Pitchfork has found its own way to thrive in an industry that is slowly being niched to death: It influences those who influence others.
