In the Blog
Blogs We like
Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney fame (featured in Shameless issue 8) is penning a blog over at NPR.com. Called “Monitor Mix,” Brownstein outlines her hopes for the blog as follows:
My hopes for Monitor Mix are that it will be descriptive as opposed to merely prescriptive. I would rather discuss and examine what it is that people actually consume than to tell you what you should be listening to. There are already plenty of great blogs and online resources that tell us what the best new music is or that unearth rarities and lost classics. Though I might occasionally review a piece of music, I would rather explore the contexts and the ways in which we enjoy or maybe even despise it.
Hooray for the mash-up of feminist musical crushes and blogosphere addictions. My whole life is like a picture of a sunny day…
