POP

Tervetuloa juhlimaan 60. niin & näin -numeron ilmestymistä Helsinkiin ravintola Kuudenteen Linjaan (Hämeentie 13, sisäänkäynti Kaikukatu 4) tiistaina 24. maaliskuuta 2009 kello 21–03. Koska lehti on 15-vuotias ja 1/09:n suurteemana on pop, painate julkaistaan kaikkivoivan rytmimusiikillisesti. Paitsi julkkarimme, tilaisuus on osa helsinkiläistä rockelämää rikastuttanutta Club Friction -klubien sarjaa. Lavalle nousevat Heikki Kovalainen & Dieselkitara, Witherspoon, [...]

The band Marillion has been using p2p tactics for some time. The new album Happiness is the Road was mainly financed by the fans by pre-ordering the album in a special version: if one made the pre-order before March 2008 one’s name will be included in the album credits.

Six best guitar solos

In no particular order: Trevor Rabin, Yes (demo): “Love Conquers All” – the intro is amazing, the timing perfect, goosebumps every time Edward Van Halen, Van [...]

Magnatune

Kokeilin huvikseen ostaa musaa Magnatunelta. Oli mielenkiintoinen ja miellyttävä kokemus. Kun on valinnut levyn, Magnatune kysyy, paljonko haluaa maksaa. Puolet menee suoraan artisteille. Sitten saa latausohjeet ja osoitteen: saa ladata missä muodossa haluaa (wav, mp3, ogg…) ja niin monta kertaa kuin haluaa. Kuin raikasta vettä piratismihysteria-aavikon jälkeen. Ja sokerina pohjalla: magnatune kehottaa lähettämään latausosoitteen ja [...]
