Major Update Tomorrow

As some of you may already know, I spent the majority October working on uploading material for my other blog in celebration of the blogger community's Halloween Countdown. During that time I managed to put together two lists of blogs offering Halloween treats, but my work on these projects didn't leave me much time to update the blogroll itself.

Tomorrow I will be making extensive changes to the list. Unfortunately, several blogs have been deleted since then. I will update the urls if they have moved, and remove them from the list if they haven't. There will be a number of new blogs appearing on the list, and a few old blogs that I've only recently discovered.

I also plan to replace the grazr widget at the top of the page. The grazr widget is great, yet it limits me to including only 50 blogs, and I've also recently been made aware of better methods of sharing unlimited blog updates. It may take some time for me to implement this change, but it will definitely be worth the wait. I hope you all will enjoy the changes and additions to come. As always, please leave me feedback to let me know what's working, what isn't, and what could be improved.

I had intended to put a list of Halloween related albums up much sooner than this, and wanted it to be much larger than this list, but I got carried away with uploading albums for my other blog - http://digitalmeltd0wn.blogspot.com I suppose it's better late than never though.

New URL for the TWILIGHTZONE! blog

I'm happy to report that RYP is up and running with a new TWILIGHTZONE! Unfortunately, it looks as if the old blog is gone for good though. I'm happy to see that RYP isn't giving up as so many other bloggers have done when their blogs were removed. When I posted the pages that google had cached, I had forgotten about the download links being in the comments, so I would like to apologize for that. Thanks to those of you who pointed that out to me. I'm going to attempt other ways to access the comments page, and I will let you all know if I have any luck. Here is the new url for the TWILIGHTZONE!:

TWILIGHTZONE! http://twilightzone-rideyourpony.blogspot.com/

Post Concerning the Removal: http://twilightzone-rideyourpony.blogspot.com/2008/10/im-just-rather-speechless-but-for-your.html

TWILIGHTZONE! music blog down...

I've just received terrible news. One of the best music blogs in existence, TWILIGHTZONE! has been removed. This is a huge blow to the music blog community. For those unfamiliar with the blog, it was the best resource for rockabilly/psychobilly and garage rock on the internet. To the best of my knowledge, all of the music shared there was out of print or otherwise unavailable. It makes me wonder how much of a chance other blogs have of staying up if the TWILIGHTZONE! has been deleted by blogger. RYP, if you happen to read this, please let us know something. If there is anything I can do to help you out I would be more than willing to do so, and I'm sure many others would also. I know of other places that you can host your blog where you wouldn't have to worry about it being taken down. If any of you hear any news as to why TWILIGHTZONE! was removed, or hear from RYP, please let me know. I will keep you all updated on news concerning this matter as soon as it is made available to me.

In the meantime, here is a the last cached version of TWILIGHTZONE! that was saved by google: link
I would recommend grabbing whatever you can in case it really is gone for good.

Featured Blog - Idle Minds Inc.

Featured Blog: Idle Minds Inc. I had the pleasure of discovering Idle Minds Inc only a couple of days ago, but I've been overwhelmed during that time by the amount of treasures ready for the taking on this fantastic blog. The first thing I've noticed is that one of my favorite experimental groups, The Residents, are featured extensively on IMI, which certainly isn't a bad thing. There are many Residents albums that I've stumbled across, which I have yet to see on any other blog, and a few that I wasn't even aware that existed. In addition to the numerous Residents albums, there are a host of other experimental albums, and although they may be obscure, they do not fail to stimulate with their distinct and innovative music. IMI isn't afraid to genre-hop either. You never know what type of music lurks around the corner, but you can rest assured that it will be good.

Comments Deleted

I deleted the majority of the comments that were left on the main blogroll post. There were close to 300 comments, and it was becoming a rather difficult task to go through the comments and figure out which blogs I had checked and which ones I hadn't. I finally managed to make it through the entire list and added all of the blogs that met the required criteria. The only comments that I did not delete were those that were not requests to be added to the blogroll.

If you are a blog owner who posted a comment requesting to be added, but your blog still isn't on the list, then it's either because I missed it, or it didn't meet the necessary requirements. Feel free to submit it again. I will reply to all requests to be listed, whether they meet the criteria or fail to.

Featured Blog - Star Maker Machine

Featured Blog: Star Maker Machine I have been following this week's featured blog since it first started a few months back. Their approach to music blogging is very unique and innovative. Each week the blog admins pick a different theme, the visitors then submit a song with a review that ties into the weekly theme. The result is a truly eclectic mix of songs and reviews. I am truly impressed on a constant basis by the creativity behind some of the readers choices. This weeks theme is 'Heaven', in contrast with last week's theme of 'Hell'. Previous themes on the blog have been: Fifty States, Songwriting, Footwear, Advice, Boats, 1984, Little Black Book, History, 2:42, City Songs, Spring & Flowers, My First, and Days of the Week. If you haven't had a chance, be sure to stop by the Star Maker Machine today. A wealth of great music awaits you. Star Maker Machine: http://sixsongs.blogspot.com/ Previously Featured Blogs

News Concerning The Digital Meltd0wn Social Network

As some of you may already know, I recently created a social network for Digital Meltd0wn. It is intended to serve as a community where musicians, artists, and those who love art and music in general can meet and learn from one another. The network has been up for a couple of weeks now, and I'm happy to report that all is going well. Here are a few stats about the network for those interested:

Members: 76
Forum Discussions: 95
Songs: 141
Photos: 93
Videos: 57
Blog Posts: 13
Groups: 6

21 new members have signed up in the last week alone. There are a few additions that some of you may be interested in. I have created a forum category for music bloggers to promote their blogs and share updates. I have also created a group for independent writers, artists, and musicians to promote and share their work. There are also a few other surprises, but you'll have to visit the site to see what I'm talking about. If you are interested in learning more about art and music, or just looking to meet like-minded people, then please join our network:

Please Join The Digital Meltd0wn Social Network

I've begin working on a social network for Digital Meltd0wn. It is not intended to compete with any other social network, rather it will be a place for all of us music lovers to interact with one another and share music among other things. The network is fully functional at the moment, however I'm working quickly to improve as many things as possible in order to provide a more enjoyable experience there. I would be honored if you all join me there. For those of you who do decide to join, I could use a little help. At this point your suggestions and feedback would be a tremendous help. I'm working on coming up with a suitable name for the network instead of using the generic 'DM Social Network', so if you have any ideas please let me know. It would also be very helpful if you could upload music, videos, pictures, and create blog posts and groups - basically anything to make the network seem more alive. Inviting a few friends probably wouldn't hurt either. As I mentioned before, I have a lot of work to do, but I will do all I can to create a utopia for music lovers. Please refer to the links below if you are interested in becoming a part of this.

Recommend Your Favorite Blogs

I should have made a post like this a long time ago. Some of you may be aware that I run another blog in addition to this blogroll simply titled Digital Meltd0wn. Several months back I requested that the visitors to DM suggest their favorite blogs to me. The response was overwhelming, and prompted me to start a list, which would eventually evolve into this blogroll. However, since that time I've been doing all the work on this list. At times it can be rather time consuming to track down blogs, review them, edit the list and keep it organized, etc. I work 11 hour shifts each day, so it's refreshing when people suggest their blogs or others to me because it saves me a lot of work.

So now it's time to give you all the chance to help. Your mission is simple: If you know of any music blogs that deserve recognition, but aren't on this list, just leave a comment here. All I need is the name of the blog, and the url. If you would like to include additional information that would be nice, but it's not necessary. I will review these blogs and add them to the list if they meet my criteria for being listed. Thank you all once again for your support. I hope to see a lot of responses.

Featured Blog - TWILIGHTZONE!

Featured Blog: TWILIGHTZONE! Normally I tend to feature blogs that aren't well known by many of you who traverse the music blogosphere regularly. However, I am making an exception in this case, and for good reason. I'm sure that there are people out there who are new to all this, and it would be a real shame if they didn't know about this legendary blog. The TWILIGHTZONE! will always have a special place in my heart because it was the music blog that was primarily responsible for encouraging me to start my own blog almost two years ago. You won't find another blog that c
