Once upon a time people created and performed music with the sole purpose of expressing themselves, raising a smile, gaining attention, hearing applause and telling a good story in the most poetic and entertaining way possible.

I like music. It helps me to concentrate and focus during my working process. I’m not an expert, just a listener…most aesthetic innovations and changes in trends appear first in music and spread to other areas. Music it eh abstract beginning, where ideas get the first emotional definition, where design illustration and art have the [...]

The only way forward is that of virtual music and a global listening community. Everybody can download what s/he likes without having to go through so many TV, radios or major labels’ marketing filters.

The quantum leap

What do people want with their music? Do they want splashy timed release full of shock and over styling, a la the recent Gaga/Beyonce video? A terrible song with a pretty standard music video, but unarguably effective. Do they want virtual 3D music festivals where they can jam onstage in real time with their favorite [...]
