Featuring a critical reassessment of his work, “All Apologies” attempts to understand why Cobain still continues to be a role model for disaffected youth. It also analyses NIRVANA‘s contribution to the annals of rock history, from the early days of “Bleach” to the multi-million selling album “Nevermind”, and beyond.

In a series of exclusive interviews, NIRVANA members, Cobain‘s family and media pundits comment on his life and values, revealing the inspiration behind his music and how fame affected him both personally and artistically.

Nugent ready to record new material

The motor city madman is itching to get into the studio. He says:

“I am dedicated to, first and foremost, recording at least a dozen of my best new songs that are driving me wild,” Nugent says. “I’m just in love with the new music. I hope to hell we can go in the studio next February and have the record ready to listen to by March so that it’s out by the spring of ’07.”

Olive Musica Shiznet

 

I thought we had an incredible music situation in the punk rock house before I got the Olive Musica for my birthday. Before we enjoyed our two 300 disc cd jukeboxes but lacked the ability to keep an easy to use database of our music that we could explore on our computers, we lacked the ability to move music from our computers seemlessly to our home audio system without burning a disc, and we wanted to be able to play music from our computers and hear it directly through the home audio system.

The Olive Musica has changed all that for us. Now we can do all of the above (less playing directly from the puters but that will soon change according to the guys at Olive Media) and much more.

The Musica connects wirelessly to our computers allowing us to directly import music right onto its 160 GB hard drive. It rips cd’s directly to the hard drive then allowing you to sort the entire album or single songs from the album into a custom made playlist, of which you can create as many as you want. It plays from one playlist or as many as you want randomly.

Thats all I can think of right now but the features and capabilities seem to never end and I’ve had it since August 4th. As I find and remember more features I’ll add them onto this post.

It plays internet radio that has 1000’s of cool stations.

I will say that the Musica is doing everything I always had on my wish list for our audio set up here and more.
