The Sixty One dot com

A new music service launched the other day (2 days ago?) and from my first couple of experiences with it I don’t have anything but good things to say about it. I’ve already discovered a load of new indie style music. The site is similar to digg in the way you promote stories to the homepage except they have added a point system where you are awarded points based on certain actions you take on the site (voting for songs, listening to the rack). Whenever you vote or ‘bump’ a song you are charged a certain amount of those points (5). There are different levels you can reach and other features to keep the site interactive. By far the greatest feature of the site is the ability to browse anywhere on the site but still keep the music playing as you move from page to page, truly unique!

Heres a couple of the songs I’ve discovered so far:
Iron & Wine - Boy With A Coin
Gorillaz - Kids With Guns
Mogwai - Gouge Away
The Acorn - Dents

Check out TheSixtyOne now and add me as a friend.

Last Weekend

I posted the photos from the weekend up on flickr so check those out in the November 2007 set.

 Bryce came to Oshawa on Friday night in the last stop of his little trip across Eastern and Southern Ontario. From what I can remember he went to Kingston, St-Catherines, London, Toronto and Oshawa. Pretty good tour I would say.

 Jess, B.B Gun and the best beer in the world woot!!

Bryce and Darren taking out Brett’s staples. I videotaped the operation but need to get my camera cable back before I can upload it, maybe later tonight.
