As you know, I am one of those rare people that dislike Spotify. The problem with free version of Spotify is that you're tied to your computer. Most people listen to music on their mobile device, such as a modern phone.
If you have a Nokia Lumia phone, the good news is that you can get Nokia Music, an advertisement-free. Also, an added perk is that it doesn't require you to sign in, it is complete free, unlimited plays, and best of all, you can listen to it offline. I don't actually have a Nokia phone, but reading about Nokia Music, I really want to switch phones just to check out this service.
Recently Nokia Music announced a new music documentary series, featuring six short films about the music landscape in six cities from independent directors Abteen Bagheri, Emily Kai Bok, Bob Harlow and Tyrone Lebon.
Jyrki Rosenberg, Global Head and VP, Nokia Entertainment had this to say about the upcoming project, "Music has always inspired various forms of pop culture and since music and film have always gone hand in hand, the idea to produce a music documentary came naturally. We are also excited to work with these emerging filmmakers and see America's different music scenes through their eyes. We look forward to shedding some light on music communities that are rarely put in the spotlight."
Look for the Nokia Music documentaries to air on Sundance Channel in January 2013.

COLISEUM OF COMICS
coliseumofcomics.com One of my favorite artists, George Perez (artist from Crisis on Infinite Earths, JLA/Avengers, and Teen Titans), will be appearing at the fourth anniversary of the Coliseum of Comics store in Sanford, Florida. If you live in the area, you should check it out. If you want to commission a quick headshot of your favorite comic book character, Perez is currently charging $40. It used to be cheaper, but then the Canadians ruined it. |
