we are hunted

music is what gets most of us through the day. the challenge, which the music industry and others have realized, is the difficulty in finding new artists. we are hunted is a company that is working to make it easier for people to discover new music. their about sections states:

We listen to what people are saying about artists and their music on blogs, social media, message boards and P2P networks to chart the top 99 songs online right now. Looking at music this way, we detect sentiment, expression and advocacy to better understand what people like and dislike at any given moment.

i’ve just started to play around with it so check it out here and let me know what you think by leaving a comment.

the art season begins

it seems that the art season is upon us. last friday i went to the bass museum of art with some friends for their beats after sunset event with dj a train playing some great beats. we then followed him to the gansevoort rooftop and met some friends to dance the night away.

saturday night was sleepless nights miami - a 13-hour cultural arts & entertainment festival featuring 150+ free events at over 80 locations citywide, all free of charge. the event i was able to check-out was project bandaloop where the floor was turned on it’s side as dancers danced on the side of the new world symphony building. they’re kind of hard to spot in the photo  below but just know it was impressive. let’s see what this weekend brings.
