New Music Site Launches
By Don • Sep 14th, 2006 • Category: Songwriting NewsIt’s not one of our sites, but it is one we’ll be checking in on often.
Gawker Media, the geniuses behind Lifehacker, Gawker and so forth, have launched Idolator.
According to the site:
We’re as obsessed with the music world as we are with the machinations behind it, and we’ll cover the people who are manufacturing the latest band buzz, whether it’s an old-guard standby (Rolling Stone), an absurdly powerful new-media turk (Pitchfork), or an agenda-pimping blogger (take your pick).
Of course, being music lovers ourselves, we also want to steer you in the direction of a good song or artist, which we’ll do every day. We aim to be discerning, but not snobby. And every time we introduce you to a new artist, we promise to wait at least three months before starting our own backlash against them.
Great! We’d love to see it.
