Our focus is music.
We think that music is the purest form of art, because it can hit you directly, without any rationalization. We think of music not as an industry but as a form of art and culture, that therefore must be free for everyone (then, if a musician's worthy, one should support him, not his label).
We want to spread the word about bands and musicians that see music as an art more than a chore. People that try to innovate or that simply put their heart in what they do.
First of all, we suggest our followers to sign in to last.fm to find out more bands similar to the ones they already listen to.
Here're ours:
Angel Tear (Aka Dark-Blaze)
Aleps
Kain
James
Kustin
Second point: we don't think of genre categorization as an absolute. It's useful (and we use it) to give an idea, but, especially if the music is not one-sided and monodirectional, as good music should be, it's just an approximation and it's not meant to represent the whole of somebody's artistic production. For the same reason, we think that it's stupid to hate a whole genre a priori, but we believe that every artist worth of this name works his own way and should be judged individually.
Third, if anyone has a band or a musician that he wants us to create a link about, just contact us through the /ask or the /request page.
