Sirius Satellite Radio will be broadcasting free over the Internet tommorow and Thursday. Why do I care? Well, I don't really but it does mean you can listen to Nordic Rox, their Scandinavian speciality show: https://www.sirius.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Sirius/Page&c=FlexContent&cid=1146347242424
They're still lacking content from beyond Sweden, but the tracklists are definitely getting better all the time.

Check out "Lost tape", a free download project from the mysterious Ori L Joans: https://www.losttape.com/
He comments: "It's just a tape, containing a very ambituous pop-album (by my standards at least) that's given away for free. It's supposed to indicate sometimes, even in this world, it's possible to find something sweet without having it pushed upon you by any marketing powers. Also, it's meant to signal that this type of music can indeed be art for it's own sake, without any economical, or even personal motifs behind it. Furthermore (phew, right?) I think it's a sad development that artists and their music are so disposable these days. For instance with all the downloading for mp3 players I feel that fewer people care about records as a whole, or even about the artists behind - it's all just songs. That's why all the songs on this album are blended together to one long file."
