That headline made me think it was rootkit all over again. No, it's a reference to our favourite waste of time's new funding.
From Digital Music News:
Big labels are starting to spread their investments beyond artists and smaller recording and publishing entities. In fact, nosebleed deals involving both artistic and executive talent are starting to wane, leaving room for more strategic investments in promising startups.
That includes MOG , a music-focused social network that recently rustled $2.8 million from a round that included Sony BMG and Universal Music Group. The round, specifically handled through Universal Music Investments and Sony BMG Music Investments, also involved Angel Fund 74.
MOG , which claims a unique userbase of one million, secured an earlier round valued at $3.2 million. The latest round was first revealed by VentureBeat.
Contrabandwidth has just posted news that Albert Hoffman, the inventor of LSD -25, has died at 102.
Wallowing as I am in six CDs packed with psychedelic gems, it's appropriate to celebrate the man with two sides of what he inadvertently wrought.
On the video, The Yardbirds exploring their mind's eye in "Happening Ten Years Time Ago".
On the audio, the aptly named Freaks of Nature performing "People Let's Freak Out".
Thanks Albert!
Students of psychedelic posters will be familiar with this early Wes Wilson effort for The Family Dog. I’ve always wondered, who were The Sons of Adam?
Thanks to Google I finally know. A mid-60s LA group, they recorded one EP that included an Arthur Lee original, “Feathered Fish”, which Love never recorded. After the band broke up, guitarist Randy Holden joined seminal super-loud rockers Blue Cheer.
Thanks to Jon Savage, here’s “Feathered Fish”. Maybe they tapped Arthur for it when they played with “The Love”.
Does anything shout out 1966 louder than those shirts and haircuts?

Unless your the Ramones, no, nothing shouts 1966 more.
You gave me a great idea for Interactive posters on the web. You could roll over and click a band on a poster and hear the song. I'll have to put something together when I have the time.
That's a great idea. You could make it into a spider's web and have bio, pix, discography, bla bla.
I wish I was more of a HTML wizard, cuz that's a great idea. Just having one of those roll overs that pops up a small pic or whatever would be great. I'll definitely have to look in how I could do this.
