Talent Filter: A new music A&R blog
Posted in Artists/Bands, Fun, Halifax, Marketing, Videos on 05.21.07 19:17

So if you’re bored and need more blogs to read, here’s a potentially new introduction to bands. This was mentioned in industry blogs Coolfer and Hypebot previously. When I first saw it in Coolfer I took a look and was like there’s no hint who this is writing all this even though the Coolfer post stated ” one of those rare music-related blogs actually written by someone closely involved with the music industry”, but Hypebot thought the same thing and went looking for answers [they at least got responses]. The best one being:

…This is my only real outlet to express my opinions honestly without having to sugarcoat things in fear of pissing someone off…

The other reason I’m mentioning Talent Filter though too is that they had a summary on the Yahoo! Up Your Music contest. Halifax’s Jimmy Swift Band made it to the final three in that contest - but lost to Toronto hip hop artist Seazon.

The Jimmy Swift video was mentioned previously [and can be viewed] at:
Local Video: “Holds water against any of the great music videos produced in recent memory”

Definitely not predicting another Fake Steve Jobs though.]]>
