Only 1 online music company at O'Reilly Web 2.0 Expo?
Where are all the Music 2.0 companies at Web 2.0 Expo. Not many here. I'm a bit disappointed, but I guess it's what I expected. This is more social media than music, but music is dependent upon social media, which is why I find it funny that no one I know is here. Maybe they're waiting for Web 2.0 NYC in September.
Web 2.0 Expo – San Francisco

DJs love Insight Bikinis
Like any respectable DJ blog on the Internet, we've got to cover (or uncover) just about anything that has to do with DJ culture. Surely we'd be neglecting our readers if we didn't at least show important advances in fashion (yeah, right!). As we're an equal opportunity blog, we'll hit you with some men's suits over the next few weeks. For now, we're pushing the female Lycra.
Obama's Yes We Can House Track
Been looking for Obama's "Yes We Can" speech set to house music? Well, here you go. Not sure it'll rival Fingers Inc. vs. MLK, "I Have a Dream," but it's pretty damn good. It's been on the Beatport Top 10 chart for a few weeks now.
Fluid Turntable Watch
DJs sure love turntables! Despite all things going digital nowadays, we can keep the turntable close to our hearts by slapping one on the wrist. This watch by Fluid has both leather and steel wristbands. It’s $70 at Karmaloop.com.
Korea's music emprassario Jin-Young Park speaks to Portfolio on the music business future
In this video interview with Portfolio Magazine, Korean music executive Jin-Young Park discusses broadband penetration in South Korea and how that has affected music sales and what he believes is the death of the album as we know it. He sees a future in singles sales and the band as a brand, it's name plastered over phone cards, devices, merchandise and a host of other marketable products.
My buddy Kim Kline!
My friend, recording artist Kim Kline, and her manager, Brandon Chretien, were in town this week. I caught Kim’s impromptu performance for a Sony/BMG executive in the lounge at New York’s The London Hotel. I kept interrupting Kim with my camera. Heck, I am a blogger! Have camera, will travel!
So, if you haven’t heard Kim, she’s a fabulous pop/rock phenom, sure to blow up quickly, even though she’s been putting her music and packaging together for years now. But, to be a rock star, that’s what it takes. And Kim’s got what it takes–absolutely!
So, check out Kim’s video below. And don’t forget to visit KimKlineMusic.com or myspace.com/kimkline for touring info, to purchase her music and more! Let me get you started by giving you the link to 
to preview and purchase Kim’s self-titled album.
We love Kim! I know this is a DJ culture blog…but hey, you’d love Kim too! DJs can play rock remixes, right? Hmmm…speaking of rock remix, I think I’m gonna have to pitch that idea to her and maybe I can go in and lay down a house mix to her vocals. Good ideas happen in an instant.
Anyway, enough of my yapping. Here’s her hot video, “Inside,” which is my favorite tune on the album. She’s got new material coming soon!
