Links for 6.12.08: NASA’s tunes, Lily Allen’s despair, Disney’s big music $$$…
*Music sales are down in general, at Walt Disney Records, though, music revenues are up 40%. Thanks, Hannah! [ypulse]
*The USB Mix Tape puts a flash memory stick into an old-school cassette-like case. For all your adolescent wooing needs. In additional USB retro-tech news: Behold the USB-powered vinyl-to-CD phonograph. Nice. [neatorama]
*The NASA crew is listening to Calexico these days. [listening post]
*Watch: shaky video from last night’s Minneapolis Kanye West show. First: He addresses a heckler. Second: He does “Don’t Stop Believin’.” Kanye is no Arnel Pineda. [nah right + the office]
*You may have asked yourself what a Beatles tag cloud looks like. [duke listens]
*Lily Allen is a human being: “If I’m honest, it’s probably because part of it is true these days I am more known for being a train wreck than a musician, and it does hurt.” Now I’m sad again, everyone.
*Off topic: Twitter anonymously with SecretTweet. I want to do this on a daily basis. [via spincity]
*You will notice that I did not mention Metallica. Goodbye.
“Kanye is no Arnel Pineda.” TONS of perspective in that simple commment. Hear hear!
