	Lo-Fi Revolution
		This revolution is made up of Artists and Bands who are appalled at how the music industry is ruining music and stifling creativity.
		"Rednail Music" This is the home of Bunk Nesbit, and the 75 different bands he plays in!
		As a result, we are by-passing the recording /record company/radio/video industry by recording our music ourselves, at home, on cheap recording equipment ranging from crappy little cassette players & boom boxes up to 4 or 8 track recording equipment.

	BaylorFans.com Message Boards - Favorite indie/punk/lo-fi bands?
		I never listen to music on the radio anymore, but I've been listening to lots of indie music of late.
		Bands include Spoon (from Austin!), Pavement, Sonic Youth (long time fav), Sixteen Horspower, Wilco, Waco Bros., etc.
		They are still pretty active and have more music than the one hit played on the radio back in 98.

	Lo-Fi Entertainment
		He has promoted hundreds of events at the most prestigious nightclubs, managed, booked and produced bands, worked as a DJ, planned parties and weddings, released several CDs on his own music label, published the magazines "Lo-Fi" and "Cool Culture," and hosted and produced his own cable television series, "Retro TV."
		Sobel's love of retro music led him to spearhead the swing music revival in New York City.

	The Lo-Fi Threat
		The biggest threats facing the rise of surf music are the proliferation of cover bands, the invasion of the no lyrics=surf bands, and lo-fi.
		The no lyrics=surf bands are more dangerous because their product will be bought by folks getting their feet wet for the first time, and the resultant boredom in listening to melody-free backtracks will turn them off forever.
		Bands would do themselves, the music, and us all a favor if they waited until they were really ready to record before doing so, and release only the best tracks they can muster, instead of the cheapest.

	Low
		Welcome to the official web site for the Duluth band Low
		As always, the best way to stay on top of news about the band and to discuss their music (and related music) is to subscribe to Eric Lyman's mailing list.
		Combined with a DVD that includes 11 Low videos, live footage and a series of documentaries, along with notes and images in a 32-page booklet compiled by the band, this box set truly encapsulates all that is Low.

	Lo-Fi biografi
		Founded in early 1998 after several years of working with various bands on the Icelandic music scene, Lo-Fi completed his first album titled "Nano" later that year.
		All music and lyrics on the album were written by Lo-Fi and it was recorded and produced entirely at his home studio.
		Lo-Fi (Fridgeir Eyjolfsson) is a one-man Icelandic trip-hop band.

	lo-fi - lo(w) fidelity, initially used to describe recording quality, later a genre referring to a breed of underground indie rockers (English translations)
		During the late '80s and early '90s, lo fidelity became not only a description of the recording quality of a particular album, but it also became a genre onto itself.
		Often, these lo-fi bands fluctuated from simple pop and rock songs to free-form song structures to pure noise and arty experimentalism.
		Most of this music grew out of the American underground of the '80s, including bands like R.E.M., as well as a handful of British post-punk bands and New Zealand bands like the Chills and the Clean.

		it's hard to find material suited to our purposes from these bands, but something new could be coming from this direction.

	Ten Story Love - Music for Power-Pop Lovers and Disenfranchised Old Farts
		Songwriting is still the focus-- fully-amped songs with meaty hooks and tasty melodies.
		Ever the perfectionists, the band has scrapped all the tracks recorded for their next album and will be recorded new versions throughout the winter and spring of 2004.
		After composing a few tunes, the answer was a resounding "YES!", and the band was formed in earnest.

	"The Club is Open:" Robert Pollard and the Social Function of Popular Music
		Another interesting aspect of the band�s current marketing status is Nadine�s regular participation on the Postal Blowfish mailing list, informing the die-hard how the marketing effort is going (in very specific terms of what radio stations in what parts of the country are playing singles, etc.) and letting them know how they can help.
		This solo/band split also became a problem with the band�s label, Matador, who thought flooding the market with Bob�s music could alienate fans who are trying to keep up, at the same time dilute the buying power of the potentially wider popular music audience.
		I used to love to find bootlegs of old �60s bands that were just outtakes and unreleased songs.

	Rock Music ::: jahsonic.com
		Rock musicians were early adopters of hippie fashion and introduced such styles as the Nehru jacket; bands such as the Beatles had custom-made clothing that influenced much of '60s style.
		Keith creates the music to which Mick moves, and while the heaviest impact of the group is undeniably audiovisual, the sound alone has made the Rolling Stones the only white band played in a number of otherwise exclusively "black music" disc-jockey programs around the country.
		More significantly, he had recently formed the ground-breaking rock band, Living Colour, an all-black heavy rock band that would eventually score a string of minor hits on rock radio.

	[ compilation / split ] titles at Aquarius Records
		Anyway, Gold is an album of mostly instrumentals, a post-rock/prog/cock-rock concoction that finds the common ground betwixt the two parent bands and that means a lot of Thin Lizzy and a little bit of Kraftwerk/video game music, plus some of the Krautrocky psychedelia of Tim Green's Concentrick project as well...
		The record exploits all of the trippy tropes of the times, from Eastern-raga modes to LSD-inspired lyrics.

		For what it's worth I think a lot of early NZ music fits the lo-fi genre, but we are see recent cross-overs with new and old bands still generating this quality.
		Is it really a question of Does NZ have a genre we are best at ie in your case low fi, or will you happen to go and see another live band/act next week, next month that is completely different to what you have recently seen.
		After watching a couple of bands down at me local last night, I started thinking about which genre we are best at.

	The History of Rock Music. Lowercase: biography, discography, reviews, links
		Lowercase is a guitar-drums duo (Imaad Wasif and Brian Girgus) from San Francisco (via Palm Desert) that plays a weird hybrid of lo-fi pop, post-rock and slo-core, a veritable summa of 1990s alternative rock dialects.
		Lowercase e’ un duo chitarra-batteria di San Francisco (via Palm Desert) che suona uno strano ibrido di pop lo-fi, post-rock e slo-core, un’autentico riassunto dei linguaggi del rock alternativo degli anni 90.
		Lowercase (the founding duo with yet another bassist) borrows stylistic elements from early Sonic Youth and early Swans to concoct dark, menacing, desperate pieces (The Going Away Present, Floodlit, Glisten to the Pink).

		Techno, depending on whom one asks, has existed for approximately ten yearsit is not new music when compared with some music genres of the '90s: Lo-fi, Neo-Lounge, and Grunge, but it is music which has diversified and evolved considerably since its beginnings in the mid '80's.
		Techno is, finally, a thoroughly mediated music, from its continually recombinant musical genres and its constant (re)generation of new categories, labels, and self- definitions, to its circular processes of both resistance and acceptance.
		Listening to Techno music, attending clubs and raves, and discussing the nature of rave culture via the WWW are all leisure activities which are, for the most part, engaged in by individuals who live in industrialized nations and who have a surplus of both time and money.
