Discovering New Music

If you love music, one of the ways you can find new bands and discover new music is through online forums and music services.  Music lovers have always looked for places to discuss new bands, swap boot legs and chat on fan web sites.  Here are some tips on the different ways to discover new music.

One of the best ways to discover new music online is by visiting radio stations, popular music sites and music forums.  Millions of people discuss music online each month and you can find great bands, listen to samples or even download free songs from band sites.  Many popular web sites such as MTV.com also show videos of your favorite songs, and you might discover new music by searching around for music in your genre.

Music services are also another great way to discover new music.  For a small subscription fee, usually $10 to $20 per month, you can sample thousands of songs.  If you like the songs, you can download them to your mp3 player or buy the CD easily. 

Two of the most popular music services are Napster and Yahoo.  Both music services are 100% legal and you can sample so much music and find out about different bands than just searching blindly on the internet.  There is a downer to music sites, as soon as you end your subscription, the music that you downloaded are no longer able to be listened too.  While cheaper than buying CD’s.  If you want to own your own music instead of licensing it, music services are not the best deal for you.  If you are looking to discover new music, check out the above suggestions.

DaVinci Code Movie has grossed over $436 Million world wide

The evangelical subversions of The Da Vinci Code leave you gasping for breath. From its intriguing opening to its cryptic closing, the film leaves audiences largely out of its range of frisson.

While you watch you’re no doubt riveted by the counter-biblical theories propounded which are at best amusing, and at their worst they are outrageous.

The question is, how seriously must we take this cinematic version of Dan Brown’s rabble- rousing novel?Seen purely as a fictional piece of invention, Da Vinci brings a Mona Lisa smile to your face. You aren’t quite sure whether your senses are being sucked into the suspense or simply being teased into submission.

Enigma is endorsed by the plot.No matter how you look at it Da Vinci is stylish cinema done up in colours that vary from the vibrant to the sepia. Horrific vignettes from the past recreating a historic perspective to the biblical mythology intersperse the present-day investigations of symbologist Robert Langdon( Tom Hanks) as he teams up with a rather frigid-looking cryptologist Sophie(French actress Audrey Tautou, doing a rather capable impersonation of an Egyptian Mummy left out in the sun) .

Don’t look for any crackling chemistry Hanks and his French co-star.They are meant to be partners in a mission that boggles the mind. Director Ron Howard saturates our senses in the most primeval colours of life, giving to the product a hue of hefty flamboyance.

Not every code and symbol in the long but brisk fable makes sense. But life and art, as much as religion and spiritualism are bereft of rationale. You either accept blindly or start applying workaday logistics and find the work lacking in coherence.

Ron Howard’s narrative never strays from the enigmatic path. It keeps the audience as much out of the center of the mysterious plot as the protagonists who wear bewilderment like second skin.

Director Ron Howard has teamed up earlier with the versatile Tom Hanks in one the actor’s earlier films Splash and more recently in Apollo 13. This time the two work in a space that has never been occupied by any film before. They have certainly created a work that works beyond the given parameters of cinematic entertainment.

Watch out for the versatile and watchable French actor Jean Reno as an investigative officer. He’s the only actor who dares to question the plot through his performance.
