Chris Mule's MiM Mission Statement

Thursday, May 27, 2004

MTV
I hope you all get the opportunity watch that Frontline special this evening. I would love to hear feedback as well as what effect THe MTV has played in your life? Most of us were there in the beginning. Last year Frontline ran a show about the marketing of MTV and how they would send people out to talk with teenagers about what is cool. The minute MTV announces that something is "cool" it stops being cool. It would also be interesting to talk about radio. I am a big fan of radio, but have stopped looking to it for music influences. I hope you are well, and I will be in Boston on the 12th of June. I am staying at Redbones.

You say that you don't look to radio for influences anymore, but what radio are you listening to? The good stuff is out there, but you just have to look at the right frequencies. Of course, college and independent radio stations are the perfect place to start. For those of you in Boston, the links on the right point to stations that play a more diverse selection of music than any station whose bumper sticker you see all over the city.
I would have to agree with the local radio in Boston...WERS does open the door to some great stuff and they do keep it local. The radio in DC does offer the same opportunity. To be living in Appalachia and to be hearing Outkast 5 times a day is a bit strange to me. Although, I do think Outkast is doing some interesting stuff...did I just say that? You are correct on that point and I need to learn to be a bit more open-minded when it comes to new music...did I just say that?
