Pit Stop Music Marathon: The First Weekend

This last Saturday the evening temperature was breaking 40 degrees for the first time in a few months, and the Bloomington streets were filled weekend revelers. On north Walnut, college kids grooved to the “sublime" sounds of imitation at the Bluebird. A bachelorette and her posse were headed to Brothers Bar and Grill to presumably obtain a stranger's underwear, show her bra to a different stranger, and then down a ton of shots with all the strangers. A drunk guy was being briskly escorted up th… Continue

Musician Krista Detor Takes Flight




By Emily Thompson:



There are two types of people in this world: the screamers and the flappers. When a person jumps off a cliff, they can either scream on their way down or attempt to fly. This cla… Continue

MFT Mixtape - March 2010

Howdy gang!

The March Mixtape is here. Lots of Muncie connections this time around as that's where my music experience here in Indiana began. It's so fun to jump around on MFT listening to records I loved and lost and have now found again!

Results from "How Do You Get Your Music" Poll

The poll is now closed, here's the results. One thing to note is that several people mentioned that there are free legal download sites like MFT. I was kinda assuming that everyone got their music that way as well and was more interested in music that would normally be purchased but good point.

Social Consciousness in Music

I'm sitting here listening to "The Flesh Failures/Let The Sun Shine In" from the movie soundtrack Hair. The song is haunting. I grew up listening to the Cowsills version and watching the movie, but have never been to a show of the musical. I caught the tail end of a program tonight where Ben Vereen (original cast) was drawing parallels between the time of the Vietnam War and today's situation with war and social/economic inequality. The past few days I have been listening to Black Sabbath's War… Continue

SXSW-Bound Artists Making a "Pit Stop" in Bloomington






Most Indiana music fans would probably agree that the biggest problem with the South by Southwest music festival is that it is more
than a thousand miles away. Many would probably als… Continue
