The other day I got an email, telling me about a new site that will allow Twitter users to tweet about music they like and rate it, so I thought I would take the plunge and check it out.

The site is called Musicvault.fm and it’s just so simple to use, you can use the search engine that they have on the site, or even just do a direct tweet which they will pick up, all you have to do is tweet in this format “Group/Album” XX% your comment @musicvaultfm i.e: “Muse/The Resistance” 90% Awesome record! @musicvaultfm

Then once Musicvault.fm catch your tweet they publish your opinion on their website, it’s really that easy, so I gave it a try and did one for one of my favourite albums by Royksopp, Melody A.M. and then searched for another album, this time I tried my own band, Remergence and it didn’t find anything, but, you can also search via Last.fm and this did produce the results I would have expected..

Now I’m not entirely sure how often I would use Musicvault.fm, but saying that, it is a handy little Twitter website that I think a lot of music fans out there will use to spread the word about albums that they enjoy, maybe I should start using it to promote some of those many artists out there that I personally know that would love the extra links back to their albums to help them show off their talents, hmm.

It’s all a bit of fun, something that you may or may not take seriously, but at least your Twitter followers will know what music you like

Now most of those that know me will know I’m a big fan of music, I even dabble in electronica music myself, so when I found out that Davidoth was releasing a new album I jumped at the chance to get a copy of it..

Davidoth is an Experimental Electronica band formed early 2000 in Warwick, Rhode Island USA. The band is led by its main Composer / Producer David Radcliffe who often switches between band members session by session with the only consistent member to date being Ed Anton.

It’s not very often that an album comes along that truly deserves so much credit for it’s audio delights, but String Theory by Electromagnetic Impulses is one of those albums.

Right from the very start of the album you just want to turn up your sound system as loud as it will go to show your neighbours what great electronic/dance music should sound like and not only has Electromagentic Impulses aka Jay Mallett entice us with us talents, but he’s also got the amazing vocal talents of Pixieguts and Corrientes guesting on two of the thirteen tracks and not to forget the mixing talents of DJ Crimson Death and Rigg-A-Mortis.

This album is just one of those that you want to hear over and over again! Even if you not a fan of the genre this will certainly put you on the right track, the overall quality of the production side of the release is superb, crystal clear sound and a bass that is to die for and as I mentioned earlier with the vocals of Pixieguts and Corrientes, the album doesn’t just come across as instrumental only.

As an example the track Help Saved My Life is probably one of the best Drum n Bass tracks that I’ve heard, but then the last track is a version with the vocals by Corrientes, which is even better, a track that gets your heart thumping and urge to get up on the dance floor and go for it.

Overall, this is an album that will surpass most of your thoughts of the genre and will certainly want you begging for more…

Now I must admit that I have been a fan of Inner Surge for many years and I thought it was just about time that I actually got of my proverbial backside and get the much acclaimed album Signals Screaming, so I did! And here’s my humble CD Review.

Originally released back in 2007 the album is just pure energy from the Canadian rock/metal band, with the opening track getting you quite unprepared for the blast of vocals that the album will bring to you, more of a thrash metal on some tracks, but with a mixture of the metal genre put in it’s deserved place.

These guys are just awesome and fans of groups such as Rage Against the Machine and Tool will love this album, tracks go from strength to strength and then you get the track “Wolves” which calms everything down, outstanding.

Streaming the tracks on the internet, just don’t do this album any justice you need to either download the album or get it on CD and play it LOUD, very LOUD and appreciate the power and the effort that Inner Surge have gone in to to produce not only an enjoyable album but one which you want to listen to over and over again!

9.5/10 Awseome
