Introductory

Introduction

Hello and welcome to my new blog ~Distant Avalon~ (named after the GSC Saber Lily Figurine). I know have not been a very constant blogger up to now since... well... I really didn't have to will power to commit 1-2 hours of my time every week to update a blog which, lets face it, no one will ever reads.

Then why then, why create a new blog you might ask...

Back-story

Well... It all started on a cold night in India one day when I was listening to my mp3 player. I had only brought a playlist of about 100 songs for my 21 day India trip and I was starting to get bored of the same old songs playing over and over again. It had then occurred to me that although I deemed myself a music student (of sorts), I didn't really know a wide range of songs at all. If anything, my personal library of songs was actually much smaller then that of an average consumer. I started to worry of course.... how could a music student be exposed to so little music?

So this is pretty much the solution i came up with. I would start a music sharing blog and attempt to get my friends to contribute to it. This way I could widen the variety of songs I know and at the same time would be able to recommend songs that I like.


So How It Works (or how it suppose to….)

I will personally try to post 1 album, artist and/or song recommendation per week. This way I can share with the rest of the world music I like and let them know what I am currently listening too. Hopefully other members of the blog will too do the same. If all is successful, I hope to create an active blog where different people post different types of music recommendations across all genres and languages, so we can all share, enjoy and learn to appreciate a wide spectrum of music and at the same time keep in touch with one another or meeting new people.
