Wow, boys and girls, what a week! We’ve just reached that time of the year when the final big releases come out, in anticipation for the jolly holidays and the frantic shopping season. Everything that comes out after this, until after the new year, is either anti-mainstream, has a bad marketing team or simply doesn’t care. I’ll start up with one of the most anticipated records in history, “Chinese Democracy” by Guns ‘n’ Roses. Was…
Some great new, worthwhile music is coming out this week. My favorite is definitely Ray LaMontagne’s new LP called “Gossip in the Rain.” If you’re not too familiar with the name, maybe these two songs (one and two) might refresh your memory. Ok, you’ll probably see him for the first time, but, trust me, you’ll be totally hooked by his astonishing talent. The chart killer, however, this week is probably Keane, with their third full…
“I said maybe/You’re gonna be the one who saves me ? /And after all /You’re my wonderwal…” These are part of the lyrics that marked my adolescence, and got me into the genre defining act of Oasis. ‘Little by Little,’ I became a die hard fan and started checking out the band more.

We’ve been bragging about a new design for the blog for a looooong, long time, but we’ve never really got around doing it. I guess money time was really a problem. Anyway, we got around finally do it, and we’re really pleased about it. We’re now thinking about adding some extra features, and here’s where you come in. If someone has any suggestions that can possibly lead to the improvement of ZME Music, then please…
Indeed, times flies when you’re having fun and let me tell you, it’s been one hell of a ride so far. Just one year ago I was having a beer with Andrei, when we both got the idea to materialize our passion for music somehow; writing, then, seemed the simplest way in doing just that, so, shortly after that, on a sunny June afternoon ZME Music was born. So here we are, exactly one year…
