On the Road, part 1
[English; la version française ci-dessous.]
Unfortunately, my car has not caught up to the digital age. Although most of the music I listen to is in direct .ogg format, played on the computer, my car only understands actual, physical CDs. So, from time to time, I have to pick the best of what I have and burn it to CD. This is especially important considering I have a 30 minute drive back and forth to work every day.
I completed one such “superburn” project this weekend.
So, folks, allow me to present my picks for the best albums on DMusic and Jamendo. They’re in alphabetical order; I also created a LaTeX track listing that I print out to go with the CD binder. I just copied and pasted the table of contents — however, I then went back and turned each of these into links, so you can follow the trail and find great music. Enjoy!
NOTE: By rights, the excellent jazz musician Henri Roger should be on this list. However, he is in the process of rearranging his music folders right now.
[Français]
Malhereusement, ma voiture n’a pas joint l’époque des ordinateur. Elle ne comprend pas des fichiers de .ogg ; elle exige des CD. Donc, le jour vient quand je dois faire beaucoup de CD. C’est très important quand on considère que je dois conduire 60 minutes chaque jour.
Ce dernier week-end j’ai fini de faire quelques nouveaux CD. Ainsi, s’il vous plaît me permettre de présenter le suivant. Ce sont mes choix pour les meilleurs albums sur Jamendo et DMusic. J’ai lié le nom de chaque artiste à la page où ils peuvent être trouvés et écoutés. Amusez-vous bien!
Note: Je regrette que j’aie ne pu pas inclure mon ami Henri Roger. À ce moment il réarrange ses chemises de musique. Il est un musicien incroyable de jazz !

jamendo is a community-driven site. Your critics are already available over there: http://www.jamendo.com/fr/user/bmccosar/reviews/

Indeed, but not the combined playlist from both sites in which I am active. My Jamendo reviews are visible there, yes, but not my DMusic favorites. This site evidently gets a lot of cross traffic, so I am spanning the best of both worlds here
