Cool beans & cool blogs to visit


The absolutely wonderful and classy Mike at Pop Trash Addicts named this blog as having one of the best end of year countdowns in 'the first but most probably not annual' Pop Trash Addicts Blog Awards!! Thanks a bunch, Mike! :D Other fabulous winners include some of my favorite blogs to browse - like FABTASTIC! Music (in Best New Blogs), Trip The Switch (in Best Blogs Devoted To One Artist - Kylie, in this case!), and The Isle Of Deserted Pop Stars (as the runner-up for the grand prize of Best Blog!)!

I haven't done a post about blogs I like for awhile, so this seems like the perfect time to let you know about some cool blogs! :)

Here are some new awesome affiliates...
  • Adventures Of An Audio Diva is the divalicious Jennifer's amazing blog, full of her fun and engaging musical musings on a variety of genres and artists. Definitely one of the friendliest blogs I've ever come across! :)
  • Different Is Dangerous is thankfully here to stay after a rocky period of time where probablyrustin was unsure about continuing with the blog. His thoughtful reviews are not to be missed!
  • The forum at FlopPOP! is the place to be! All the best pop trash fans hang out there, including yours truly (but I need to post more!!), so get over to FlopPOP! quick! :)
  • Groovin' Lima has all the latest music and music news, plus a lot of downloads! Coolness!
  • Mystical Star is the chillout/New Age spin-off of Luckystar Music (both are private, so you'll have to visit the Luckystar site to email and request an invite - it's well worth taking the time!) and the best place to find tunes to relax to after partying hard to the tracks you'll find at these other blogs! :)
  • obscuria. is relatively new but already has a lot of nifty things to read and listen to! Obscure and lesser-known artists get featured here, and you're sure to find some great new tunes to enjoy!
  • Get your hip-hop fix over at The Prophet, where you can find all the latest tunes and news about your favorite music stars! :)
And some new links in the 'Cool Blogs to Visit' section of the sidebar...
  • You can find new and classic Israeli and world music at the great Just (Random Blog)! There are lots of neat new artists to discover. :)
  • Nau Pyrata is a cool collection of music blog links. Lots of new blogs to discover there!
  • POPTastic! has all the newest music, but I like this blog for the 'blast from the past' posts! :)
  • The Isle Of Deserted Pop Stars is like the holy grail of flop pop star blogs - this blog highlights and champions those pop stars whose efforts fell by the wayside. Tons of unheard of or little-known pop stars get their time to shine at The Isle! :)
  • The Passion Of Indie Music is your source for downloads of new indie bands and keeps the pretentiousness to a minimum. ;) I discovered HK 119 there, so as far as I'm concerned this blog is a-OK in my book! (Er, blog!)
  • Totally Fuzzy is like the ultimate collection of blog links, except it's even better, because it has posts on updated blogs every day. Well worth a visit or two! Or three, or a million...
  • Trip The Switch is the fantastic Kylie blog I mentioned at the beginning of the post - you've got to visit and check out the beautiful layout and even prettier posts! :)
  • VIP Music Only! has pop music news and downloads - a fun place to visit!
  • ??? (a.k.a. Please Don't Stop The Music) has all the newest indie releases, plus some older material. It's fun to browse the posts and find new artists to listen to!
Have fun blog-hopping! :)

Cheery bye, Scarlett
