| ping: All fans of Local Music | |
just to let you know I have started what I call the "Teesside Band Archive" on soundclick. The aim is to build a collection of local music (principally rock/punk/indie) for free download and/or listening. Over the weekend I will be uploading a number of songs from the 1977-80 period (mostly punk/new wave). If there are any current bands who want to feature please let me know - and if there are any of the old bands who do not want there music to feature, I will remove them, no problem. Its not a money making venture, and will hopefully allow people anywhere in the world to enjoy some of our local bands. Comments are welcome. | |

Thanks for that. Have been looking for some Blitzkreig Bop stuff for a while to replace the singles I used to have years ago. Cheers | |

Great idea Fastcakes - is this something you'd like publicising in Gazette or Link mag? Or do you think it works best fairly underground and building up bit by bit? | |

Thanks for this Mr.Cakes - I can see hours of nostalgia ahead for this old punk. Top site, I hope it takes off. | |

I don't think so, nothing "official" anyway - there may be some live stuff, but i'm not certain. watch this space. | |
