ادامه مطلبDescription Mo ings are a madcap time for many of us. We wake up in a haze—often after hitting snooze a few times. Then we rush around to get ready and out the door so we can officially start the day. Before we know it, hours have slipped by without us accomplishing anything beyond downing a cup of coffee, dashing off a few emails, and dishing with our coworkers around the water cooler. By the time the workday wraps up, we’re so exhausted and defeated that any motivation to accomplish something in the evening has vanished. But according to time management expert Laura Vanderkam, mo ings hold the key to taking control of our schedules. If we use...

ادامه مطلبHappy National Vinyl Record Day!You might assume millennials are the ones lining up on Record Store Day to drop coin on the latest special edition, 180-gram, splatter-paint record of the month, but you'd be wrong -- at least in the United Kingdom.According to a new study by market research company YouGov, UK music fans between the ages of 45 and 54 are actually more likely to hit record stores in search of vinyl. By contrast, the study found 18- to 24-year-olds are least likely to purchase vinyl, suggesting last year's sales explosion could be attributed to vinyl nostalgia rather than discovery. The study also unearthed two very bleak statistics that are depressing enough to make any collector reconsider this hobby: 56 percent of vinyl buyers tend to keep their feelings to themselves and 6...
ادامه مطلبI fell in love with music at a very young age. I can remember sitting in my parent's living room, listening to the crackle and pop that accompanied each new song, only to be replaced with a thumping drum intro or a sick guitar lick that seemed to leap from our Klipsch co er ho s. This experience stuck with me through the introduction of cassette tapes, CDs and finally the current digital-music age. The convenience and quality of digital music is unparalleled, but with the recent resurgence of records -- and as any vinyl enthusiasts (and certain audiophiles) will tell you -- vinyl has a special sound that digital music just can't capture or replicate. I'm not immune to its pull; I've recently invested in a new tu table and sound system and have actually started buying vinyl again.And no...

ادامه مطلبSony used photos of Buckley's records to digitally recreate his collection. Stay Golden Music An album collection is an incredibly personal item. Flip through someone's discs, and you get a window into not only who they are but who they've been. An unexpected reggae fan. A Top 40 worshipper. A teen with a penchant for bubblegum pop.

For the unfamiliar, Buckley, who drowned in 1997 at the age of 30, recorded only one studio album: "Grace." Not a hit when released, it has since acquired a cult following, even making...

ادامه مطلب"Where is my YouTube check?" WireImage via Getty Video streams don't pay the bills.That's the takeaway from a report on UK musicians' revenue in 2015 by the British Phonographic Industry, the record label association that promotes British artists including Adele and Sam Smith.The number of views on YouTube and other sites was explosive last year, rising 88 percent from 2014, to 26.9 billion plays, BPI said.
