I am not a big Hip Hop fan do not care (at all) for R&B but I think “Kanye West” album

808s & Heartbreak

is amazing dark 80’s sad still I couldn’t stop looping it for the last month or so. I am not going to start reviewing song by song but the first 3 are amazing try it out if you like depeche mode and nick cave and joy division sounds familiar to you.

My latest fix is “The Notwist” I just bought 2 of their albums “Shrink” (1998) and “The Devil, You + Me” (2008).

Shrink - you know the feeling of discovering an amazing album long time after it is out (11 years!) and you think to yourself all this time that i could have listen to this album damm, but anyway here I am with telling you about this album and I know that the word on the street is Chemical is the song (anyway on last.fm it got more downloads) my favorite is Electric Bear. let’s get it straight this is a cult classic album alt-rock-electronic with some jazz splashes (me no big on jazz when ever i here it i look for the floor buttons)

The Devil, You + Me - another great album this time I get to listen to it very close to release year ( i also happen to see the tour for this album which was great though to see it now it will probably blow my mind) I think it is a great album my favorite song on this album is On Planet Off which remained me very much my favorite band The Gog Machine, another great songs is Good Lies, Where In This World. Definitely a master piece.

Not a review but if you like post rock Mogwai Pram Mono you might want to check out Pelican album “The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw” the first song “Last Day Of Winter” is really really good (the whole album is great)

Writing this article I was listening to “The Bad Plus” let’s see if they make it into another post.

No Feedback is Bad Feedback!

I can confest that I am a bit obssesd with music so I decided to take a stab in writing (do not expect anything more then a paragraph) about things that I listen too and see how I feel about it.

So this is my first blog post in what will be a new adventure for me,  I would love to get your feedback your love and hate emails and comments.

I am starting this blog with what will be a very important decision you have to make very early in the path to building a successful business online. the domain name important or not question been going on for a long time but if you missed it I will make it clear:

DOMAIN DOES MATTER the size of the domain doesn’t!

so now that I got it out of my system let me give you some more information:

• lets take “baby sling” if you own the domain www.babysling.com (yes i own it) it is easier to get ranking for this specific keywords then any other domain. it is already well known that if you have the exact keywords in your domain name (ideally the exact keyword(s) is the exact domain) it will make it easy to get ranking. I can give you a lot of examples for that among clients that I work with are some premium domain name such as www.diamonds.com www.eyeglasses.com among site that I own are www.babysling.com www.newyorkgeneralcontractor.com and the list goes on… though I think you got the point.
• A premium domain name is easily brand able think about putting a billboard for baby sling on the side of the road and the URL is www.TheSlingStation.com or a site with www.babysling.com which one you will remember when you get back home.
  
• Also if you have this a domain that match your targeted keywords and you populate it with the right content (this will be a whole different subject that will come down the road) you will be come an authority on the subject. it is posibble to become an authority on a subject without the exact keywords in your domain but it is a lot more work and seniority.
