Oh Hot Damn, These Are My Jams (vol. 1)

The title of this blog is what I originally wanted to call our new "Industry Spotlight" feature, but once we added more questions to the survey besides "Current Top 5 Albums" it didn't make much sense. I figured I shouldn't let that name go to waste (<3 u Flo Rida) so I'm figuring out a way to write a series of blogs under that general theme.

First edition: My Current Top 5 Singalong Jams
Ever since I started working on Inklings full time, I've been working out of my apartment. Office space is rather pricey in NYC, plus if I work from home I can be in my pajamas until like 2pm. My roommates, on the other hand, have these things that I like to call "jobs." These "jobs" typically cause them to be out of the apartment for large chunks of the daytime. With the place to myself, I tend to walk around singing at the top of my lungs all day (sorry, stay-at-home neighbors.) These are the songs I like to sing most this week:
1. Take Cover "One More Shot"
2. Hit the Lights "Cry Your Eyes Out"
3. Demi Lovato "Get Back"
4. The Temptations "Ain't Too Proud to Beg"
5. Hanson "Where's the Love"

I'll be writing more of these, probably with different themes, from time to time. I mean, unless I get a "job."

Also, check out our two newest features-- Industry Spotlight (featuring a different musician, industry-person and music fan each week) and Write On! (highlighting a different music-related blog each week).

In the past week we've shot interviews with Breathe Carolina, Anarbor, This Providence and The Hoodies. Stay tuned to see those on the site very soon! In the meantine, check out our myspace photo albums and you can look at behind the scenes pictures from our shoots with Breathe Carolina and The Hoodies.
