The Music Blog – Critique



http://musicthing.blogspot.com/

As someone who is very interested in music, I find this blog very interesting. It explains clearly and thoroughly on new musical instruments and accessories, including the latest of pedals, latest tuner and there are also some interesting videos.

This blog page is full useful links, but at the same time very neat with clear and neat fonts. So, viewers don’t get confused or even annoyed when they read the entries of this blog.

This blog is all about music, music and also music instrument, so, the owner of this blog had uploaded many relevant images and videos along with his entries. The images and the videos are uploaded as evidence to what he writes about in his entries. The relevant images and videos are what attract me to read his blog. It is hard to get on track on the latest music technology nowadays, as new things come up every day. But by reading the entries in this blog, it is easier to look on which music instruments and accessories are better by reading his opinions, as I think to know how good the product, you have to know what some people think about it. Another interesting thing about this blog is, the images that he uploaded are real images, and they’re all very clear.

For example, in one of his entries, he wrote about an incredible DIY guitar and tin-can amplifiers, and he even uploaded a photo of the self-made guitar! Another good example is his entry on ‘Drumometer’ where drumming can be considered as an extreme sport! A ‘Drumometer’ is a little box that can measure how many times you can hit the drum in 60 seconds. So, by using this, there drummers can now have a tournament. This blog also tells me a lot of things that I’ve never heard about, like the ‘Weird headless guitar, from the 1950’s’. The fact that I know there are many photos on this blog, and the interesting titles, make me want to read his entries even more!

The way the owner of this blog writes his entries, makes me feel convinced on his opinions and views. He sounds like he’s really into music and has a lot of experience in the music industry. For example, when the blogger writes about a new guitar modeller, he wrote, “VG-99 Guitar System This looks like the mother of all guitar modellers - like the old VG-8, it runs from a hex pickup, has a tonne of guitar and amp models, and a MIDI out port. I'm not sure how you use the ribbon controller while playing guitar, but, you know, it's cool to have.

MV-8800 'Production Studio' Their big daddy MPC4000 killer, with built-in TR808/909 Space Echo models, a colour screen and an output for a monitor, it's almost like... using a PC.”. This is how convincing his opinions and views are!
