  1. This is Natalia Machado. I find out a really interesting and appropriate, I think, article for us and the rest of the people to read. It is the following:


    Music Articles and Life Enrichment


    Whether you admit it or not, music imbeds our daily life, weaving its beauty and emotion through our thoughts, activities and memories. So if you're interested in music theory, music appreciation, Beethoven, Mozart, or other composers, artists and performers, we hope you'll spend some time with here and learn from these music articles of note for all ages and tastes.

    When I first started studying the history of music, I did not realize what I was getting into. I had thought that music history was somewhat of a trivial pursuit. In fact, I only took my history of classical music class because I needed the credits. I did not realize how completely fascinating music history is. You see, in our culture many of us do not really learn to understand music. For much of the world, music is a language, but for us it is something that we consumed passively. When I began to learn about the history of Western music, however, it changed all that for me. I have had some experience playing musical instruments, but I have never mastered one enough to really understand what music is all about. This class showed me.

    When most of us think about the history of music, we think of the history of rock music. We assume that the history is simple because the music is simple. In fact, neither is the case. The history of music, whether you're talking about classical music, rock music, jazz music, or any other kind, is always complicated. New chord structures are introduced bringing with them new ways of understanding the world. New rhythmic patterns are introduced, bringing with them new ways of understanding time. And music reflects all of it.

    Even when the class was over, I could not stop learning about the history of music. It had whetted my appetite, and I wanted more. I got all the music history books that I could find. I even began to research forms of music that had not interested me before in the hopes of enhancing my musical knowledge further. Although I was in school studying toward something very different – a degree in engineering – I had thought about giving it up and going back to get a degree in musicology. That is how much I am fascinated by the subject.

    If you have never taken a course in the history of music, you don't know what you are missing out on. The radio will never sound the same to you again. Everything will seem much more rich, much more luminous, and much more important. A new song can reflect a new way of being, and a new way of imagining life in the world. This is what learning about the history of music means to many of us.

  3. Hello everyone!

    In the following link, you can download music for your mp3 for free or, if you prefer, you can hear it online. Most of this music has been played by Dj´s who are not commercially known, but who want to share what they do.

    http://www.emoxion.com/

    In this other site you can find information on events of both, international and Colombian DJs. http://www.latinamericasounds.com/

    "Latinamericasounds is a collective of artists lovers of electronic music who seek to disseminate, generate, produce, promote and establish the culture of electronic music through forums, events, raves, parties, conferences, workshops, distribution of music, point of meeting, discussion groups, chats on the internet and periodicals which allow to focus on the culture of this music that is becoming more important. "

    Finally, I recommend this last page to buy electronic music online, this is a good way to support new talent, download music legally and enjoy music that is not commercially known. Prices are around two dollars.
