Record Envelope

Filed under: The Rest, Eyecandy - BLA @ 2:19 pm

I’m subscribed to tons of Blogs. Most of them are rarely interesting if I’m really honest. Only few blogs achieve greatness in (almost) all of their posts. I’m aware of the fact that this Blog itself isn’t bang on it for everybody with every post. That’s not our aim. Our aim is to inform those interested about what we do and what we like and support what we think is worth supporting. That’s a way too diverse aim to please everybody. But that’s no problem because you can ignore what’s not your cuppa. And the philosophy behind our Blog is that if you like Onda Sonora you’ll be interested in our Blog and vice versa. Onda Sonora is still our main focus and we keep that one sharp.

All the Blogs that are top all the time are very focused. They have one topic and keep to that rigorously. Like this one about record sleeves. It’s not really interesting unless you’re way deep into crate diggin’ but I like it as an inspiration for my graphic design projects. And just because I like the idea. It’s simple and fantastic. Always happy if I discover one like this.

The Blogs that I don’t like are mp3-Blogs (giving away other people’s music for free without their permission is something I can’t agree with plus it makes the hardcore digger in me go wild – making it way too easy to acquire those rare gems), copycat Blogs (people just copying other Blogs without mentioning them – give credit to your sources) and Blogs hopelessly trying to be cooler than others and losing the point completely (fairly common in design-minded Blogs). But I’m subscribed to some of these too. I lose my focus quite easily, I must admit.
