It's funny, talking to Em or other kids her age. The other day, Em was telling me about the Amazon Kindle, really selling it. 'It's about the size of a book, and it would hold all your books! And magazines, and newspapers, and it can download a book in like a minute!' Really? 'And it's been around for months , so it's nothing new!' Months, that's the test of time. She's thirteen. So on the Trek ride...
Any Mojo Nixon fan will greedily scarf up this offering before it has much of a chance to get to know the shelf. Especially since this is out of print, although I do believe you can download the mp3's from Amazon or Itunes, I think. A fantastic example of what happens when attitude, rockabilly, and smart lyrics go out drinking together. Whereabouts Unknown came out in 1995 and shortly into the opening...
I like to think that, of all the ways to express one’s unique brand of nerdery, we music geeks are an extra special breed. Whether you’re a rabid record collector or a burgeoning singer/songwriter or just a guy who can’t sleep until he knows his iPod has been properly charged and synced, you understand that [...]
Brilliant quote from Mojo Nixon , on the results of his free track giveaway on Amazon . It's the eternal question with 'free' - is the exposure worth the cost of the content given away? Mojo Nixon was cult at best before (translation - I'd never heard of him), but now he's got a lot of exposure by giving away his music free for a limited time. My view is that he's neither lost a million or gained a...
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On October 6th, in support and celebration of the release of Mojo Nixon’s latest album “Whiskey Rebellion,” The Orchard, a full service media company specializing in the distribution of music and video entertainment, announced that Mojo’s entire catalog would be available to download at no cost, exclusively from Amazon MP3. Since this announcement,...
If your music collection doesn't have any Mojo Nixon, it could probably use some fixing. And you're in luck, because all of his music is currently available for free at Amazon . Nixon's generosity is in part to publicize Whiskey Rebellion , his first release of new material in nearly a decade, but also to stimulate America's faltering economy: "History has shown than when people listen to my...
Psychobilly artist Mojo Nixon has been giving away his back catalogue on Amazon this month, and according to a report in the Wall Street Journal has racked up more than one million downloads already.
Cult musician Mojo Nixon hasn’t had a hit in years, but he’s moved over a million songs at Amazon.com so far this month. The artist, who calls his revved-up rockabilly sound “psychobilly,” earlier this year cooked up a scheme to put almost his entire catalog up on Amazon.com, for free.
Mojo Nixon has joined the growing list of artists giving away music . Last week when he released his new album, "Whiskey Rebellion," on Amazon MP3 he began a three week promotion offering both the new album and most of his back catalog for free. The promotion will last 3 weeks (starting Wednesday, October 7). It includes solo albums and albums Skid Roper, but not his 1994 collaboration with...
It's not often that an artist with as many albums as Mojo Nixon decides to give them all away for free. Mojo Nixon is def not for everyone but might as well give it a shot.Link:Amazon - Mojo Nixon Discography
Mojo Nixon offers all his songs for free, for three weeks, USA IP addresses only. "One of the most outsized personalities on college radio in the '80s, Mojo Nixon won a fervent cult following with his motor-mouthed redneck persona and a gonzo brand of satire with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. Nixon had a particular knack for celebrity-themed novelty hits ("Elvis Is Everywhere,"...
Today is Thanksgiving here in Canada and, as always, Canadians have a lot to be thankful for. The Great Recession has been tough, but it appears that we haven’t been as badly hit as other countries; the United Nations recently ranked Canada as the fourth best country to live in; and the Canadian dollar is [...]
