Music Unbound presents a forum for discussions on issues related to the goal
of becoming free of limiting categorizations of musical style. Comments may be
submitted below, on a variety of topics, subject to review and posting by the
moderator:
- Articles posted or referred to on this site
- New Topics to be discussed below
- Catalogs described on this site (or suggestions for new ones to list)
- Friends shown here, and their music or careers
- Resources for musicians and music presenters, for career development
(If this becomes well-utilized, a separate page will be created for it)
Note: Due to time constraints of unrelated endeavors, the Music Unbound Forum has unfortunately closed it doors for the time being. We may consider using an off-the-shelf package to create an unmoderated forum, but that would possibly compromise the goals of the forum. We are leaving existing posts up indefinitely, and have posted all appropriate posts submitted up to 8/19/99, but new posts will not be accomodated at this time.
We thank you for your contributions, and continue to support the spirit of unconstrained creation of music.

New Music Bazaar
A broad compendium of composers' resources, from the radio show
of the same name, on WGDR-FM 91.1 in central Vermont. You won't
get through all of what's here in a single sitting; plan to make this
a regular haunt, if this is your bent.
- Festival Finder
This is a wide-ranging listing of music festivals of all kinds,
plus additional resources, for fans of all varieties of music. Though
it is still arranged by genre, all genres are included and there is a
search feature for your convenience. This is about as comprehensive
as it gets, and the sheer variety of what's being presented live in
concert gives one hope that the vitality of music can still rise again.
- Internet Radio Broadcasting
- SoulFuze,
It's called "The Movement" and it's about reclaiming the musical
process that embodies the soul of musical forms deriving from
African-American culture. These are real musicians who are running up
against the pop-music machine's brick wall, and trying to figure out
why they can't get ahead.
