Jobs Tops List of Online Music "Powergeeks"
The magazine’s “Powergeek 25″ list was compiled to show the behind-scenes-players reshaping the way people listen to, buy and watch music.
” Music fans spend much of their day, if not their life, sitting in front of their computer, discovering and downloading music,” Blender’s editor-in-chief Craig Marks said in a statement.
“Today’s power brokers no longer work in the steel-and-glass towers of the traditional record business; instead, they’re tech geeks, bedroom bloggers and Silicon Valley visionaries.”

He said Jobs, who co-founded Apple Inc. and is chief executive of the company, had proved to be a technology trendsetter.
“The iTunes Store and the iPod have done more to change the way people listen to music than anything since the CD, and maybe since the sound recording,” Marks said.
The magazine put Tom Anderson and Chris DeWolfe, co-founders of the the popular social networking site MySpace as second in “The Powergeek 25.”
They were credited with making made good on the Internet’s promise to “level the music-industry playing field, allowing basement bands to effortlessly share their music, inform fans about tour dates and build an audience online.”
In third place were the creators of YouTube, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen, whose file-sharing site has become “the star-maker MTV used to be.”

Building the Ultimate Linux-based Music Server
This system is the fourth dedicated Linux-based music server that I’ve built over the past eight years. For the first time, though, I tried to do the job right, rather than just making do with spare parts. After all, digital music is no longer an interesting experiment, but the primary focus of my listening setup, despite all of that vinyl gathering dust in the basement.

Brimming over with music
The Summer School is a unique gathering point for musicians of every possible description and of varying standards of ability. Following a roughly chronological scheme from early music through to contemporary, there are one-week courses in piano accompaniment and early brass (cornetts and sackbuts), two-week courses in film music composition and jazz improvisation, three-week courses in conducting and opera performance. On a single day when I was there, I looked in on a piano masterclass, a baroque orchestral workshop and an introduction to Indian classical music, and attended a concert by Tarang — an ensemble of young musicians playing classical and contemporary Indian music — and the Rose Consort of Viols. There was a great deal more on offer but I have unfortunately not yet managed to master the art of being in three places at once. If I’d gone in later weeks, I could have earwigged on a voice class given by Emma Kirkby, joined a RockShop session with Herbie Flowers or witnessed William Sitwell make his debut as narrator in a performance of Façade, the first Sitwell to do so since Edith.
