Olive Musica Shiznet

 

I thought we had an incredible music situation in the punk rock house before I got the Olive Musica for my birthday. Before we enjoyed our two 300 disc cd jukeboxes but lacked the ability to keep an easy to use database of our music that we could explore on our computers, we lacked the ability to move music from our computers seemlessly to our home audio system without burning a disc, and we wanted to be able to play music from our computers and hear it directly through the home audio system.

The Olive Musica has changed all that for us. Now we can do all of the above (less playing directly from the puters but that will soon change according to the guys at Olive Media) and much more.

The Musica connects wirelessly to our computers allowing us to directly import music right onto its 160 GB hard drive. It rips cd’s directly to the hard drive then allowing you to sort the entire album or single songs from the album into a custom made playlist, of which you can create as many as you want. It plays from one playlist or as many as you want randomly.

Thats all I can think of right now but the features and capabilities seem to never end and I’ve had it since August 4th. As I find and remember more features I’ll add them onto this post.

It plays internet radio that has 1000’s of cool stations.

I will say that the Musica is doing everything I always had on my wish list for our audio set up here and more.

The US Bombs are tops on MusicFilter’s list of cool bands that kick ass like it was meant to be kicked….in your face punk rock that should be the test of tests when testing the punk factor in ‘punk rock’.

Listen to “Cheers” a track off of “We are the Problem”.

Favorite Johansen quote about new record which was recorded in 14 days.

The Bellrays – Have a Little Faith

The Bellrays new record “Have a Little Faith” will be out on May 2nd. A full tour will follow.

 

8/16/20 I almost forgot Elvis’ death day. Continue to RIP King. I just had to add some extra to BMF’s post here. I’m surprised this was all he had because we were infatuated with The Bellrays for a long time. We downloaded  “Kill the Messenger”. The lead singer has Tina Turner vibes.The Bellrays appear on BMF’s 2002 band link list from WHTRR. They traveled the country with Nashville Pussy. We saw them play at Echo Lounge in April of 2003. See BMF’s review and photos of the show.

 

 

 

 

The lyrics turn out to be poignant for our present situation. I miss you. I love you. ~mc~ #57bmf4ever

I feel alone
I feel dead
I got a pain in my heart going straight to my head
I don’t care
What you say
I was born one time and I’m dying every day.
I wanna kill the messanger of sadness.
The man who makes it rain.
Spill the wine
Something for nothing
It’s all that you can gain.
I feel confused.
I feel lost.
I feel like the world wants to put me under.
