It is a good thing when I find great new music. Today I have done so with my discovery of the group Rotersand - specifically the album 1023.

I was listening to some online radio stations while doing some work today and my ears perked up when the track "I Cry" came on. I liked it so much I immediately went out and picked up a copy of the full album. Wow, it was not a disappointment. Rotersand could be classified as future pop, EBM or even industrial (I'm still learning all the classifications) so it has an electronic feel, but also includes some classic instruments. Most tracks have a great driving beat while some are slower, more moody, to help even things out.

Online radio has been both a blessing and a curse. A blessing in that I have found a whole new world of music I didn't even know existed just a few years ago. A curse in that I now have a list of at least 50 CDs I want to buy. Ooof, I may need a better paying job too keep up with my purchases.
