<title>New release: netBloc Vol 37: FIVE</title>

<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.archive.org/download/BSCOMP0037/BSCOMP0037.jpg" style="width:200px;height:200px;float:left;margin-right:1em;" alt="Cover of 'netBloc Vol. 37: FIVE'" title="Cover of 'netBloc Vol. 37: FIVE'" /></p>

<p>After five years and 37 volumes of the <strong>netBloc</strong> series, I think it&rsquo;s fair to say that blocSonic has turned on more than a few people to the netaudio culture. From the beginning, that was precisely why I began the series. I strive to make each volume eclectic and packed with information about each track. Combine that with the professionally designed art &amp; PDF and what you&rsquo;re left with is a compilation that serves as a great way to catch up on what&rsquo;s been happening in netaudio culture.</p>

<p>Of course, if you&rsquo;re new to netaudio, it&rsquo;s also a great way to introduce you to that very culture. Is this the first netBloc release you&rsquo;ve come to check out? If so, I welcome you. When you&rsquo;re done enjoying &ldquo;netBloc Vol. 37: FIVE&rdquo;, please check out <a href="http://blocsonic.com/releases/type/netblocs">the other 36 volumes</a>!</p>

<p>Thanks, also, to all of you who continue to return to blocSonic to enjoy this series! It&rsquo;s certainly a pleasure to be able to turn you on to incredible, INDEPENDENT music.</p>

<p>Remember&hellip; everything we release is cool to share! Always keep the music moving&hellip; share it&hellip; blog it&hellip; podcast it! If you&rsquo;re in radio&hellip; support independent music and broadcast it!</p>

<p>Cheers to the next five years!</p>

<title>New release: MUTE month ends with &amp;amp;ldquo;UNkilling Time&amp;amp;rdquo;</title>

<p>It&rsquo;s hard to believe that January is almost done and it&rsquo;s already that time for us to wrap up <a href="http://www.blocsonic.com/artist/mute"><strong>MUTE</strong></a> month. It seems like it went way too quickly! No worries though, we end it with a tremendous new EP produced by UNknown (Formula). At times dark and other times introspective, yet all the while &ldquo;UNkilling Time&rdquo; is absorbing. As with all of what you heard by MUTE this month, this is music for the discriminating listener. Don&rsquo;t say I didn&rsquo;t warn you if you&rsquo;re unable to stop listening.</p>

<p>I can&rsquo;t thank Tha Silent Partner and UNknown enough for the amount of work they put in to make MUTE month go off without a hitch! I sure hope that this isn&rsquo;t the last we hear from MUTE here at blocSonic!</p>

<p>Once more, I thank YOU too! I sincerely hope you enjoyed MUTE month as much as I have. It&rsquo;s always a pleasure to be able to share great music. Remember&hellip; everything we release is cool to share! Always keep the music moving&hellip; share it&hellip; blog it&hellip; podcast it! If you&rsquo;re in radio&hellip; support independent music and broadcast it!</p>

<title>New release: MUTE month continues with &amp;amp;ldquo;Pavement Politics XE&amp;amp;rdquo;!</title>

<p>If you&rsquo;ve been following what we do for long enough, you might have first heard <strong>MUTE&rsquo;s</strong> <em>&ldquo;Is It Too Late For US All&rdquo;</em> when it made an appearance on <a href="http://www.blocsonic.com/releases/show/netbloc-volume-15-this-album-wont-eat-your-gas-money">&ldquo;netBloc Vol. 15: this album won&rsquo;t eat your gas money&rdquo;</a> back in mid-2008. A little over a year later, we brought you the great release by one half of MUTE&hellip; <strong>UNknown</strong> aka Formula&rsquo;s <a href="http://blocsonic.com/releases/show/the-overcast-project">&ldquo;The Overcast Project&rdquo;</a> and then a little under another year, the other half of MUTE&hellip; <strong>Tha Silent Partner</strong> made his blocSonic release debut with <a href="http://blocsonic.com/releases/show/tha-complete-platters-sessions-xe">&ldquo;Tha Complete Platters Sessions XE&rdquo;</a> and it&rsquo;s two singles <a href="http://blocsonic.com/releases/show/p-pulsar">&ldquo;P Pulsar&rdquo;</a> and <a href="http://blocsonic.com/releases/show/starksy-featuring-seti-aka-k9">&ldquo;Starksy&rdquo;</a>. As you see, MUTE has long been part of the blocSonic story and with MUTE month the connection grows. After what has been a long gestation period, I&rsquo;m very happy to present to you this remastered re-release of what I consider to be a netaudio classic! I hope you enjoy it and the bonus disc of previously unreleased goodies from the <strong>&ldquo;Pavement Politics, Vol. 1&rdquo;</strong> sessions.</p>

<p>Thanks once again for your interest in the art we present to you. Remember&hellip; everything we release is cool to share! Always keep the music moving&hellip; share it&hellip; blog it&hellip; podcast it! If you&rsquo;re in radio&hellip; support independent music and broadcast it!</p>
