Take a Break from SL® and Listen to Fretkllr


While surfing the net for information for an upcoming article, I stumbled - yes, it was serendipitous - upon the YouTube® home of Fretkillr, a singer/guitarist who has posted some of the freshest, unadulterated music you're going to find.

As in the picture on the right, all you see is his guitar and hands, and all you hear is his voice. If there were justice in the music world, he'd have more of a presence than a bunch of YouTube postings. The guy is just wonderful. His voice is not perfect but man oh man can he make you listen! it just sounds... right.

Treat your ears to something deliciously tasty and hop on over to Fretkillr's YouTube channel. Make sure you listen to the stunningly well-crafted Somewhere Over the Rainbow, a cover that is just magnificent in its simplicity and well-crafted in its execution. Yum yum!

Music Music Music

Now I own my own land and have total control over the Media settings, I got myself a radio. After careful research, I opted for the Alvargi Signature Internet Radio, a marvel at one prim and access to hundreds of radio stations.



The really cool feature is that you can search by genre and artist. I typed in the string "/21 search Prog" and up popped 40 stations offering Progressive Rock. Similarly, typing "/21 search George Michael" listed all his songs currently being played. Amazing. You can edit the defaults to add you own favorites.

Almost set for party party party!!
