The Future of DVD’s?

AnimeNews Network has an interesting interview/article with Sentai Filmworks announcement that in 2019 it will phase out the majority of it’s DVD production and go primarily to a Blu-ray production.  This will probably be the trend with other distributors as well.  Think back to when VHS’ were phased out, now it’s DVD’s turn.  Such is the march of time, but in reality our household still has a VHS player to play some of the VHS’ that don’t have an updated format.  Here’s the link over to the article

Conventioner’s Single “Trouble”

Conventioner has a smoky sound to his voice that draws you into his single “Trouble” from his Legacy EP.  This single would feel comfortable in a romantic movie, specifically the part where the leads realize they are in love with each other and are struggling to express themselves.  The instrumentals have a nice smooth flow to them that carry the listeners along the verse to it’s conclusion.  Conventioner has a second EP out now entitled Love or Protection and he wanted our listeners to get a taste of his music with “Trouble”.  So as you listen check out both of this EPs on you digital vendor of choice.  Here’s Conventioner’s single “Trouble” through SoundCloud – Richard:

Between the Rain’s Single “Mudroom”

Between the Rain is giving our listeners some hard rock to get us driving forward through the day, with their single “Mudroom”.  For me this is some nice old school hard rock with the guitar pushing the song forward and the vocals being sung with some attitude.  Really nice job and fans for this genre will love their single.  Definitely interested in what the band will give us next.  So get some attitude going with Between the Rain’s single “Mudroom” through SoundCloud – Richard:
