It’s been about a month since we peeked behind the curtains to see what the Heavy Blog staff is (really) listening to. We start our three-part update after the jump.
It’s true for all of us, there’s the music you SAY you’re listening to and then there’s the music you’re (really) listening to. So the idea here is to hook up our staff, some famous musicians, and you up to the truth test. For people who have last.fm, the Scrobbler keeps track of what you’re (really) listening to and this site makes the 3×3’s. For those who don’t, we go on the honor system and you can build the 3×3’s here.
This is the second time we hooked the Heavy Blog staff up and displayed what they’re really listening to (this was the first). It was so much fun the first time, we have 15 Heavy Bloggers who volunteered this time. So we will split it up into three parts and post them throughout this Sunday afternoon. So here’s what we’re (really) listening to, part one.
