About
Launched very quietly in August of 2011 by one of the founders of popular New York music blog Lucid Culture, New York Music Daily is a different kind of rock music blog for a post-Facebook, revolutionary-era future. You can visit New York Music Daily whenever you want: there’s nothing for sale here and no spam or apps to pester you or keep track of your whereabouts. New York Music Daily is just here for you if you’re looking for music that’s too smart, too edgy and too nonconformist for the one-percenter Bushwick and Echo Park blogs, the corporate media, and those who imitate either of them. There’s something new here 365 days a year, pretty much every day: free downloads, videos, live streams, concert and album reviews and a monthly New York City live music calendar which serves as a foundation for most of the coverage here. Born out of a punk rock sensibility, informed by history, inspired by the freedom fighters who are risking everything to reclaim the world for the 99% of us who’ve been excluded from the debate over our future for too long, New York Music Daily is an under-the-radar soundtrack for our party for the right to fight.
Are monsters made, or are they born this way? You decide. Visit frequently, and you can help create one.
I’m sold on this intro alone. It’s very rare to find great writing about great music. Rock on NYMD!
Just one correction: Pierre de Bréville was not an early Romantic composer. He lived from 1861 to 1949, was a pupil of Cesar Franck and wrote in the post Wagnerian style typical of the Franck School. The works on the September 19th program at Symphony Space were composed from 1930 to 1945.

Thank you very much for a very well written article about myself and my challenge, in depth articles like this mean so much to an independent artist like myself.
I liked your interpertation of my poems/verses.
You have a fantastic site going on here.

Nice writing. Just that alone is worth a response. If it’s about music then it’s even better.
