![]() In an age where
looks and presentation are everything the music video is almost as
important as the song itself. Hell, it may be even more important. When
MTV announced at the start of this decade that they were dropping the
word music frome it's logo, the the music world and the public cried
foul and protested the cable network
abandoning all that made it great in the first place for the
sort of reality television that gets sneered at yet has proven time and
again to be good for ratings. When MTV made this announcement we
we
at ROCKWIRED were unphased. Music videos were a tertiary concern for
the network at that time and YOUTUBE was the place to go if you wanted
to see a new music video. ROCKWIRED has always been on the side of the
indepedent artist so you can imagine how excite we were when our
friends at RADIO KSCR decided to lauch a music video awards show
highlighting music videos from independent music artists from numerous
genres and walks of life. We were all to happy to publish the official
guide for their first ever music video awards show but in doing so we
were blown away by the number of nominees and the quality of the music
videos. There iare tons of great stuff out there but sadly there isn't
much of a forum for it these days and because of that ROCKWIRED
MAGAZINE gives it up for RADIO KSCR and gives out a hearfelt
congratulations to this years winners for standing out in the crowd.
