A couple of obvious errors here, but <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/content/aug2008/db20080822_… encouraging piece</a>, nevertheless. What I <i>especially</i> like, of course, is this little bit:

You can walk by 21 First Avenue on any given day to see some of our city's most beautiful and talented DJs spinning rare and wonderful vinyl. It's true! It's <a href="http://www.eastvillageradio.com/">East Village Radio</a>. There's a big glass window. Look in and you might see Queen Majesty or Melody Nelson or Mark Ronson or a few of the colorfully dressed peeps from The Fader, those taste-makers. In fact, East Village Radio provides more than 70 unique, and often excellent, two-hour shows, covering musical genres from rock and electronic to jazz and folk to roots and reggae. Lots of good stuff.

A while back, out of the blue, I was contacted by audio distributor May Audio Marketing. They wanted to know if I was interested in reviewing any models from the Genius line of German manufacturer ASW Loudspeakers. I have a lot of time for distributors such as May Audio, whose primary role is to promote lesser-known European audio products on this side of the pond. All of May's principal clients&#151;Castle, Enigma, and Gradient speakers; Sonneteer and Sphinx electronics; and Roksan turntable systems&#151;are much better known in their home countries than in the US.
