Rokia Traore’s Mali Goes West…

When Malian singer-songwriter Rokia Traore goes west:

CYBERCULTURE > The New iTunes > Spotify

We all have probably downloaded a track from Apple’s iTunes website, but now there is a site that is growing very popular named Spotify that users can listen to music for free (with advertising) or pay for a subscription that has more features, higher speeds and greater access.

CYBERCULTURE > The New Social Network: Google Plus

The new release of another Google product seems to be their most promising. Google Plus is the new social network that has harnessed the attributes of some of the popular ones with the touch that only Google can create.

CYBERCULTURE > Mobile App > CultureNOW

The CultureNOW app transforms New York City into one big apple museum. This application is great for tourists, commuters, pedestrians and bikers.

CULTURE ON A BUDGET > Autumn Savings

Summer is coming to an end in a month and many of you have already taken your vacations. While you may have used most of your vacation time, there may be a couple days that you can use towards a long weekend. There are a nice amount of websites that can save you time and money with planning your extended weekend excursion.

Electronic Dance

Bronx-born Jennifer Lopez put a hint of house music back on the map with “On the Floor” in 2011. The song is an infusion of dance-pop, electropop and electro-house. “On the Floor” samples the 1989 song, “Lambada” by Kaoma, a multinational French pop group. Koama’s members were from Guadeloupe, Brazil, and Martinique.
