Trump Signs Music Law Into Act OK, so Sferikul is not a political site and it never will be. However, I thought this story was an interesting and relevant one, especially for songwriters. On Thursday, October 11, 2018 President Trump signed the Music Modernization Act into law after it passed through congress with flying colors.

Meh or Yeh Album Reviews

abigailpixler5452

  Winter Grit – EP Ane Bjerkan Norway | Folk/Ambient This EP is not due out until February 9, but I had the awesome opportunity to preview it before it drops.

Though the other two tracks on this 3 track EP are decent compositions, I am still stuck listening to track one on repeat. Slowly Collapsing Star evokes so much emotion that it is quite difficult to put into words. I had read a … Continue reading Meh or Yeh Album Reviews
