    This is a great article and video about Windows DJ Darek Mazzone during his weekly modern global music show “Wo’ Pop” on KEXP, a radio station broadcasting in Seattle, New York and worldwide on the Web.

    “The PC running Windows is at the center of this... with Windows, you don’t really need to spend a whole bunch of money to get started making stuff and creating. It’s about choice, performance and simplicity.”

    Read the entire Make Your Own Kind of Music – On a Windows PC article on “the Official Microsoft Blog”
