This thread is for discussing and hopefully organizing an idea brought up in the "http://www.musicbanter.com/announcem...days-like.html" thread.

The idea is for each week on musicbanter to have a theme, f.ex big beat week or swing jazz week. A thread about the theme which possibly includes a compilation could be made for each week, but what we hope most is that it will inspire members to check out new music and write about it, f.ex in their journals.

Actually, it doesn't have to be each week even, it could be every other week or even theme months. Let's discuss it here!


Here's a list of suggestions for weeks that I've thrown together. If I was to make a calendar, I'd just find a way to randomize this list! If you see something you don't like for other reasons than you have no particular love for that genre (perhaps you think many of the genres are too specific), please write a post about it.
