This week, I plan on rolling out a new feature on The Utube Blog called “uTunes.” The “u” stands for undiscovered talent, and “Tunes,” of course, means music. My basic goal is to identify some undiscovered musicians or singers on YouTube who might be worth a listen. I can’t guarantee that my music selections will ever be of the caliber of Terra Naomi, nor can I guarantee that I will be able to find that many artists who are worth your time on YouTube. (If I don’t, I just won’t post uTunes.)
But I will try my best to find some artists for you to notice. And I’m open to your suggestions, especially of artists who have posted their own original music on YouTube. Covers are OK, but original music is even better. If you’d like to recommend some unknown musicians with videos on YouTube or elsewhere, please send an email to: utunes.theutubeblog [AT] gmail.com. Thanks.

Maybe it would be better if you have a uTunes category on this blog and if it takes off, then give it its own blog. This way you will see just how much quality stuff you can find and bring attention to the category.
Carve out an area in the menu for it and feature it every so often. I also say don’t limit yourself to YouTube. Eventually you should try to include MySpace, Google and maybe MetaCafe, Grouper and DailyMotion.
