Having recently redone the site, our new twitter account is well…..a little bit paltry. But coming together to start a new account for the new TMM has caused a bit of discussion about those essential tweeters.
We do have some people we are big fans of and a #ff just aint going to cut it for us at the moment. So here is our list of 20 tweeters you need in your life – in no particular order of course.
@fyang The Twitter account for Chromewaves, the most detailed (to the point of OCD) music blog about featuring all the minutiae of music news daily.
@mattpicasso The account of Matt Jordan, well respected for his blog he lives music and works in one of the world’s largest independent record stores.
@fabtasticmusic Our favourite Aussie and contributor here at TMM; is you like your pop, you’ll love this.
@chartrigger Another pop devotee, with a fair old helping of humour too.
@xolondon Follow or miss out on Stephen Sears sharing musical fact nuggets with regularity.
@sweepingnation It’s always helpful to be slightly ahead of the zeitgeist, and following the Sweeping the Nation twitter account is one way.
@wearepopslags All the latest camp news with their tongue pressed firmly against their cheek.
@nialler9 A force of the Irish music scene, this is a must for electronica lovers.
@cougarmicrobes With a focus on indie, Camden blogger Boaz knows what he is talking about.
@mrdiscopop Following pop music with love while still taking the piss out of its many ridiculous aspects.
@finestkiss Toby’s ear for a goog song will restore any faith you have lost in US music.
@largeheartedboy David Gutowski’s daily downloads throw up some real treats.
@electroqueer The team behind this account throw up a constant stream fo fresh electronic music for your branded audio device.
@thepopcop All the latest from the Scottish music scene.
@stereokillnet Good for cutting analysis of indie music.
@sluttyfringe The Slutty Fringe DJs will keep you up to date with the London scene.
@poptastic Jessica has built up two respected blogs (though one is a bit lapsed right now) and works in the music industry – this comes through in her tweets.
@indiemusicfiltr This account is bound to throw up your new favourite band sooner or later.
@themusicslut It’s surprising she gets any time for slutting between updating obsessively with some great music tips.
@mychemtoilet Sardonic humour abounds from the My Chemical Toilet guys.
Phew – well get adding and impress your friends with regurgitated knowledge and witticisms passed off as your own.

I love http://www.thedumbingofamerica.net because they interview bands that I dig. Peter Hook, Howard Devoto, Steve Severin, Warpaint, etc.

Presumably there has been some massive breakdown in communication as I’m not listed. Unless of course you’ve seen my rather manic rants and tales from the shower. I shan’t go on. That said there’s a few others saying ‘important’ things about pop in various ways that also don’t appear:
@popjustice
@chemistryisdead
@oneofthosefaces
@thatgrapejuice
@TimeMusic
@pressparty
@4musicgossip

Now I will need to go out of my way to knock the “indie” tag.
