Eleven Years of Making a Scene: Still Independent, Still Publishing, Still Building the Future

Eleven Years of Making a Scene: Still Independent, Still Publishing, Still Building the Future A Milestone Worth Making Noise About On May 1, 2026, Making a Scene celebrates eleven years of continuous publication, and in the fast-moving world of independent music media, that is no small thing. Websites come and go. Blogs burn bright and disappear. Social platforms change the rules. Algorithms bury good work under noise. But Making a Scene has kept showing up, posting new content virtually every day and building one of the most active independent music archives on the web. For eleven years, Making a Scene has stood with the independent music community. Not just the stars. Not just the artists with major backing. Not just the names already sitting on top of the industry machine. Making a Scene has focused on the working artists, the touring musicians, the songwriters, the bands, the producers, the engineers, the reviewers, the interviewers, the fans, and the people who keep real music alive long after the hype machine moves on to something else. http://www.makingascene.org
