At GROM Audio, we really love music. That is
what has driven us to develop car kits to access hand-held devices to your car
stereo system more efficiently and safely. It is also why we developed
smart-phone apps like the AALinQ Music Player, a safe and driver-centric app designed
for you to listen to your favorite artists while on the road.
GROM believes that one fun way to experience
music safely while driving is creating playlists. These lists of songs you
generate are an easy way to listen what you want to hear while on the road
without having to make changes while driving.
This why we have recently started to create
some of our own playlist at SoundCloud for your enjoyment!

For the month of October, we have collected a great introduction to the
wonderful world 20s and 30s hot dance bands and musicians. The big band era which dominated the 1930s
music scene incorporate jazz into a more palatable format but did so while
integrating other forms popular music in their sets. The 1930s Jazz became the mainstream music
particularly with young people on the campuses of American colleges and high
schools. Slowly but surely, Jazz became the mainstream music for all
ages.
Louis Armstrong, the most influential Jazz musician, began his individual music career in the 1920th.
Swing and Charleston are widely danced across America and outside of US. The Charleston was first composed by James P. Johnson, and hold its popularity for an entire decade. Swing Era started around 1935 and held its popularity until the late 1940th. The swing was later revived in the other forms such as gypsy swing, swinging pop and others. Swing style is incorporated in the works of several 21st century musicians.
Blues became a part of the popular American music in the 1920th. The classic female Blues singers of that times include Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey. In the 1930th the pure form of Blues was replaced by so-called Swing Blues.
