Audioblogs

I’m interested in what I guess would be called audioblogs. It would be a standard blog but with audio links. I went record hunting last weekend, and realised I was pretty much looking either at tracks I already knew or at compilations (with lots of things I already knew on them). And I thought an audioblog might have saved me some time …


Here’s what I imagining:
- I’m interested in a range of various artists (e.g. Lou Donaldson, Funkadelic, the JB’s, Dr John …)
- I blog tunes I like: e.g. “Found this on Soul Jazz, really like it, it’s similar to X, they’ve worked with Y before, it’s on this album …” and I’d add an MP3 clip.
- I link to other audioblogs I like
- Some of those link to mine
- Hey presto, pretty soon I’m aggregating a whole load of interesting new music …

That sort of thing. Does anyone know if there’s an easy way to do this in Movable Type? And (I’m assuming there are but I haven’t managed to find them) does anyone know of blogs already out there that do this?
