THIS MUSIC PORTAL SNAPS AND CRACKLES, BUT DEFINITELY DOES NOT GO POP. by Joe Shepter
"Check this out," says Tom Grueskin, sputnik 7.com's executive vice president of products.
On a screen in the company's war room, an Elvis impersonator croons out Nirvana's "Come as You Are."
"This guy just put out an album called Gravelands, in which he only covers songs by dead artists," he says, beaming like a proud parent. "You won't find this kind of music anywhere except on sputnik7.com."
"We have no interest in Mariah Carey, and unless she does a major about face in her career, we never will," adds CEO David Beal, whose green-tinted hair only seems to punctuate his point. "We're not trying to be all things to all people."
