This sounds to me very similar to http://www.idiomag.com/ (which I love!) and IMO it's better to have the most authoritative sources aggregated (like idiomag does) rather than a team of writers. If not, it's a matter of scalability of the whole thing. But I understand that Rivmixx is not only that, so I'll have a closer look. “The tagging system within the site provides a fan with a free online magazine for which they can tailor the content according to their musical preferences.”
