The Latest! Remastered Led Zepellin, Smashed Bass Guitar, Glee, DJZ, Bandpage, and Soundscan

Jimmy Page is now remastering the Zeppelin discography for a re-release in 2013. They will be in the form of one box set per album.

The bass guitar smashed by Kurt Cobain in the video for Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" will be auctioned off in London. It is expected to be sold between $24,000 and $40,000.

It was to be expected. Glee is taking on PSY's "Gangnam Style" for an episode airing in late November. Actor Kevin McHale of FOX's crazed musical show said, "You know we had to do it."

Turntable.fm founder Seth Goldstein has just launched DJZ.com, an electronic dance music news hub website. With obnoxious reds, pinks, blues, and yellows, DJZ features  artist profiles, a feed of dance music news, a Soundcloud-powered music player, and upcoming shows and festivals.

BandPage, formerly RootMusic, is hosting a session on Google+ Hangouts with CEO J Sider and Incubus manager Steve Rennie. This public music talk show will start at 1:30 and end at 2:00 pm PST today, Nov. 1. Following the hangout, both Sider and Rennie will take open questions from people in the music industry.

This week’s Soundscan charts reveals that (hidden in the shadow of Taylor Swift's Red)Kendrick Lamar's Good Kid M.A.A.D City hit #2 with a little over 240,000 sales. Jason Aldean's Night Train claimed the third spot with 115,976, and Mumford & Sons's Babel dropped to fourth with 53,441.
