Expanding Content On The Blog?

I'm trying to make a push for more content on the staff blog and more consistent content at that. I think it's a really underused part of the site that could be turned into something really cool if it was used and maintained on a regular basis.
1 Track of the day every day


With so much new music coming out and with ease of access to singles be they promotional streams, youtube links, or whatever it wouldn't be too hard to have a constant pool to pull from. Also it's a great way to show off and find new music.
2 Interviews


Who doesn't like interviews? honestly.
3 More concert write ups


it seems like at least half of the staff attends at least a concert or two every month. write ups no matter how small or for what size of bands can be a great way to bridge the gap between the live experience and the recorded experience and also let people know what's up and who is on the road as the concert going populace of sputnik is also quite high.
4 


regional/business/insider whatever type shit that can highlight new things or new perspectives. be it a look at labels or a look at a certain local scene or a critique on certain trends and fads within genres/the industry as a whole.
5 consistency


i know people have got their own shit to take care of and finding the time to write a review let alone a piece or editorial can be be a hard thing to do but with how many people are on staff if we can pump out one "feature"/write-up/interview/etc a week while keeping the track of the day section going strong this is more than enough material to help expand the blog into something people will actually look at instead of occasionally glance over.
