I left a comment on the site itself (as there were currently no comments and I thought it would make your site look busier) but it doesn't appear to have been accepted. The feedback I provided was genuine, and in no way mocking your blog.
You have a playlist of songs that automatically play everytime I load a page on your site. The playlist doesnt appear to be random so it is the same song starting over and over again everytime I view a new page (when it doesnt return an error that is).
Everyone of your visitors will have a different taste in music and by blasting your sh1te dance music you run the risk of scaring visitors away  Unless you can find music that appeals to every one of your visitors I personally feel that the music should not auto play.
If I want to listen to music whilst browsing the internet I will load iTunes or Windows Media Player, heck I might even pop a CD on if Im feeling retro. I wouldn't go to your site purely for the music so I really dont understand why it is there?
The only exception for music being allowed to autoplay would be on a major international musicians website, and even then it should have an easy-to-spot OFF button, and it should only auto-play on the homepage.
That is the one reason I hate myspace, every page I viewed has music autoplaying and it is always crap that I dont want to listen to
Your blog looks really cool and I enjoyed reading through it but if I have to keep turning the music off on every page I view it would eventually drive me away to find a less noisy blog
Please don't be offended by this, I am trying to provide constructive criticism to help improve a site that looks like it has potential.
