Bit.trip Beat for wii

Looks fantastic. The bastard child of breakout and the tiny ds homebrew app axe.

Also - The song hosted on Aksys Games' website media section is fabbo. Chiptunes done very nicely.

Gutted. No more musicthing.

Sadly Tom has decided to retire Music Thing. Not much to say other than the combined influence of Tom's amazing, funny and sardonic blogging on MT and Peter Kirn's (of CDM) massive and infectious enthusiasm encouraged (or was the catalyst for) me to start blogging in a more formal sense, and probably also triggered a much more in depth engagement with online culture in general.

Thanks tom mt was awesome and I'm sure the nets would be happy to have you back anytime you decide to set up mt again!

Music Thing no more, for now

It's pretty cool actually, and not a bad way for apple to continue to leverage their hipster cred. The interface looks well thought out and easy to use. The music learning software I've used or sold (back in the day when I was a retail robot) were all pretty awful to use. This looks like not a bad addition and everyones used to paying money in small chunks to apple for things these days, so the paid lessons should go down alright too. No substitute for a proper instructor obviously.

4 Way Korg DS-10 Jam

| No Comments

Dylab has a 4 way Korg DS-10 jam up. I know a lot of us wanted Electroplankton to fill this kind of role and it's really cool to see the DS as instrument thing finally happen. The jam features briefly in the intro this video:

You can visit Dylab's site to listen to the whole thang.

Also he's just released a 4 track EP with hard acid on it. You can have a listen and purchase it from Juno.

Updating onetonne

Well it's the last day of my holidays and I'm spending a bit of time updating onetonne to bring it into the current century. I've thrown out the old template and I have to start from scratch. Hurray for newness! (Sorry if things get broken in the process!)
