These new tiny tiny controls from Korg seem pretty damn cool. I am sure the is a market for these with all the mobile muscians out there. What took so long.
Desktopvibes same how nice images of some cool desktop areas. So if you workspace needs some work take a look.
I have been listening to quite a bit of 8-bit music lately. I get all nostalgic think about old video games. I must have rubbed off on my buying habits because I brought a CD for the first time for ever. I used to spend all my money on music in my starving dropping out of college days. I used to wait in line at midnight to get new releases. I kind of miss CD’s but the digital download is just to easy and practical. What inspired this purchase was Unicorn Dream Attack’s Love Bits. It is a damn good album if you like chiptune and 8-bit music. I don’t mind at all giving a little notice little artist in the big bad music world.
Oh, here is a vid of Les Paul & Mary Ford having a laugh and performing a little just because I think Les Paul is awesome.
I have written a guide to having a key chain studio. The idea is basically turning a USB memory stick into a DAW. Even if this doesn’t sound that appealing to you there is a lot more info on applications that run off portable drives that would be useful to almost anyone. It is a little too long for these pages so you can find it at here.

It looks pretty cool. I think it would be good for those that just need 1 great tool and don’t want to fuss about with a lot of software. It just might fit that bill. At over $500 & 5 gigs it better do almost every thing even with the controller.
