Just recently discovered an interesting compilation called "Christmas Remixed" and "Christmas Remixed 2". There are some pretty sweet remixes of your usual holiday tracks, but here are a few songs I thought were particularly well done:
Bing Crosby - Happy Holiday (Beef Wellington Remix)Bing Crosby - White Christmas (Kaskade Remix)Duke Ellington - Jingle Bells (Robbie Hardkiss Remix)![]() I had been eyeing up the SleepTracker watch, and was pleasantly surprised to receive it as a present for my birthday from my girlfriend a few months back. The concept is genius: Why wake up in the middle of deep sleep, when you can be awakened intelligently at the right time? Here's the perl script (sleeptracker.pl) as well as a helper script I wrote (trackmysleep.pl): From the team that brought you Rock Band and Guitar Hero, a new startup that's a bit hard to describe. It's a little bit game, a little bit social, a little bit music discovery, and a lot of fun. These guys are doing so much right, I don't even know where to begin. I was attracted to their game by a Facebook ad that said "Like Ladytron? We don't have it yet, but we do have a ton of indie electronic music." My kind of website, I thought to myself. Just read this post on TechCrunch talking about Amazon TextBuyIt. There's 2 things interesting to me about this: It's always interesting to see new technology for sound. There's a huge opportunity for someone to create software that's better able to understand music the way a DJ might (BPM, key, etc) and automatically create a mix by beatmatching and cycling through the circle of fifths, for example. |
