Owl City

If you've run through your The Postal Service albums for the hundredth time and want some new material, well you're out of luck. But if you're looking for a substitute, then Owl City may be just the thing.

Upconverting Super8

Upconverting Super8 The Cinematic Orchestra didn't simply become the super chill, dramatic, Antony-and-the-Johnsons -collaborating band that we hear on Ma Fleur (or even the amazing soundtrack for Disney's French nature film Les Ailes Pourpres - yes, only the French would make a feature film documentary about the plight of flamingos) overnight. Their sound was originally that of a big, mean, trip-hop, nu-jazz band on the cutting-edge Ninja Tune label back in 1999 when they released Motion . Dig through their archives and you'll find live performances (i.e. [...]

Cudi On The Street Brand

Cudi On The Street Brand I sometimes stumble upon a track that has a familiar beat, but I can't quite put my finger on where I've heard it before. Hunting down the beat can be fun, especially when you find that it came from an unlikely source. I'm sure you know what I mean. That brings us to Kid Cudi and his out-of-left-field sampling of Menahan Street Band 's 70s-funk-inspired Traitor on his Solo Dolo track (from Man On The Moon). Honestly, I wish Cudi had sped up the beat and incorporated more [...]

There's Sound In The Clouds

This post has two purposes: to feature an amazing artist that I recently stumbled upon as well as a music-centric social network that I can't believe I didn't discover sooner. First, the social network: SoundCloud.com The idea is a mix of user contributed content sharing, like Flickr , and peer feedback like Facebook. The concept is great and the execution is really where this site shines. Check out the demo video: And the music: Scrimshire As in [...]

Gelatinous Snakes

Gelatinous Snakes A cloudbuster : (seen at bottom, right of center, not the sculpture) a device intended to influence weather, supposedly by altering levels of "atmospheric orgone". Not all funk sounds like it belongs on a porno soundtrack. Nor does it always perfectly fit a slo-mo pimp-walk montage. When it comes from Orgone , however, it usually does. And when I say Orgone , I'm not talking about the universal bioenergetic force lying behind and causing much, if not [...]

I Computered It

So if you've ever submitted a form on the internet (purchased something or created some sort of online user account), you've probably used reCAPTCHA. It's the box at the bottom of the form that says something like "type the words that you see in this image". Well one thing you may not have known is that you are actually helping digitize old text documents. Google just bought reCAPTCHA so we're actually helping Google while they're helping our sites stay secure. Per Google's blog : Since computers have trouble reading squiggly words like these, CAPTCHAs are [...]
