I remember Nine Inch Nails doing something like this about a year ago, and it was really cool. Radiohead is offering four separate instrument tracks, or “stems” (bass, drum, guitar, string, voice), along with their “Nude” single for sale via iTunes for about $6. The challenge? Remix the tracks and upload them for consideration, judgment […]

Two of my favorite electronic bands (and yours?), Daft Punk and Hot Chip, are featured in the new iPhone commercial. Here’s to hoping “Aerodynamic” becomes the new “1234” …

So you’ve gotten an iPhone but all the features have you neglecting your super awesome band that would totally make it if your band-mates would only get serious about it? Now you can have the best of both worlds.

Don’t be too rough on them, they just started practicing like two weeks ago.

This past Sunday night I was able to […]

I knew the new, all-DRM-free Amazon MP3 store would influence me directly at some point. Apple has decided to lower the price of its DRM-free tracks, which up until now cost $1.29, to match their price of their protected tracks at $0.99.
No official word on the reason for the price drop, but one can only […]

If to wake with a start means to rise and shine alert, aware and prepared, as if your morning had already started without you, then today I woke with a finish. The combination of allergies and Chicago’s first truly autumnal weather got the best of me this morning. I must have hit the snooze button […]

George Harrison was the final Beatle to have his solo work added to iTunes, which happened today. Still waiting on actual Beatles music…
