I love everything about monome. Hand-crafted in the mountains, grid pattern with orange and gray squares, the technical interest required to really use one to its full potential, and most of all, it is a wide open device with many possibilities.

Take a look at what is possible with one:

And check out some more info. They come in all shapes and sizes nowadays, originally starting with a 40 node grid, and as long as people keep tinkering with them, they will get more and more interesting over time. Brilliant.

And if you are feeling generous my birthday is in November. . .

Listen to some music. . .

Join in the fun. . .

Have a good time!

[THE BEATLES]

Lots of music stuff lately, but animation and technology is on its way, and maybe even a peek at my new place of residence!

Flying Lotus finally spitting out the last of a 3 part EP collection following the release of the Los Angeles L.P. New and interesting stuff as always, with some very interesting interpretations of already complex tracks.

Check out a free track that seems to only be available from Warp:

Auntie’s Lock (with The Life Force Trio)


And a short video for Infinitum:

You can check out the rest of the tracks at Warp Records.

Name the sample and I will give you a handshake. . . or a milk shake, the choice is yours.

Just a few elements of another upcoming track, should be a banger.

It is good to be able to hear these tracks while under construction I think, can’t wait to see what they turn into.

Ekahwerdna back to sampling and what have you, a quick sample from a track currently in progress. From what I hear the hunt is on for some amazing samples, in fact a site may even be in the works. Find a sample, post a track, let others post tracks, listen, enjoy, should be a simple formula, hope it works out soon. Trying to stay rational.
