passion

I’ve been playing with Ableton again, this time with some old favorites from 1989.

I experimented this time with running regular and accapela tracks together, and there is some flanging in there too for good measure.

Track Listing
Adeva – Respect – 119bpm
28th Street Crew – I Need A Rhythm – 129.3 bpm
Kariya – Let Me Love You Tonight (12 inch mix) – 111.7 bpm
Frankie Knuckles – Your Love (Original) – 117.6 bpm
Candi Staton – You Got The Love – 111.5 bpm
Candi Staton – You Got The Love (Accapella) – 110.8 bpm
Corporation Of One – The Real Life – 119.8 bpm
Loretta Holloway – Love Sensation – ~116.0 bpm
Black Box – Ride On Time – 118.7 bpm
Groove Is In the Heart – Deee-Lite – 120.9 bpm
Simon – Free At Last – 133.9 bpm
Illusion – Why Can’t We Live Together – 112.9 bpm

Runtime: 37:02

I saw this on B3TA and have been addicted ever since. As the quote says, there is almost always some second rate porn image, so be warned (PS, that’s not why I’m addicted).

Tracks the 30 most recent photos to be uploaded
to Livejournal. It’s interesting to just keep
refreshing, although every page is guaranteed a
cat, some porn, a teenager looking thoughtful
and someone selling cheap clothes.

I found a picture of our house on live.com – this is the day we moved in over 2 years ago – hence the van and the jeep parked on the grass.

I just posted on Facebook how I love being a geek.

At the moment I’m alone at home, with both the amps kranked up and sharing the same source via iTunes. There are no neighbors and the house really is shaking at the moment, and I have a huge grin on my face.

I can’t believe how good iTunes is good at having 2 sets of remote speakers and managing to keep them both in sync. The 5 KEF speakers in the cinema room along with the 2 tritrix speakers I made last year all sound fantastic, and the tritrix and the kef sub are going low enough to really confuse Moses.

That’s all – just wanted to say how much fun it is. :D

I’m pleased to say that I think I am done with the redesign of Jalapeno.

I feel that the new design is nice and simple, but has enough style to look nice (I also love the grass effect at the bottom). If you are using a decent browser everything has nice rounded corners

I also have included a twitter feed (bottom) and a link to my latest music listenings from last.fm (bottom) and picture uploads to Flickr (right). (more…)
