Hey Floyd - Jamiroquai (psycho-reggae mix)

Yesterday i mixed the song "Hey Floyd" from the new Jamiroquai album "Rock Dust Light Star".
It was kinda fun. I used the Ableton Live 7 and my Roland keyboard connected to the Line6 UX2.
Enjoy

"Strange Animals" no. 3

After months without publishing about this, here's the return of the section i made about strange animals.

This month's strange animal is Blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus)


- lives in the deep waters of the south pacific ocean
- his flesh is a gelatinous mass with less density water. This allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming.








conservation status: Endangered

this animal is currently facing extinction due to deep-sea fishing

jupiter cosmic sounds

 "Fascinating recording of Jupiter sounds (electromagnetic "voices") by NASA-Voyager.
 The complex interactions of charged electromagnetic particles from the solar wind , planetary magnetosphere etc. create vibration "soundscapes". It sounds very interesting, even scary."

just watch

Kanye West & Bon Iver !?

Yes, Kanye West and Bon Iver.
Kanye just released his new album (My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy) with the collaboration of Justin Vernon, the frontman of Bon Iver. They seem to be good pals now.
And yeah, it's strange. It's not everyday that we see an indie rock/folk avant garde experimental musician working with an hip-hop guy, but the songs sound pretty well.

Here's one of them in which is taken a sample from the Bon Iver's song "Woods":
