Classic Youtube Moment... RIP Movie Preview Guy Don LaFontaine

I was introduced to Pablo Francisco by Professor Green when we were up in Nottingham for a Clipse gig and since then I have always been watching this guy whenever I need some good banter. This for me this is my favourite sketch of his, a tribute to the legendary voice of the movie preview guy who sadly passed away earlier this 

year.

Able to scratch?

The last 10 years have seen a major development in the audio technology scene with software such as logic, pro tools, and cubase changing the way music is made in any genre. The software which stands out among them all has to be the innovative Ableton Live, allowing you to stretch and mashup loops and samples in a very creative way. Ableton have just announced a partnership with Serato (the leader in software scratch software) which will see a nice integration between the 2 software companies. Ableton is already a firm favorite among the electronic DJs (myself included) but now with a link with serato, the DJ door is firmly open to whole new level of creativity.

SIGN THIS PETITION IF YOU HAVE ANY MORALS...

Someone put this on my facebook page and when I had a read I couldn't believe someone could do this. Sign this petition to ban Michael Vick from the NFL after he was recently charged for the fighting and murdering of Pitbull Terrior dogs on his land in Virginia and was charged a mere twenty three months and to no surprise will come out early. He's clearly a waste guy so don't let him make that NFL money! SIGN NOW

Beat that box . . .

Everyone knows about beatboxing these days, the art of making beats, sounds, music with a mic and your mouth. Legends like Rahzel, Bizmarkie, Faith SFX and even Jacko have been known to bust a few beats. Someone you may not have heard about is UK based Shlomo. Being featured on Jooles Hollands show on the BBC, and a number of other shows and festivals, Shlomo is pushing the envelope that bit further. He is playing in covent garden tonight with his vocal orchestra (check the video above to get an idea of what you might see).

Lappy Heatwave . . .

Ok, so how many of you own a laptop? Out of that how many of you own a MacBook Pro? The heat given off these things at the bottom is enough to cause a drought in the amazon rain forest! Trying to use these machines on your lap is a challenge as you will prob only last 5 minutes before being burnt to a crisp. Not anymore! Logitech have announced the Lapdesk. Its basically a comfortable cushion with a hard flat top for the laptop. Pretty simple but useful ideas for those who live with a laptop around the house.

Due out early 2009 for approx £30. Click here to check out more info.

The Camera Killer . . .

Canon have announced their new SLR camera, the Canon EOS 5D MkII. I have an interest in photography, but have never really been interested in camera, but this camera is something else. The only way to explain it is to watch this clip by Vincent Laforet who managed to get his hands on the new canon and shot this in a weekend to show of its amazing ability in low light conditions. I want one of these cameras!

But Who Is Watching The Watchmen?

Crazy New Film Coming To Our Theater Screens In March 09!

Watchmen is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the "Doomsday Clock" - which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union - is permanently set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion - a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers - Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is watching the watchmen?
