ok, here we go. as you can see from the post below, i’ve already got my first wankster ready to defend these crystal castles people, so I’ve decided to write another post with a bunch of links to information that you can read about crystal castles and their lack of originality, dignity, respect for others, braincells (due to constant exposure of ms. glass’s heckle), and among other things - permission to use said artwork and samples. have fun.

#news//theives.named.crystal.castles

so, i’ve been reading a lot about this band called crystal castles lately. apparently this little known (at least to the REAL music world) and little talented duo of plagiarizing kiddies has been ripping off everything from good ol’ chanel’s logo, to some poor artist’s cd cover design. trevor brown is his name,

Crystal Castles steals stuff

and making wierd cd covers apparently is his game - or is it crystal castles’ game just to rip off anything they can get their little mitts on? have you seen them? grubby little pukes from some crap corner of the music market. after reading so much bad stuff about this band (and hearing them - where are my earplugs??) i’ve decided to go on a crusade (yes, another one) against them. not that my opinion counts, but a quick google search about the matters at hand would point you to various others whose opinions DO count.

i just started work on new print media for Your Theatre Company, who have now been booked also at the Worthen - for those that don’t know, the worthen is the hotel that Edgar Allen Poe wrote a number of short stories at. Here is a small 4″ X 6″ copy that will be printed by Flyer Studios.

#news//daniel.hansson.tribute

April 24th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in audio news
this was a story from CDM if you don’t know but, after reading specific parts of the report, i thought that maybe i should post a little about this (i’ll tell you why after). daniel hansson, pictured below, was a co-founder of the wildly innovative elektron. elektron created devices such as the machinedrum and the monomachine, which are intelligent, elegant, exceptional pieces of music creation - with a cult

daniel hanson


following to boot. sadly, daniel died abruptly in a tragic car accident very shortly after arguru (discodsp, imageline, etc.) had passed away in the same manner. in either case, there has been a tribute compilation created called “45 tribute” which has 30 tracks on the cd for $5 bucks. the proceeds are being directed at the world wildlife fund, which was daniel’s favorite charity. peter also reports on CDM that the “organizers don’t have a PR budget for this, so we’re their PR”, and that means a lot. dig up $5 somewhere and pick up this tribute to a revolutionary individual who gave his life to creativity.

#soundsets//synthesis::constructed

April 18th, 2008 | 4 Comments | Posted in sound packs
ok, time for some new free sounds. everybody loves free don’t they? yes, they do. this is a pack of single cycle waveforms for use in Wusikstation and Straightliner VSTi plug-ins, or really any other plug that accepts single cycle waveforms. load them up, mangle them, or whatever. i don’t really care what you do with them. as with the theatrical project i’m working on, i’m releasing these waveforms under the creative commons attributions 3.0 license.


there will also be a variety of soundsets for wusikstation and straighliner that i’ll be releasing that are based off these waveforms, so look out for them when they’re released. i’ll probably stick with the 24 presets-per-pack style thing that i’ve been doing for a while now.
