Vemedio – Media Software for Mac and iPhone.

Between the music and photo apps, I keep my iPhone pretty busy.. Picked up a nice app over the weekend to beef up things on the music-side.. Snowtap for the iPhone is priced perfectly at $1.99. I’d been using FStream for a while to listen to saved streams and custom add internet radio streams.. But FStream had a few buggy bits that were a little irritating. The files saved were needlessly huge, and if I got a call or some inturruption while listening to a recorded stream, I’d have to start over with no ability to pause or jump anywhere in the recording.. A pain when you’re driving needless to say…

Enter Snowtape… First off, just a much smoother/slicker app experience… Very smooth and flowing. The ability to trim audio, save and organize for later is fantastic… Adding favorites is a piece of cake and the list of included stations in its search is huge… But I really loved the ease of which I could add the custom streams not found in their list but from sites I had found along the way…

So far after a few days, virtually NO hiccups whatsoever… The auto tagging and art tweaking features are nice but for me it’s the smooth interface and ease of recording that had me sold… My only gripe (and minor at that) would be having the ability to make sub-folders or categories with the favorites (I’ve got 42 in there so far so I’ve always got to scroll that list instead of jumping to a specific bunch…), and baing able to rename a favorited station (WCSB – 89.3 Cleveland for example shows up as N/A because they must not be streaming the call letters in their stream…Would be nice to adjust that…).. Overall tho, great app… I guess it’s also a Mac streaming radio app so those of you on macs may want to check that out…

Beck Enlists Liars, St. Vincent, Os Mutantes To Cover INXS Kick | Stereogum.

Nice quick read and a very cool video. Beck has been doing a few of these where he gets a group of folks together to delve into recording albums by artists they like. Really dig this choice of lp’s and I can’t wait to see what the rest of the tracks sound like…

Very cool to see the studio interaction and process through parts of this video…

Record Club: INXS “Guns In The Sky” from Beck Hansen on Vimeo.

So I’ve been wonderin why “Telephone” kept stickin in my head and it finally dawned on me that it meshed up nice with Smells Like Teen Spirit. So, how do you get a song out of your head? Mash it with another song and get them both stuck in your head of course… Be warned, It’s a little rough at some spots but overall it came out okay. Couldn’t get this wordpress player to go bigger so feel free to click fullscreen as well on the vid…
If ya like here’s a link to the audio file as well…

What better way to start of a drizzly Monday morning than a nice bit of creepy electronica… Listen to this with headphones while sleeping and enjoy mental weirdsies…

Mustard Pimp – 24 Jack Bauer Mixtape!! « wizards are better.

Holy hell. How does someone have the time? Still, very cool idea… Broken out into hour mix segments of various styles, its 24 hours of mix goodness…

The Daysleepers- Drowned In A Sea Of Sound.

Wow! This is one of those albums that kinda weaves you through a pleasant batch of emotions and styles. Stirs up memories of early 90′s shoegaze. There’s hints of Catherine Wheel, The Mighty Lemon Drops, Lush, The Cure, Chameleons etc… I’ll be keeping an eye out for a tour from them.
