Nipple Scratch



Well as the last real post of the BETA period and the Blogger period we wanted to give you something special. Accidentally we found something special. We were lucky :))))) So we can inform you about the latest DJ technique, the Nipple Scratch. Female DJ's can do it better, but the DJ of the Fat Boys has the tool for it as well ;) WARNING! This might be sexist but it is only fun, don't take it too seriously, this is the AudioPorn Central after all so titties are common here :))))) more DJ/Club Babe pictures at the DJResource.eu

The Ropes: Kill Her Off



Meet the Ropes. They are quite kool and they are our latest myspace friends. The Kill Her Off is a bloody catchy song and it can be really huge. Check it out in their myspace. But who are the Ropes? Here is what they say about themselves: Speaking four languages and intent on becoming fluent in several more, it's easy to see how The Ropes frontwoman Sharon Shy (yes, that is her real name) came to possess such a way with words. Her lyrics are filled with angst suitable for the bright-eyed teen and time-hardened soul alike. Armed with these words, her haunting yet soothing voice is set to a backdrop of noisy guitars and urgent basslines with the occasional moment of calm and tranquility that never seems to last long enough. Mirroring real life, the sound is a mixture of sugar and dirt. Sugar and dirt, ehh :)) We love sugar and dirt ;)

Keepon, the dancing robot



He is Keepon, the dancing robot. Keepon is a small creature-like robot with a soft rubber skin, two cameras in its eyes, and a microphone in its nose. Keepon is designed to interact with children by communicating attention and emotion. It has four degrees of freedom: attention is directed by turning +/-180° and nodding +/-40°, while emotion is expressed by rocking side-to-side +/-25° and bobbing up to 15mm. In addition to his role as a BeatBot, Keepon is used in research on social development and communication. Keepon is a research platform and is not commercially available at this time. But you can see him in many festivals and events and he is even starring in the new Spoon video 'Don't You Evah.' ! You can find these and much more info on Keepon's site.

World Famous Audio Hacker:
Do It Well (D.A.N.C.E. Mix)



The Monday Kick. The happy, positive craziness which helps you to start another week. We will have a fantastic week, I'm sure! This week's kicker is the World Famous Audio Hacker. He just released a brand new track and here is what he has to say about it: - I've been enjoying the new single from Jennifer Lopez's upcoming album. The new single has hit radio airplay but hasn't met a full 12"/EP release yet. So, impatient for remixes, here's the first remix of the track so far. -
Features: Jennifer Lopez - "Do It Well" combined forces with "D.A.N.C.E." by Justice and additional elements from "Fine Time" by New Order and "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee-Gees.
Grab it, turn it loud and have a wonderful week!

Prophet '08.



The rumors are true. (Well, most of 'em, anyway.) Dave Smith has emerged from his underground lair (the Dave Cave?) with a fresh take on a classic, the all new Prophet '08. It is an eight-voice synthesizer with a 100% analog audio signal path. And it will be shipping very soon. More details will be available here on the Web site in a few days. Following hot on its heels will be the Prophet '08 Special Edition, each of which will be hand-signed by Dave and which will feature lighted wheels (RED!) and exotic leopardwood end panels. And for those of you who are wondering what happened to BoomChik, stay calm. Do not panic. Development is progressing nicely. Stay tuned! via midi.blog.hu

Village Idiot:
What Have Muse Done For Me Lately?



We have way too many Janet Jackson mashups nowadays. Maybe the lack of her musical activity is the reason. Do you remember what was the last big thing what she did? No showing a nipple piercing is not musical activity. Village Idiot well spotted this sad situation and he made a great rockin' Janet VS Muse mix for all of us in need. This is really good, Jacko's lilttle sis' maybe never sounded this kool.

New Bruce Springsteen album



'Magic,' Bruce Springsteen's new studio recording and his first with the E Street Band in five years, is set for release by Columbia Records on October 2, 2007. Produced and mixed by Brendan O'Brien, the album features eleven new Springsteen songs and was recorded at Southern Tracks Recording Studio in Atlanta, GA. 'Magic' is the first new studio album by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band since 2002's GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum, number one album 'The Rising' (Columbia Records), which was also produced by O'Brien.

The New Pornographers: Challengers



The New Pornographers formed in 1997, almost immediately recorded the classic "Letter From An Occupant," and it was on. Their three full-lengths (as well as Newman's 2004 solo debut The Slow Wonder) received wild critical and public acclaim, and they continue to enjoy bigger (and taller and smarter) audiences. Challengers continues along the lines of 2005's Twin Cinema, whose "relative melancholy makes it the band's best album yet" [Blender]; indeed, the first track, "My Rights Vs. Yours," is almost a cross between that album's beloved "Use It" and "The Bleeding Heart Show". Dialing back the frantic, these are songs with dynamics and epic sweep. While it's still a "top-down summer power-pop classic" (or any variation thereof that the band's enjoyed over the last several years), this is something more personal, more lasting.
Visit their homepage to grab a bonus mp3 and their myspace to listen the Challengers.

Wanna be in the new Pet Shop Boys video???



Electro-pop pioneers the Pet Shop Boys are seeking 200 people to appear in their new video for upcoming anti-ID card single Integral, for which filming takes place in central London this Tuesday. The video's producers need 200 people to attend Whitefield Memorial Church, 79a Tottenham Court Road on Tuesday afternoon (between 3pm and 7pm) who they want to variously hold up printed frames of the video clip to their faces or move around in the background. "We can't pay anyone, but there will be refreshments," video organiser Jacqui promised, "And it's for a great cause," she added. The video develops Integral's lyrical theme of ID cards and the erosion of civil liberties in the UK by central government and combines a mix of surveillance type footage and information technology. Also embedded in the film are single frames of QR Code, a new Bar Code technology that is readable by the camera in people's mobile phones. The QR Codes contain url destinations that elaborate on the issues, and encourage viewers to get active. "Everyone is welcome to the video, the Boy's wont be there though; we have already filmed them," said Jacqui. "And everyone involved will get a credit at the end of the video, from one of the barcodes. There's no dress code," she added.

So please if you are in the London area this Tuesday and you feel like to be part of this action , don't hold yourselves back, be there! If you want more information we can contact you with the organizers!
