Holy hell, there's a Lionel Ritchie album in our lounge. Someone get me some tongs and a shovel.
Theory: Volvos bought by people prone to colds. Feeling unwell, found myself mulling rental of VC90 for trip. Seemed safe & comforting. Ugh.
Impressed w, quality of U2 streamed gig. Perfectly tolerable in fullscreen on a 15" MBP. Bit turgid on the music front, though.
Will be interesting to see if YouTube/Google's servers are up to livecasting this U2 gig in anything approaching reasonable quality.
I have done nothing that justifies getting a sore throat and I demand that it stop now.
Some arse has a new Wavedrum up on eBay for $1,299. 2X the retail price.
I just saw someone retweet a FollowFriday post because it included them. I'll thank you not to tweeterbate in public.
My tolerance for alcohol appears to have regressed to that of a 14-year-old. Early night for Grandad.
It's like synthesis in stop-motion; also like folding the paper after you draw the head and having someone else continue with the torso.
Working with just a Roland SP404SX and a mic and building sounds through successive stages of resampling with effects is interesting.

Finished reading Coupland's "Generation A" last night. Great, but ends like a short story. Wanted/needed more detailed conclusion.
RT @bengoldacre: Guardian gagged from reporting parliament: ok, this is *seriously* out of hand now http://www.guardian.co.uk/media...

Detox. At least a week that bans lots of things ending in -ine and -hol.
If you're going to tag an iPhone AR app due to "mature themes" and "sexual content" you're as good as giving the world the same rating...
First thoughts on the new Korg Wavedrum - http://junai.tumblr.com/post...
"Dog-sodomisingly" is my adverb du jour (it's raining and I'm knackered).
My Wavedrum appears to have shipped two weeks ahead of schedule. [plays air riff in honour of the Electronic Drum Gods]
Saffire's Apollo 11 speech for Nixon. Rupert Brooke crib at end is clumsy, but fascinating as history: http://gawker.com/5369364... (via @ryanblock)
Cat has just taken off across the lounge with wheelspin worthy of a 70s car chase scene. Cause: small child miming to Celine Dion on TV.
AudioBoo: Local festival, Naka-Meguro http://audioboo.fm/boos...
God, the monomachine is such a good bit of kit. Sometimes feel I could sell everything else and get by with it alone.
Time to hook the Infernal Noise Machine up to the x0xb0x, I think. This still isn't so much a song as groping in the dark with rules, tho.
Getting Logic and a Monomachine to play nice in 7/8 proved more difficult than I thought. Phew.
Today is brought to you by the letter M (miami, monomachine, monosynths) and the numbers 7 and 8 (time signature).
Terrible music in Conran shop. Indie-rock Dancing Queen, rawk Hit Me Baby One More Time, art-electro Mr. Sandman--worst-ever covers album.
Never sued anyone before, but I think I'm about to break the habit. Both firms failed to send product after payment and now ignore email.
@edwardreid No, just a new 3G. Was tempted to upgrade but it would have been sth like 5-6x the cost.
I think I'm giving up on iPhone Tweetdeck. The thing showed all overnight tweets 3x in random order, then crashed. Good morning to you too.
