  • Wow! @waynehale is on Twitter! Thanks for the headsup, @KeithCowing! #
  • @twxdotnet Yeah, it’s a weird thing. I enjoy the music, but did we really need that much of it? Well, I guess it’s lining the coffers… #
  • Congrats and welcome home to @STS124 crew… meanwhile, trying to motivate myself to start breaking tracks apart… #
  • Breaking tracks into their constituent chunks for uploading. There are worse chores, but it definitely is one. #
  • Uploading 200MB-odd of samples, hoping Lowe’s has Weber grills in stock and they haven’t been snatched up for the other father-types. #

  • Autechre sure has gotten a ton of mileage out of permutating the tracks off of Quaristice. All told, they’ve released 4.8 hours of music… #

Parallels…

You may have noticed my obsession this year with 1968… It’s hard not to see parallels between 40 years ago and the present day. Harold Meyerson has an interesting article about the ‘68 Democratic primary race that points out something that is very accurate in my view…

I tell this tale, of course, not merely to remind us that the better world of which Robert Kennedy so movingly spoke died aborning 40 years ago in Los Angeles. I also tell it because I see a dynamic similar to that between the Kennedy and McCarthy campaigns in the relationship between Barack Obama’s and Hillary Clinton’s equally historic campaigns, and because today’s Democrats have been given a chance — as they were not in 1968 — to come together and make the kinds of changes they have only dreamed of over the past four decades. You would think — well, hope — that after 40 years, this time they’d get it right.

Logic Pro: About the 8.0.2 update

100+ fixes and changes. Hadn’t noticed too many issues with 8.0.1, but I’m going to roll the dice. Keeping fingers well crossed…

Do see a few things that should help, especially with handling of frozen tracks… More as I find it.

More Chaos in Myanmar

Myanmar Death Toll Reported at Nearly 4,000 - New York Times

мебелиfurniture BulgariaThe death toll from the devastating cyclone in Myanmar over the weekend escalated to nearly 4,000 people on Monday, with thousands of others still missing and at least one entire village wiped out, state television and radio reported.

If the reports are accurate, the death toll would be the biggest from a natural disaster in Asia since the tsunami of December 2004, which devastated parts of Indonesia, Thailand and other parts of south Asia.

My Gearlust: Tenori-On

Okay, so my first true gearlust in a very, very long time. I’ve known about these things for a good long while, but I’ve been keeping myself blissfully ignorant of these devices, but have decided once and for all - MUST HAVE. The bad news? According to CDM this morning, they launch May 1 for $1200, and only 100 will be available, with 100 more available per month after that. I don’t want to think about what the demand will be, but somehow, someway….

In the meantime, allow Toshio Iwai demonstrate via live performance:
