Youtubedoubler Video Mashups

Ok while this is pretty much one of the dumbest things ever, I for some reason still managed to waste way too much time making horrible horrible “youtube mashups”. It’s simple enough, just paste in the URL’s of two different youtube videos, and then watch the mess unfold.

After months of waiting the Korg Nanoseries controllers have finally been released, and I can’t wait for mine to arrive. Too bad I didn’t wait to order mine as I just found out they are now coming in black as well, which appears to make them look a tad less toy-ish…oh well.

Recognizing that there are simply too many speaker brands and models out there for general consumers to be able to make any sense of, Sound & Vision Magazine recently evaluated a huge selection of speakers, and named their “Top Speakers in Every Class”. Among the included categories are 5.1 home theater systems, compact home theater, stand alone subwoofers, and two channel holdouts.

Soundgarden Speaker System

What do you get when you try to combine eco-consciousness, a speaker system, and Japanese design? Well, you get this weird Sound Garden concept from JVC.

Aside from the obvious plant growing out of the top of the speaker, the concept features a full hi-fi speaker system with bass-reflex ports, and is made entirely of “eco-plastic”. It was also designed to allow you to connect several of them together to make some sort of eco-music-garden of sorts.

People have re-used old vinyl records for all types of purposes, this being just another example…kind of a waste if you ask me.

If for some odd reason you need to carry around a speaker the size of your cell phone, then I suppose this Zumreed Turntable Speaker would be a good choice. The volume is controlled by turning the platter, and the speaker has a battery which can be recharged via USB.

It comes in three colors, black, white and orange, and is available for about $32 from Dreams6.

Despite the seemingly endless supply of these custom sequencers recently, I’m still not quite bored of them. This one is called the Monome, and features a grid of backlit keypads that light up when pressed. It connects to your computer via USB, and comes in 3 models: 256-button ($1400), 128-button ($800), and 64-button ($450).

Red Bull DJ Table

Red Bull has always shown an active interest in popular youth culture, so it didn’t come as much of a surprise to learn they recently teamed up with Canadian design company Cocoon to make a DJ table that represents “Red Bull’s sponsorship of an actual nightlife experience”, presumably to complement their upcoming contest to crown NYC’s top nightlife promoter.

The table features a backlit logo panel, ventilation for laptops, slots for LP’s and CD booklets, and a rather peculiar cutout on the bottom of the table to feed your cords…find out what I mean after the jump.

SoundCloud.com

Ok so being as how I’m sure most of you have quite the addiction to file sharing websites like zshare, I felt it was proper to share this new site called SoundCloud.com, which I think might change the game when it comes to sharing music. Just watch the video and see for yourself.
