Student creates first ever Twitter album

kristinagrossmann:

sc140 is an album of digital music written especially for Twitter. Curated by Dan Stowell, who is studying for a PHD at Queen Mary’s Centre for Digital Music, sc140 was inspired by the SuperCollider audio synthesis programming language. Stowell made a tweet containing the instructions on how to make a sound like waves crashing on the shore, and before he knew it people were tweeting back with their own sounds and music. Apparently some composers have so far managed to squeeze as much as five minutes of music into 140 characters. “My granny might raise her eyebrows if I have her sc140 for Christmas”, says Stowell, “but if yours is the Aphex Twin type then she’d definitely love it.” Sorry but my granny is only into dubstep, and she’s moved on from Twitter already.

permalink Because you're all more interested in hearing about what i hate than what i actually like

So ive been running the counter culture (previously known as stuff scene kids should like) for almost a year now, and ive come to the sad sad realization that the majority of my subscribers have no interest in broadening their musical horizions, and only seem to react to my posts if theyre about a band tried and true. That being said, i dont really care…but i know you love to hear me talk shit, so go check out my new post on The Snarky Scenester.

permalink So last night at Cloak and Dagger, this band/group/crew, Ninjasonik played….and generally im not really into hip hop or whatever, but they remixed the best songs( The Death Set’s Negative Thinking, Matt and Kim…), and had crazy brooklyn pride. click on the picture and listen to their Negative Thinking Tight Pants remix on their myspace. You’ll at least get a laugh.
