East Belfast Residents - 240609

East Belfast.

I have some noisy neighbours. I recorded them.
It is very revealing.

DOWNLOAD the mp3 of my neighbours.

Upsetting part:
3.06 - Packy Blackmore. Fuckin'. It's full of packies, blacks and chinks...

Noise pollution/comedy/bloody typical part:
4.30 - BALLBAG!

I'm moving to a new place soon.

Vinyl to Sample - Lied Und Land

Lied Und Land - Volkslieder Aud Deutschland is a collection of German folk songs ripped from flexi disc.

This little disc was warped when I got it, but I think the distortion adds an interesting wonky dimension to the sound.

One person has noted that listening to this kind of music increases the desire for cold beer. Enjoy the crackly goodness.

BEW - DJ and LIVE - Saturday - 040709

ELECTRONIC CRECHE: B. E. W. / 4 JUL 09 / 2:00 PM / / ULSTER HALL / FREE

I learned a lot about Resolume Avenue last weekend. I got my Korg NanoKontrol and QWERTY keyboard mapped up. The shows were a success.

Next on the horizon is a two-hour DJ set in the Ulster Hall as part of the Trans Belfast Festival with a special live show later that night as a fundraiser for this year's Oscillations.

Vinyl to Sample - Stylophone

I've decided to share some old chunks of vinyl. I've put up links to ZIPs containing the mp3 files and scans. Hopefully you'll get a few minutes enjoyment listening to this material. If you feel inspired and use it in a remix, let me hear it.

I imagine the inclusion of Rolf Harris on track one should make this worth the download for most people. However if you've got a soft spot for old fashioned organs you might give the tracks from side 2 a play too. Nothing like playing Christmas carols in the office to ensure your co-workers get about their jobs with smiles on their faces, eh?

A few things to bear in mind: These are old discs from charity shops, not mint condition collectors items, you're getting them for free, and this is the dodgy stereo blog, so don't complain about sound quality.

FLOSS

Do you like making music? Do you like programming? Do you like free software? Do you like meeting smart people in comfortable places?

The last session had several people talking about / demonstrating their project made using Super Collider.

Maybe I'll see you at FLOSS tomorrow night?
