Finished a new track with NanoStudio

I’ve been a big fan of NanoStudio since it first launched, but I’ve rarely finished anything that I’ve started with it. Today I’ve finished a piece that I began ages ago. It’s an old track that I’ve re-worked and I’m really pleased with it.

AudioShare is an awesome swiss army knife of mobile audio. I used it here to record the track in so I could then move it into …

Which made it sound even better, or at least that’s what I think. The final track will be up on SoundCloud later.

New IFTTT stuff coming to littleBits!

So I got an email saying that there will be outage on the littleBits IFTTT channel on Monday, the 21st. This is because there’s some work going on to add new triggers and actions to the littleBits IFTTT channel. Now that’s something to look forward to next week!

I wonder what they’ll add?

Romos I and II side by side

Romo 1 and 2 side by side
Romo 1 and 2 side by side

It’s interesting to see these two devices side by side and compare the quite startling differences between them. It isn’t just size, it’s build quality and finish, and, basically, everything!

Quite amazing really. It’s a shame the Romotive seem to have now vanished off the face of the earth.

In advance of next year’s new stories, Big Finish have given us this, which was nice. Only a short story, just an hour, but even so it’s nice to get another Blake’s 7 story before the end of this year. So I’m looking forward to hear it soon. Very soon!

This was the last in the trilogy and was not only an incredible performance, but also a fantastic story in its own right and a great end to the trilogy itself. If you ever get a chance to see this trilogy I would strongly recommend it.

And Finally, the first new episode of Torchwood is here

I was a fan of the series when it first came out and watch all of it I think. Towards the end I think it lost something, so I was really glad to hear that Big Finish were going to do something with it. I think it’ll improve with them.

So the first new episode is out, and I couldn’t help myself but get it.
