Looking back at my sounds: Vertigo

A track made on my iPhone 3G using iSequence, JR Hexatone Pro, Noise IO Pro, Star Guitar, Star Piano, Star Melody and Beatmaker to pull all the samples together.

It isn’t a very complex track, I was just experimenting with putting loops together from lots of different apps.

Yep, that was the day I met Prince Edward

Always good to meet new people of course, but it was very nice to see HRH Prince Edward visit our SoundLab stand at the Liberty Festival. We was actually quite interested in what we were doing as well which was nice. In fact, he even took my business card. I wonder if that’ll lead anywhere?

And what a day that was with SoundLab at the Liberty Festival

We had a great time, that’s for sure, but it was exhausting. The turn out we had was amazing too. So many people playing our Moog Thereminis for the first time, it was really amazing to see, in fact almost as amazing as the AlphaSphere, which was truly superb and attracted loads of attention.

And it won’t be long before all of that kit gets another outing at the Beautiful Octopus Club this Saturday.

Edinburgh Fringe: Beowulf The Blockbuster

This was a truly wonderful one man show. Executed beautifully with incredible craftsmanship. I loved every minute of the show and I can’t think of anything even remotely negative to say about it at all. Perhaps if you were expecting a performance of Beowulf that was very close to the text you might be disappointed, but if you’d been to the fringe before you probably wouldn’t have those kind of expectations of anything.

I loved it, and I’ll certainly be looking out for something by the same company next year.
