My original blog about making music on mobile

PalmSounds would have been 15 today

Posted by on in Mobile Applications, Music, UncategorizedLeave a comment

It seems odd to me that my original blog would have turned 15 years old today. Odd and slightly sad that it is no longer an ongoing thing. Like all good things, it naturally came to an end. If that were not the case, it would have been a cause for celebration. But perhaps it still should be. There were a lot of high points from my long journey with PalmSounds. I made a lot of friends. I saw a lot of people get a huge amount of enjoyment and satisfaction from using mobile devices to make music, and I saw some truly amazing technology during those years.

To mark the occasion I thought I would remember some of those high points, and share a few of them with you. Like talking at Roli’s ‘modern music industry‘ event.

And meeting Roger Linn at another event at their offices. Which was an unexpected treat.

PalmSounds brought me to Heart n Soul too. Which was an amazing experience for me with many highlights. Again, I won’t list all of them, there are simply too many, but the events we did were truly incredible experiences.

  • Setting out iPads
  • The Sound Lab
  • Ototo at the Play Space
  • SoundLab Play Space
  • Rhinegold Media - Music Teacher Awards - 2016

And those were just some of the high points. There were so many more.

So I’m at CDM now

I’ve been meaning to mention this and just haven’t gotten around to it as yet, at least not here anyway. So, PalmSounds is kind of on hold as I’ve moved writing my mobile content to CDM now. I think it’s a good move. It means that mobile music content will hopefully get a much bigger audience, and as things move and converge I believe CDM will be a better place to see that through.

Actually the old PalmSounds mobile music app directory is quite handy for old Palm OS apps

That and the Palmorama library which has a lot of good stuff in it too. Of course a lot of those apps have gone and a lot of links lead to non-existent web sites, but then it was made in 2007, so what can you expect?

Say hello to the all new PalmSounds

If you don’t follow PalmSounds then you probably don’t know that I’ve been tinkering with it and I’ve now moved it over to WordPress. It’ll take a little while to get all sorted, there’s still a fair amount to do, but it’s a good start and it’s going to be much better once it’s fully up and running.
