living the digital audio way of life.
rotflmao – full quote: What has been shown in court today is that the prosecutor cannot prove that the .torrent files he is using as evidence actually used The Pirate Bay’s tracker. Many of the screenshots being used clearly state there is no connection to the tracker. Additionally, prosecutor Håkan Roswall didn’t adequately explain the [...]
ha, don’t believe the hype. looks like someone just made a buck or two by announcing a secret daft punk show this friday (dafthidden 09 tour) in shanghai via facebook and selling tickets in advance… and it also looks like the whole internet is now after the two scammers thomas ramirez and and andy da [...]
ok, it’s still a bit basic at the moment, but hey, it’s a start ;-)

i really love my motu traveler. but THIS amazon offer gives a whole new meaning to that and therefore is true rock’n roll. rotfl. edt: how sad, it’s already fixed and the plastic vagina picture was removed before i could take a screenshot edit by disko: thanks to MIT, we do have a screenshot on the [...]
omfg. caution: rant. ok, sure, i like macs. and this actually holds true for a lot of apple products. sometimes i’m even tempted to say i love them. but after using “ibm compatible PCs” and their predecessors for more than a decade before getting my first apple computer, this is not something religious but just [...]
yepp. really. sid vicious, bass player of the first casted boygroup called “the sex pistols” is dead. since EXACTLY 30 years. just for your information. (actually, not a sad thing. being the bass player doesn’t mean that he could actually play bass. lemmy from motörhead tried to teach him, but no chance. lemmy being dead, [...]
sad day, sad news: Charlie Cooper, 50% of US based electronica duo Telefon Tel Aviv died according to a blog post Joshua made today on their myspace site. the binary punks want to express their sincere condolences – being laptop rockers, sample freaks and enthusiastic ableton live users, too, Telefon Tel Aviv shared a lot [...]
aaah, it just feels nice if two totally unrelated topics from our little binary punk universe suddenly connect: last year we wrote about Johannes Kreidler and his physical denial of service attack against the german GEMA and only a few days ago we happily announced the birth of microsoft’s songsmith “auto-composer”. and know what? Kreidler [...]
ok, after all this futuristic stuff it’s time to go back to the rootz and think about the basics of pop. enjoy a lowbrow break and a little lesson about one of the most famous chrod progressions by the comedy rock band Axis Of The Awesome
omfg. last year was the first year in the ableton history without a new major release – now the information about live 8 has finally gone public during the NAMM and even for me it is just breathtaking to see all the stuff that has been cooking during the last year in the headquarter over [...]
you know, every so often while roaming the berlin streets being totally drunk, shaking my ass in some illegal club or just doing some hookers and blow at strange private parties, people will come over saying “eeaaayyyh, dom, old synth rapist, i always wanted to ask you about that FM synthesis thing, i mean, what [...]
aaaah, every day simply has to start with a good refreshing paroxysm of laughter. today’s thanks for causing it go out to danny rampling and his book this is exactly what i was looking for. i’m so glad i found it.

Exactly since 60mins. If there’s an application the binary punks both love to death than it surely has to be this little beast. Get it while it’s fresh…
need more education? anyone? anyone? bueller? ok, stumbled over two interesting papers written by Hans T. Zeiner-Henriksen, PhD-student at the Department of Musicology, University of Oslo: the most significant beat is taking a deeper look into the history and the development of the bass drum sound in dance tracks during the last decades from [...]
