Miami, Miami, Miami // WMC Wrap Up

Ok, well this doesn't really qualify as a wrap up. I just happened to be in Florida on business and decided to make a detour to Miami Beach on Saturday of WMC. My stay was brief - only 3 hours. The truth is that I parked illegally and was terrified that my rental would end up getting towed. :(

While on Miami Beach I hit Collins Ave and eventually the the Beatport Pool Party with a barrage of several hundred CD's of my current promo, Grooving Like a Muthafucka. Miami was complete enjoyable madness and if you were there then you can appreciate what I'm talking about. Ultra Fest was the only event on my target and I was truly interested in checking out Cilly C play. It just never happened. I met some interesting people who definitely share my same passion for music which made my short excursion all that much more enjoyable. For those of you who got the CD, nJOY.

An interesting side note is that I'm almost certain I bumped into BT and earlier that evening I swore I crossed paths with Albert Einstein. Honestly guys, I was sober! I had to make a pilgrimage back to Tampa that same night.

Maybe Detroit?!

Play In Style or Styleflip it!


This is interesting. You upload your own custom designs and images and create your very own, unique style that sets you apart from the rest. Once you finish the design process your image will be transformed into a one of a kind, sophisticated, protective layer that becomes one with your gear until you decide to change it up with something fresh. Customize the look and style of your gear. Styleflip it!

Media Player Online - discowhorePlayer

Just added streaming capabilities. The media player is up on top and is embedded into the site. This will change soon into a pop up window. For the moment you can listen to a LoFi stream of "Groovin Like A Muthafucka". A few more mixes will be added this weekend and then starting next Friday look for weekly webcasts.
Enjoy!

iPod Scratch


...2 iPhones and a microphone! Who needs Traktor Scratch now when you can rock the crowd with your iPhone. MixMeister Scratch is the DJ scratch tool for iPod Touch and iPhone. Now if someone can only create a wifi or bluetooth controller for Traktor Scratch via iPod Touch, I'm sure magichew and others on the Native Intsruments forum would go nuts.
Realistically this makes the iPhone or Touch into a nice toy. I wouldn't rush out to buy a second iPod, yet.
