The Sound Tank: DJ Weapon Of Mass Temptation
As technology gets more advanced every day, we can do cooler things with lesser technology, if that makes any sense. The computers of today have enabled pretty much anyone to create simple drag-and-drop music that they can play for their friends and loved ones even in real-time. It's pretty much jus ...
All Featured R2-D2 Lego Build Is A Pure Wonder
By now we should all be used to seeing Star Wars stuff featured in all different shapes and forms. Being surprised is no longer on our list of emotions. Well, it actually happens once in a while that we find something that is really out of the ordinary, and of course, that is when we jump on it like ...
The One Man Multitrack Star Wars Soundtrack
After you have watched all of the Star Wars movies, you pretty much come to expect some kind of awesome soundtrack and original music from them. If you were to hear it somewhere, you would know exactly what you were listening to just from the way the music was created and the vibe it expresses. That ...
Audio Gaming: Pew Pew Is Still Packing A Punch
I just love it when someone thinks outside the box for a change. We're already seeing all of these first person shooters packed up on the shelves at the game store. Do we really need another game just like the sequel before it? I mean, sure, it has better graphics and a better or different story ...
HeadBanger: The First Sweatband Headphones Are Here
With a landslide of headphone designs at our disposal, we are always trying to find the ones that suit us the best. Sometimes they are too uncomfortable and sometimes they just don't punch that bass to the expected satisfaction that we're after. In the hunt for the very best, we seem to go through ...
Voiceprint: Create A Picture Of Your Voice
Have you ever thought about what the visual representation of your voice looks like? What would that sound look like if it were painted on a canvas? A lot of us save special audio clips. When we play them, they give us a certain feeling inside. Sound is very powerful. It's similar to when we li ...
“The Sounds of Star Wars” Book! It’s Pure Awesomeness!
I love to read. Even when there is online stuff that is interesting to read, I still enjoy reading books, especially the books that are made into a movie. Most of my friends read the book versions of movies before they actually watch the film. I don't really mind watching the movie and then readi ...
Kampong Cuckoo Clock: The Wackiest Clock In The World
I really can't say that we've had the annoyance of a cuckoo clock in our family history. I guess we've never been fond of the fact that it would be a good thing to be scared half to death every hour. Some people obviously like the feeling of hearing their life tick away, and to be reminded that ye ...
Frostie: Future Design Puts Sound To Your Air Guitar
Working with music, I often come across a lot of people who think they are the next big thing. Sometimes they are better than others, but there is always a reason why artists like Michael Jackson, Madonna and Celine Dion are world renowned, and it hasn't got much to do with luck. The world is full ...
Wrap-a-Nap: Part Pillow, Part Blindfold Makes You Look…
The world is filled with super cool inventions and ideas. All you really have to do is to take a look around you, and I am sure you will at least find a couple of hundred inventions that you don't even think about during your everyday chores. The fact is that when something has passed the boundari ...
A Guilty Pleasure for Geeks: The Star Wars Plush Toy!
Toys are no longer just for kids, they are now for grownups too. I have friends and family members that collect unique figurines and action figures that are very expensive, and they keep them in mint condition. They even dedicate an entire room to them, or they have custom made casings to display ...
Fart Silencer: As Weird As You Imagine It To Be!
As odd and uncomfortable as this subject might seem, it's just one of those topics that is too hilarious not to cover. Before I continue, just know this device is as odd as you imagine, and it goes exactly where you might guess it would go. So, now that we have that cleared up, we can move on to t ...
Inception Trailer: Now Entirely In Acappella!
Inception is still in the theaters and doing quite well (8th on the box office top 100 list as of 09/11-2010) despite the fact that is was released 56 days ago. It's just about to surpass the most successful Matrix Reloaded that was part of the three movie series. I think few can say that Inceptio ...
Who Says You Can’t Play Guitar With A… Shovel!
There are many instruments that have been subject to re-thinking and re-design. Some have turned out to be pure flops, while others have lingered on in our minds as cool. However, usually we don't see many odd instruments making it up on the stage, at least not with the popular artists around the ...
Weird Gadgets: Flame Throwing Trombone
When people decide to create something new and original, whether it be a new invention or just a mod of something already existing, they usually go for something at least moderately understandable. I mean, for example, people may turn a cellphone into something steampunk or maybe even a clock into ...
