03/22/2005 05:04 PMWith GarageBand 2, you can create exciting songs quickly and easily
using the music loops that come with Apple's music-creation
program--even if you know nothing at all about writing music. In this
excerpt, we'll cover the process of putting together and editing a
song as well as working with a loop. The ditty we'll create throughout
article may be simple, but it will cover a lot of territory about
GarageBand.

04/16/2005 09:26 PMAnyone using an Apple will have a special treat in store for them.
Trent Reznor from the Nine Inch Nails has released the full-tracked
GarageBand Format of their song, "The Hands That Feeds". This is a
first as far as we know. Here is the info direct from Trent and you
can download the song from MacMegaSite.
For quite some time I've
been interested in the idea of allowing you the ability to tinker
around with my tracks - to create remixes, experiment, embellish or
destroy what's there. I tried a few years ago to do this in shockwave
with very limited results.
After spending some quality time
sitting in hotel rooms on a press tour, it dawned on me that the
technology now exists and is already in the hands of some of you. I
got to work experimenting and came up with something I think you'll
enjoy.
What I'm giving you in this file is the actual multi-track
audio session for "the hand that feeds" in GarageBand format. This is
the entire thing bounced over from the actual Pro Tools session we
recorded it into. I imported and converted the tracks into AppleLoop
format so the size would be reasonable and the tempo flexible.
So...
You need a Macintosh and you need GarageBand 2.0. If you
have a newer Mac, you already have the software. The more RAM you have
the better. I did this on a PowerBook 1.67 w/ 2G RAM but it has been
running on far less powerful systems.
Drag the file over to your
hard disk and double click it. Hit the space bar. Listen.
Change
the tempo. Add new loops. Chop up the vocals. Turn me into a woman.
Replay the guitar. Anything you'd like.
I gave this to my crew
and band to test out and all work effectively stopped for a while -
it's fun to mess around with. I've now heard a country version of the
track as well as an abstract Latin interpretation (thanks, Leo).
There are some copyright issues involved, so read the notice that
pops up. Giving this away is an experiment. I'm interested to see what
comes of it, what issues are raised and what the results are.
Have fun-
Trent Reznor

Warner Music Tries (And Fails) To Make
Friends With Music Bloggers
08/16/2004 06:48 AMMP3 blogs have been getting a lot of attention lately. The blogs,
which usually focus on certain genres of music with the idea to
highlight or expose certain new or obscure acts to a wider audience
are growing in popularity. They often post an entire MP3 as well.
However, it appears that some of the attention directed at these blogs
made it to some executives at Warner Brothers Records. In a moment of
enlightenment (considering typical record company reaction), instead
of trying to shut these sites down, they decided to see what would
happen if they embraced them. Someone from Warner
contacted a number of
these blogs, including an MP3 from a band they wanted to promote.
This is somewhat surprising, as many of the sites certainly expected
to get sued before they received MP3s from a major label. Still, the
effort had its problems. The musician had already been featured
months ago on some of the sites, and didn't fit at all with the focus
of some of the other sites. Plus, the fear of looking like record
company lackeys didn't appeal to many of the sites. Even worse,
though, was that on the one site that did post the tracks, a number of
out-of-place comments began appearing talking about how "awesome" the
band was. A quick check of the IP addresses of the posters, though,
showed they came from... Warner Brothers. So, while it's really great
that they're actually trying to embrace these sorts of promotions,
they still need to learn a thing or two about dealing with bloggers.
Still, it's clearly a step forward from an industry that hasn't made
many steps in that direction recently.

We missed this last week, but if you can watch this with a straight
face, full with the knowledge that it's produced by Hitachi,
there might be something seriously wrong with you. Especially when the

possibly the most accessible White Paper I've ever seen, and does a
great job explaining pernpendicular data storage as a way to
counteract the super-paramagnetic effect. IBM would have

"In "Cellpho

English engineers have found a way for groups of people to

and his colleagues at Queen Mary College (QMC) have developed the
"daisyphone" software that let will groups of people phone into a
mobile number and work together to improvise short, looping tunes." My blog
gives you more details on the project and includes a screen capture of
the creation of some school kids after using the software. You can try daisyphone by

Shocker: People Realize That Mobile
Carriers Won't Make Money From Music
04/15/2005 04:49 AMFor quite some time, a bunch of folks have been pointing out that the
mobile phone operators are being somewhat idiotic in their belief that
they
they
can be music and media moguls. They got this idea in their head
once ringtones started to take off, and rather than thinking they
might just be a fad, both the music industry and the mobile operators
start drooling over how much money they think they're going to make --
when neither of them seem to actually understand the other's business
very much. While the theme of the last few months in the mobile world
seemed to be unquestioned acceptance that "content is king" it appears
the backlash is starting, as even the folks at Business Week are
realizing
the mobile operators will
never make much money by selling music directly. The article
points out what everyone always seems to forget. Even for Apple, the
clear leader in selling music online,
selli
ng music is a loss leader. In other words, the carriers would do
better to team up with someone (such as Apple) to handle selling
music, and they should just be happy with the increased usage. Of
course, instead of that, the operators are complaining that
iTune
s on phones will take revenue away from them. And, of course,
this doesn't even touch on issues like network over-capacity and the
fact that
people don't
want different music services on their phones and on their
computers. Between the recording industry and the mobile operators,
about the only thing you can bet on is that both industries' short
term greed, and total lack of understanding of what users want, is
likely to screw up any offerings for quite a few years.
