Teaser of Daft Punk's Tron Legacy soundtrack

I don't know if I've mentioned it already but Daft Punk are scoring the Tron Legacy film and you can here a 6 minute teaser here: http://www.waltdisneystudiosawards.com/tronlegacy/music.php

Some of it's actually quite orchestral rather than digital. "The duo assembled a symphony of eighty-five world-class musicians in London and recorded the orchestra at AIR Lyndhurst Studios, Britain's premier scoring facility." Which also might explain this:

iPad Djay

Ooh I love the idea of this app for the iPad. Maybe I should get one after all? Djay on the iPad obviously has it's flaws compared to a multi sound-carded Mac; being able to play music from different channels being the main one. But audio beatmatching aside I still think this is great and the auto beat-matching feature makes it great for novices like myself.

iPod nano watch

At first glance you'd be forgiven in thinking that this idea is a bit shit. But the idea that a watch is also an iPod, Multi-Touch, color display, long battery life, MP3, radio, photos, pedometer and Nike+ is quite cool. I love my iPhone but it's a bit of a pain holding on to whilst running unless you get one of thos stupid armbands. And you'll never be stuck without music. And it comes in red too! If you want one pop over to kickstarter.

Tee Synth

Today I put on my synth Tee which has various Moogs, Korgs and the like. It looks cool (I think) but none of them actually work. Never fear ThinkGeek has the solution; a wearable synth and amp. Genius. Dry ice optional. More at Engadget.

Get well soon

Think Creature Comforts meets embarrassing bodies "Get Well Soon" makes you wince as you laugh. It's based on real interviews conducted with regulars at the The Clock House on Leather Lane in East London, the project captures examples of personal injury including impalings, drive-by assaults, sex injuries, and even people ironing their own legs. Ouch.
The project premieres in London at Shoreditch club XOYO on 2nd December, but if you can’t wait to wince, check out a short selection of clips above.
Thanks Design Week.

See me Godammit!

I know cyclists are despised on the roads, but this time of year it's really tough. First you have to contend with the weather, then there's pedestrians and cars pulling out in front of you. I've got 2 bright lights and now lots of reflective Scotchlite stickers (including the design above) and STILL I'm invisible. I've just added red LED valve caps that come on when it's dark and there's movement. I'm hoping I'm going to be a bit more visible now with red illuminated flashing wheels like this guy below...

Derezzed

Daft Punk's latest tune 'Derezzed' is from the new Tron Legacy film I keep harping on about. It looks and sounds so good I can't wait until it comes out next month.

This is a still of Daft Punk and their tune Derezzed from the new Tron Legacy soundtrack. Apologies for not embedding the video directly, but I don't know how to do that on an iPhone. I'll post it tomorrow.

Robot Romance "I'm here" by Spike Jonze

I've just come across this short 30 minute film by Spike Jonze. Jonze is an idol of mine ever since I first saw the Beastie Boys 'Sabotage' and Weezer's 'Buddy Holly' music videos. He's also the main man behind TV show Jackass and full-length-feature-films 'Where the wild things are' and 'Being John Malcovich'. 

'I'm here' is about an alternative world where robots live among the rest of the human population. It has an eerie sub-context that although sometimes dark, makes you wish the world was really like this.

It's also free to watch over at imheremovie.com 

“Wendy, I’m home!”

If we don't, remember me is a great Tumblr site of hypnotic Film GIFs. This is my favoutrite from the Shining.
