'What you hear' recording in Windows 7 with X-Fi cards and some Pants

2012-02-01T00:41:00.005Z

'What do you hear' ?Nothing! If anyone else is having trouble getting the 'stereo mix' or 'what you hear' to work in Windows 7, Here's the basic solution, plus an extra problem I faced and one way to get around it. I've read a lot of blogs / forums /tech help that give the basic solution, but few seem to realise that as well as windows 7 disabling the function, so have creative on a few of their

Wiki - sopa / pipa blackout - what it means for music artists

2012-01-18T12:17:00.000Z

Heres how I feel about the wiki / google etc blackout in response to the tight proposed new legislation's by pipa / sopa to enforce tough restrictions on major sights on what they can and cannot share and what public can and cannot view / post. In theory, at a basic level I agree with pipa/sopa - . Of course you should not be able to upload or download material / software / video / music etc

Cher Lloyd - 'X Factor Better when I was in it'

2011-12-14T09:53:00.000Z

I love the media! (i.e. tabloid journalism) NOT! 1st it was their utter twisting of what Jeremy Clarkson said (see previous post) and now they are doing the same to Cher Lloyd. For those that don't watch X Factor uk. She came runner up last year to Matt Cardle and has arguably had a more successful career so far since. This is not about whether or not I like Cher or her music or anything like

Funny CV review

2011-12-13T23:00:00.000Z

Well, thought I would share this one as it's amusing and vaguely music / entertainment related as you will see! I saw a Job advertised and in order to apply for it I had to upload my cv to a job site ( having made sure I unchecked any boxes allowing sharing to other sites). They obviously ignored this totally because I got a 'thank you for registering / sending your cv to us' from 4 other

The Clarkson Effect

2011-12-11T13:39:00.002Z

Right! I am getting totally pissed off with the comments online about supporting Clarksons view on public sector workers (shoot them and their kids) and also the opposite, about people angry at him for saying it. heres the truth people It's the freaking MEDIA!!! He was on the show for an hour and the 20 minutes previous to the comment he was supporting the public sector. He said it as a '

Is music Dead?

2011-12-01T10:10:00.002Z

"Is music dead?" As a music lecturer, I often pose students questions like this to instigate vibrant discussion and research for a thesis or presentation.These are of course, many different ways to approach such a question, much of which would be based on personal opinion and musical preferences, but must be backed up by references and examples as appropriate set against the presented criteria.

'Enjoy the silence' and 'The life of a crafty pebble'

2011-11-16T23:32:00.006Z

Enjoy the silence? .. Thought I'd better post something here as I havn't for quite some time. Things tend to get in the way! I've been working on a new project at www.pebblecraft.com - (the site isn't really open yet, It's in early stages). Just a little art 'n' craft idea. I used to paint lead soldiers (sold in Harrods btw) and thought I'd try it out on making personalised pebbles. It takes

The X Factor UK 2011 - Louis finally lost his marbles

2011-10-03T12:47:00.003+01:00

After last nights show (2nd October) , which was rather bizarre to say the least, I feel I must add my own comments on the decisions made. First of all, I am not going to go much into my opinion on whether or not the show is valid , good , bad, ruining the industry, pushing unprepared people into the limelight, is it light entertainment or serious career changing, etc etc. Just look at msn's

Subculture - Stop Modernists ft. Chris Lowe (Pet Shop Boys) (New Order Cover)

2011-09-18T00:58:00.003+01:00

Apparently this has been out a while but I admit I have neglected the psb web site for a while ( sorry Neil!) Any true psb fan ( and New Order fan) would go WOW to know of this song. Chris is doing full vocals , yes sung vocals on a New order track, 'subculture' , produced by Swiss DJ's /producers ' Stop modernists'. Wow! The PSB's have a close connection with New order, musically and

Reaper v4 visual updates (free DAW)

2011-09-15T11:09:00.001+01:00

Recently I updated my version of Reaper (3.78) up to the latest version (4.0) which has now already been updated to v.4.02 with a couple of small tweaks. For those that don't know, Reaper is a free to use, fully functional music workstation, similar to that of Logic (mac only) and cubase etc. The main difference being is that they kindly give you the full fully working version, totally

'21' by Adele

Soundtrack for 'The most incredible thing' by The Pet Shop Boys

2011-09-14T14:04:00.001+01:00

Review of the Soundtrack album for The most incredible thing by the Pet Shop Boys. First of all let me make two things clear. 1) I am a massive PSB fan and have almost everything they released. 2) I went to see the show a couple of months ago as a treat for myself and my wife. We went to the final night with the best seats and saw Neil and stood next to David Walliams having a drink at the
