Until Franchise buys DJ hero so I can go over and review it for myself, this New York Times article by SETH SCHIESEL will have to do.
“Over all the game includes more than 90 new mixes using more than 100 songs, fromEminem to Jay-Z (who consulted on the game) to Herbie Hancock, Beck, Isaac Hayes, Young MC, David Bowie, Tupac Shakur, Tears for Fears, Blondie and 50 Cent.”
Sample, record, create and share. We will see if it lives up to all the hype.
I just started watching this show and it is an amazing show. How did no one tell me about this when it was on the air. I guess someone did, i just wasn’t paying attention. But now you can buy the whole series for $178! Thats a whole $100 off! Seriously though, this is a great show and this is a great gift, I bought two. I don’t know who i am going to give it to as a gift, but you all better watch out. I would say that this show is of caliber of the wire, I know, but it is.

My enthusiasm for innovation through technology is second to none, but thanks to TheCoolHunter, I have found my limits. Knowing that hip-hop artists and advocates are inherently loyal to “the old school”(almost to fault might I add), I trust that a touch-screen turntable is only likely to only catch on for the longer running mix DJs spinning to their pill popping crowd.
My adversity to seeing a set of touch-screen turntables in a ‘Da Kloob”, doesn’t mean I wouldn’t jump at the chance to test drive a pair. Click the image above to read how the creator, Dan Treichel, adapted a Numark HDX Platter to a touch-screen interface.
Basic behind the scenes short, but this one contains several detail movie shots of Dr.Manhattan.
There is a lot of speculation circulating on the internets about the new Presidential Ride, aka Cadillac One (shown above). For obvious security reasons, none of these features can ever really be confirmed, but some research on our behalf reveals that there is a consensus amongst several respected tech sites about Cadillac One. Of course, the true test of any security automobile, is how it stands up to the EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle. For those of you who may have never heard of the EM-50, the pinnacle of American military innovation and covert recreational engineering, I demand you add the military documentary Stripes (starring Bill Murray) to your Netflix queue, have it mailed to you, go to your mailbox, open red envelope, insert disc, watch, and then return to this article. Go ahead…I’ll wait.
For those of you who are more cultured and educated on American history, read on after the jump and compare the features of Cadillac One to the GMC’s EM-50.
You may heard of the new presidential Cadillac, but have you seen the new presidential Suburban in action?
HD projector, MP3 Player, Translator…a clock. This would be an iPhone Killer but in my opinion it is missing one major feature. Click the photo to explore the phone and you will see what I mean. On a side note, the people working for Nova Scotia on this one are brilliant.
Being detective Greggs from the hit show, the wire, can only get you so far, but she almost made it to the front of the inaguartion!
Sonja Sohn, who played Detective Shakima Gregg on The Wire, did everything in her power to get close to President Barack Obama at yesterday’s inauguration ceremony. “Let me tell you something: I started with the silver ticket” — the rear-most standing area, near the National Mall — “because, you know what, I forgot to ask the people that I know who are kinda high up. So a week ago, I got a silver ticket. That I traded in for a purple ticket [the next-closest standing area]. I was in the purple area and I honestly did slip under a railing into the handicapped area. And then I slipped under another railing into the yellow area [the second-closest seated area].”
But it wasn’t just the powers of moving undetected, which she presumably picked up acting in The Wire, that Sohn deployed. She also used her special in with law enforcement. “Luckily a cop recognized me — cops love the show. And he just let me pass into the yellow area. And [as] everybody’s leaving, I got to the front.” We’d like to have seen Jim True-Frost accomplish such a thing. Incredibly, though, this did not work with all of D.C.’s finest: When we tried to dodge a line heading away from the Capitol, a female cop stopped Sohn. “Hey, my sister! My name is Sonja Sohn. I respect your job so much. I was on The Wire. My friends and I were going to go down this hill, all right?” “Ma’am,” the officer replied, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Then she gently nudged us through a gate with the rest of the cattle. “Damn,” said Sohn, moving along. “I really thought I was gonna hook that up.”
